Before & After Photos

The home was built with block walls, a poured concrete floor with a round sump pit. The pit included a pedestal sump pump and no lid to seal it. Over time the walls developed seepage as shown and the basement felt damp.

Advanced Basement Systems installed their Water Guard basement drainage with a vapour barrier to take care of the water vapour on the walls. The owner elected to use the existing sump pit with a new pump, sealed lid and battery back-up from us. The sump is now sealed as it should be, so the basement will have a chance to dry out!

If you have an old sump system and would like to upgrade, give Advanced Basement Systems a call.

Before:

When a sump pump is included in a crawl space it must be treated the same way as a full basement. It should be checked regularly to ensure it works properly, the drainage lines need to be clear to move water away and it should be a sealed lid to keep moisture from the space.

In this case, the sump system was built into a dirt floor with an open pit.

After:

Advanced Basement Systems installed their Clean Space encapsulation over the dirt floor to seal the area and they installed a new pump and airtight lid to complete the job.

Give Advanced Basement Systems a call if you have a Crawl Space that needs attention.

When this newer home in Glencoe started to experience a small leak in their basement they reached out to another company to help fix their problem. As a few years passed, they noticed the problem didn't go away and decided to call Advanced Basement Systems to permanently fix the leak. The problem was solved with our WaterGuard interior drainage system, ThermalDry wall and our SuperSump system. 

This leaking basement was only getting worse for these Rodney homeowners until they decided to call Advanced Basement Systems. Advanced installed ThermalDry wall to create a waterproof barrier while keeping the heat inside the home. We also installed our Triple Safe Sump Pump to provide three levels of protection and create peace of mind for this customer. 

Don't let the small things ruin your day or home.

Small cracks in the basement walls can eventually lead to moisture build up, ruined finished materials and mould.
