Foundation Wall Leaking - Portland, OR

This home had a basement with leaking foundation walls. For years they had been applying a waterproof paint over the walls, but the water kept coming back. The homeowners were ready for a long term solution, and turned to John's Waterproofing. 

Flooding Basement in Portland, OR

This basement had water coming in, the homeowners quickly boxed and bagged up the items in the space and moved it to the portion that had remained dry. They called up John's Waterproofing to get a free inspection and estimate to see how they could solve this problem. We installed a full perimeter WaterGuard drainage system to grade the collected water to a TripleSafe sump pump. The walls then had BrightWall paneling installed to keep any wall moisture directed down into the drain system to be dispelled. To complete the job we installed a SaniDry Dehumidifier. 

Making the Basement Semi-Finished in Portland, OR

This homeowners basement was used as a utility space and general storage. The walls had cracked old waterproof paint, and water seeped in along the floor, leading to musty and damp odors throughout. To get the space to be usable and enjoy a semi-finished look, the homeowners called up John's Waterproofing. We installed a full interior drainage system using our WaterGuard, which will collect and channel the water to the newly installed TripleSafe sump pump. Along the walls we then installed our BrightWall paneling which is shingled into the new drain system so any moisture or water is safely collected. BrightWall is a waterproof material which will not mold or mildew, and brightens the space, giving it a semi-finished look once fully installed. To finish the project we installed a SaniDry dehumidifier.

SuperSump Plus Keeps Homes Dry - Portland, OR

No homeowner wants to experience water intrusion. It can cause all kinds of issues to the home like mold growth, wood rot, and even impact the structural integrity of the home. At John's Waterproofing, we take pride in ensuring water can't get into basements by installing a proper drainage system that keeps water out. This involves installing a SuperSump Plus sump pump and WaterGuard drainage pipe. The WaterGuard system gets installed first by jackhammering a trench along the interior perimeter of the basement. It is lined with gravel so that water can easily filter through and help to prevent clogging. The purpose of this system is so it can collect water that tries to enter and act as a safe passageway to the SuperSump Plus sump pump. This sump pump is what takes all that collected water and can securely push it out and away from the homes foundation. It is designed with a heavy duty Zoeller pump so that it is capable of controlling mass amounts of water at a time. With these two systems installed, we can ensure that the basement will stay dry and healthy all year round.
