Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Sandra's home in Marcellus, NY has had a wet basement problem for years. Every time it rained water seep up from underneath the floor. Sandra tried everything to fix the problem. From shop vacs to cleaning her gutters. But with all the rain we received this year something had to change. She talked to a friend who recommended she call the Basement Waterproofing experts Woodford Brothers. Our crews installed a system that will capture any water and get that water out of her basement. Right away Sandra knew her basement was different. That musty smell was gone. Now every time she hears about rain coming on the news that pit feeling in her stomach is gone. You don't have to live with the mess and heartache of water in your basement. We can fix it!

Melanie has been living in her Marcellus, NY home for nearly five years. Since moving in, she has noticed the hill in her backyard caving in, leading to water intrusion in her basement. Wanting to be proactive and protect her home from further water damage, she decided to reach out to Woodford Bros. for a free estimate for the necessary repairs. After an inspection of the problem, our Design Specialist suggested the use of the WaterGuard and TripleSafe systems to help waterproof Melanie's basement. 

WaterGuard is a French drain system that is designed to be installed below the floor slab, resting on top of the foundation footing. The system then collects water that seeps through basement walls and drains it to the sump pump. In turn, the TripleSafe sump pump provides the ultimate protection for wet basements, pumping 11,500 gallons or more on a fully charged battery. With these systems installed, Melanie can rest assured that her home's basement is permanently waterproofed and protected. 

Before tackling this pesky water intrusion issue in Marcellus, NY, finished walls were succumbing to moisture damage. As you can see in the before photo, the homeowner was indeed facing significant water intrusion. Quickly stepping in, we lined the perimeter with our reliable WaterGuard System, installed our durable CleanSpace barrier, and put in a TripleSafe Sump Pump to ensure that any future moisture would be effortlessly managed. The transformation, evident in the after photo, showcases a confidently protected basement, ready to tackle moisture. Through our adept installation, the homeowner's space is now shielded, showcasing our dedication to remarkable service and lasting solutions.

John has been in his home for a year. He decided it was time to add more usable space to his home. The only way to add a playroom in the basement was to ensure the basement floors would stay dry permanently. That's when he called Woodford Brothers. Our Design Specialist, Nick, performed a thorough inspection which led to an installation date with our foreman, Kevin. Now John has peace of mind that the basement floor will stay dry and hi quality of life will be improved now that he has more usable space in his home.
