Before & After Photos

Problem:  This below grade entrance was causing problems for these homeowners as it was built without a proper drainage system in place. The area was wet, a slip and fall hazard in the winter months, and the concrete floor was flaking away.  

Solution: Our specialists repaired the concrete, installed a trench drain in the floor of the entrance and directed the outlet to drain in the newly updated TripleSafe Sump Pump system.

Now the homeowners are once again enjoying the benefits of their below grade entrance!

Problem: The home had a high moisture content in the crawl space. The exposed earth allowed year-round humidity to cause severe damage to the wood beam.

Solution: Install new support columns to hold up the reinforced beam, along with the Clean Space vapour barrier to seal off the home from the earth and finally a high-performance dehumidifier to allow the space to be conditioned and healthy.

Before

The house has a crack in the poured concrete basement wall, which is a common occurrence. It does not pose as a structural issue but often times will lead to water leakage. In this home the basement was finished.

After

Advanced Basement Systems installed their crack repair system called Flexispan. The system includes a urethane sealant in the crack, a drywell under the crack to drain the water and a polyurethane sealant on the wall to prevent water from leaking through. The entire system is flexible and will move with the wall as it moves over time.

Give Advanced Basement Systems a call if you see or suspect cracks in you basement walls.

Before

The homeowners called Advanced Basement Systems when they noticed several spots of moisture along the bottom of the finished basement walls. When the drywall was removed, several wall cracks and seepage along the floor revealed the issues causing the moisture.

After

Advanced Basement Systems installed the Water Guard system to alleviate the seepage along the floor-wall joint and a Flexispan Crack Repair to the cracks near the windows. The entire system will stop the water and allow the basement to dry and become a comfortable living space again!

Give Advanced Basement Systems a call if you see moisture in your basement.

Problem: These Dutton homeowner had a major leak during the wet Spring months that resulted in their entire basement flooding.

Solution: We installed a perimeter drain in the floor along the problem basement walls. We also installed the ThermalDry® Wall system as well as our TripleSafe Sump pump system to ensure these homeowners a peace of mind come the following Spring.
