Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Before and After of a Waterguard Installation in Chilliwack BC.

This project was all about making the crawl space drier, healthier, and more comfortable. We installed a dehumidifier and air purification system to help control humidity and reduce damp conditions that can lead to mould and musty odors. The system drains safely into the existing plumbing and is supported on a stand for proper performance.

All wood surfaces were treated to help prevent mould growth, and the old fiberglass insulation along the exterior rim joist and wall framing was removed and disposed of. New wall insulation was installed and carefully sealed to reduce drafts and improve energy efficiency.

In the end, the crawl space is now cleaner, drier, and better insulated, helping protect the home and giving the homeowners greater comfort and peace of mind.

This project focused on replacing several window wells to improve drainage and better protect the home from water intrusion. All old materials were removed and properly disposed of, and excess soil and debris were cleared to create proper clearance below each window and bump-out area. Clean stone was added to help water flow away efficiently.

New window wells were built using treated lumber for durability and long-term performance. A drainage layer was installed along the exterior of each well to direct water away from the foundation, with a clean finish along the top edge. Each area was then backfilled with drain rock to support proper drainage.

We completed a window well improvement project to help with drainage and overall appearance. First, we removed the old window well materials and cleared away any excess soil and debris to create proper space below the window. We then added clean stone at the bottom to help water drain away properly.

Next, we built a new window well using treated wood and installed a drainage mat along the outside to help guide water away from the foundation. The top of the mat was neatly finished with a trim piece to keep everything secure and tidy. Once everything was in place, we used the original soil to backfill the area, leaving it clean and functional.

This project focused on replacing the old window well and improving drainage around the basement window. The existing materials were removed, excess soil and debris were cleared away, and clean stone was added beneath the window to help water drain more effectively.

A new window well was built using durable treated lumber, with a drainage layer installed along the exterior to help direct water away from the foundation. The area was then neatly finished and backfilled with the existing soil.

The result is a stronger, cleaner window well with improved drainage that helps reduce water buildup and better protect the home.
