Before & After Photos

In Chelmsford, MA, this homeowner wanted to ensure their basement was waterproof before renting it out. The before photo captures the old, unreliable sump pump in dire need of an upgrade. Fast forward to our solution: the installation of our cutting-edge WaterGuard and TripleSafe Sump Pump systems, as seen in the after photo. After these systems are installed, they are cemented into place. These updates not only guarantee a dry, rentable space but embody our dedication to providing lasting solutions and exceptional customer experiences.

A homeowner in Chelmsford, Massachusetts already had one of our sump pumps installed. We had previously suggested installing perimeter drainage in order to direct the high amount of water surrounding her foundation to the sump pump. Due to certain circumstances, the homeowner opted to just have the sump pump put in at the time. Although the sump pump system is working, she now chose to install the perimeter drainage to fully optimize her waterproofing system.

We recommended installing WaterGuard perimeter drainage and CleanSpace vapor barrier to fully protect the basement. CleanSpace was applied to the walls to prevent moisture and humidity. This encapsulation system filters any moisture to the WaterGuard system. Even though the sump pump was already installed, WaterGuard is still able to be connected to it. This system sits within crushed stone and is cemented in place once installed to ensure proper flow.

After installation, our crew tested the system by pouring water into it. After seeing the system work properly, the crew met with the homeowner to perform a final walkthrough. The customer was ecstatic!

Before: Water found its way through the brick foundation walls of this Bow, NH home, leaving behind troubling efflorescence and putting the homeowner's dream of a finished basement space on hold. Notice in the before photo the visible signs of moisture distress. After: Our solution? A powerhouse trio of CleanSpace, WaterGuard, and the TripleSafe Sump Pump. As you can see in the after photo, we’ve transformed this once damp and disheartening space into a strong, dry foundation ready for finishing. Welcome to the future of your home, protected and prepared for all your plans.

A homeowner in Franklin, New Hampshire, had high relative humidity in their basement and was tired of lugging buckets of water up the stairs to empty them. They decided to call EFS for a free inspection and our Design Specialist recommended installing a SaniDry Sedona into the basement to reduce the relative humidity and have the system drain into a pump so the homeowner doesn't have to lug buckets of water up the stairs. 

The Police Department in Boscawen, New Hampshire, had water collecting in their garage from water runoff from their police vehicles.
