Photo Album: Basement Waterproofing in Wheelersburg, OH

Homeowners in Wheelersburg, OH called Mid-State Basement Systems because their partially finished basement kept flooding. This was causing damage to the bottom of the drywall and they had to remove it. Our certified inspector, Zach, visited the home to do a thorough examination of the problem and provide a free quote for a permanent repair. He proposed we install the WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system and the homeowners agreed that this sounded like the best solution. Our crew installed the drainage channels below the concrete, filled in the extra space with gravel, and poured concrete back over the system. This will catch any water coming in from underground, the walls, or above ground and drain it all to the new sump pump and out of the home.

Before - Moldy and Damp Basement

This is the basement before the waterproofing was completed. There was mold on the walls that had been painted over several times and there was efflorescence (white powder) left from water evaporating.

Before - Damaged Drywall

The drywall in the basement was ruined from water damage, so they had to remove the bottom section.

During - WaterGuard

This is when the concrete was dug out around the perimeter of the basement and the grey pieces are the WaterGuard sub-floor drains about to be installed.
