Before & After

Grosse Pointe Woods, MI Basement Reinforced and Waterproofed

A concerned homeowner in Grosse Pointe Woods, MI contacted HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair because water was getting into their basement. They were concerned about mold damaging their property and wanted to get any and all issues fixed before retirement. Cleaning up water every time they wanted to do laundry or change the furnace filter in their basement was not in their plans for the future. Additionally, they would need a dry space for storage to protect their items.


Keith, one of HomeSpec’s senior project managers, went to the home and provided a free inspection. While looking for the source and cause of the water intrusion, Keith noticed there were cracks in the basement walls which meant there were structural components to consider as well. He took thorough notes and measurements before sitting down with the homeowner to decide on a repair plan together. Keith proposed addressing both the wall cracks and waterproofing needs at the same time. The HomeSpec team would fill the cracks and then use CarbonArmor® Wall Reinforcing System to prevent the walls from moving any further. They would also install a WaterGuard® interior drainage system to capture any water and route it to a sump pump. The homeowner agreed to this plan and planned on a crew later seeing it through. This crew was led by a foreman named Jon, and the homeowner was so impressed with Jon and his team that they called in to compliment their politeness and amazing work ethic!
