Victor Barke's Complete Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Having a previously bad experience with another contractor, this customer decided to shop around for a solution to the bowed and cracked foundation wall problem on their home. 

We provided a FREE estimate to inspect the problem, explained what causes foundations to crack and buckle over time and showed them our interior solution for foundation wall repair problems.

Moisture and frost that interact with the soil around your home causes expansion.  Expansion results in a constant inward force on your foundation until it can no longer support the pressure, causing cracking, bowing and tipping. 

Advantages of our PowerBrace Foundation Wall System allows for no disturbance to lawn and landscaping and can straighten walls safetly over time. 

Meg of Alpha, MN was concerned about water in her basement.  She had an existing draintile system that has never failed or caused any standing water, but she wanted to be able to confidently put carpet in her basement and didn't want to do that before knowing that it could be ruined by water.

Our ThermalDry flooring tile is a waterproof flooring system that has a place for water, should that ever be a factor for our customer.  The bottom of ThermalDry Flooring has pegs to create an airspace under your floor.  This keeps water vapor from getting trapped underneath your finished floor that causes odors and mold. 

ThermalDry Flooring also separates from the cold, hard and damp concrete floor, which also is a benefit to be more comfortable.  

ThermalDry Flooring is available in many different colors and styles.  Tile, carpeted, wood and traditional matting. 

Our customer in Alpha, MN opted for the traditional ThermalDry Matting, which gives the customer the option to have their own color of flooring installed above the tile system. 

This is a home in Butterfield, MN.  They wanted a type of wood flooring finish to their basement after reviewing the product line, they selected our MillCreek Waterproof Flooring with the Mahogany finish look.

This homeowner was faced with a damp and musty basement due to water seepage. He knew he could rely on us for help, as we also waterproofed his basement at his previous home. Our Design Specialist Ron went out to see which products would remedy his water issues. They decided on our WaterGuard tiling system, Cleanspace wall system, our top rated SuperSump sump pump and our buried discharge line with IceGuard. He can be confident that his basement will be dry from now on.

Darroll S. of Sleepy Eye MN contacted Complete Basement Systems to address the musty smell in the basement of his home.  In his previous home in Waseca, MN we installed a Complete system for waterproofing and he really liked the sump pump system.  We updated Daroll's sump pump system with our patented SuperSump Pump System and installed an efficient dehumidifier system that works to drain water from the unit to the sump pump system.
