Honest Basement Waterproofing & Sump Pump Installation Company in Ferndale, WA

We helped Gordon in Ferndale, WA, after he contacted us about his home in Ferndale. The home was new construction, but already and water leaking into the crawlspace. He was very concerned about the dampness and mold. Looking for a fix as soon as possible, we sent our inspector, Ed, out to design a waterproofing system. We set the new homeowner up long-term with drainage, sump pump, and our encapsulation system, to give him the full benefits of a dry, conditioned crawlspace. His new crawlspace will stay dry, energy efficient, and free of mold.

Gordon from Ferndale, WA, wanted to fix the crawl space in a newly built home. During heavy rain, the crawl space was flooding from groundwater. They wanted to fix it long-term to prevent structural issues later on. After calling Rainy Day, we sent Ed Upenieks, Design Specialist, to provide a thorough inspection and report his findings and solutions. We recommended installing a full-perimeter drainage system and sump pump, as well as encapsulation. With our waterproofing system, the home will stay dry and safe. 

Ryan designed a solution for a couple in Ferndale where water began leaking into their basement. We installed our SuperSump and 76 feet of our flangeless WaterGuard Interior Drainage Channel. The basement will now stay dry with no leaks in sight. 

Sara was getting a lot of water in her crawl space when it rained. They had been pumping the water out, but looking for a simple yet long-term solution to stop the leak. We cleaned out the crawl space and installed our full-perimeter drainage piping and TripleSafe Sump Pump System to keep the crawl space dry.

Ben D. from Ferndale was experiencing problems with seasonal standing water in his crawl space. Despite having it pumped out, he was still on a high water table and had high humidity. To prevent mold, humidity, and fix the standing water problem, we installed our crawl space waterproofing system. Using our CleanSpace vapor barrier, the crawl space was encapsulated to protect and seal out moisture. We installed our TripleSafe sump pump system which will rid the water from the crawl space captured from the drainage channel. The final step to this crawl space repair project was installing a SaniDry Sedona, our energy-efficient dehumidifier, keeping the humidity low and filtering the air.  

Ben no longer has to worry about standing water and is able to live in a house free from mold and moisture. As an added bonus, the new system is efficient enough to help save him on energy costs.

Judy’s Ferndale crawlspace was open and vented, leaving opportunity for pests and cold air to circulate through the home.

This will serve as a vapor barrier and protect from mold and humidity with the help of our SaniDry dehumidifier.

This Ferndale home was having problems with ground water seeping into their finished basement and the water had done damage to their flooring. The owners had a sump pump installed in the past, but it clearly was no longer working.

We replaced their inoperative sump pump with a SuperSump Pump and an UltraSump Battery Back-Up System. The SuperSump is equipped with a high-end 1/3 hp Zoeller cast iron pump capable of pumping 2,650 gallons of water an hour. The back-up system will automatically turn on if for some reason the SuperSump Pump fails to operate, like in the instance of a power outage. To direct the ground water seepage in the basement to the SuperSump, we installed WaterGuard Drainage Trenching along the interior footing of the basement walls. The WaterGuard is surrounded by gravel to filter the ground water and prevent clogging. It also features a unique flange that captures water seepage from the basement walls as well. Finally, we added a LawnScape Outlet, which is a buried discharge line that will discreetly direct the unwanted water away from the home. 

We contacted James and Lola W. after meeting them at the Northwest Washington Fair. The couple lived in a Ferndale home they had built in 1987. They mentioned the floors in their home were no longer level and wanted us to perform a free inspection and estimate. Upon inspection, we found that James and Lola’s pier pads were settling creating a void between the posts and pads. This type of settling is common in residential homes with wooden post and pier foundations and is a significant contributor to sagging floors.

To stabilize and level James and Lola’s home, we replaced all nine of their rotted wooden posts with nine of our SmartJacks. SmartJacks are highly durable galvanized steel piers that are specifically designed to stop settling. They also have an adjustable feature that allows them to raise floors back to their original level, and continue to do so if further settling occurs.
