Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Transforming the Emerson School Basement into Apartments with Waterproofing and Storage Solutions for Residents

In Duluth, MN, we took on a special project, transforming a basement in an historic building—from its previous life as a school (1892-1982) to a secure, watertight foundation for new apartments. Initially, the basement mirrored its age, showing signs of wear and posing structural concerns. But as you can see in the after photo, our comprehensive solution revitalized it. Our crew installed WaterGuard® and IceGuard® for unparalleled waterproofing, the SaniDry™ Sedona for dehumidification, and a SingleSafe™ Sump Pump system ensuring the space remains dry and healthy for years to come. We wrapped the interior foundation walls in our CleanSpace® liner, dramatically improving the basement's appearance and sealing out moisture. This project not only safeguarded the building's structural integrity but also restored its potential for creative, functional spaces—showcasing our dedication to delivering reliable and lasting solutions while enhancing our customers' living environments.
