Understanding the urgency to protect their home and health, they reached out to us, NV Waterproofing, for help. After contacting our Customer Care team, we scheduled a home inspection to get to the bottom of the issue.

Our skilled installation team got to work, precisely fitting the WaterGuard system and securing CleanSpace along the basement walls. It was essential for us to work efficiently and cleanly, ensuring the homeowner’s daily life was minimally disturbed. The outcome was a complete transformation of the once-damp basement into a dry, comfortable space free of that unwelcome musty odor.
