Connecticut Basement Systems Before & After Photos

A family located in Riverside, CT expressed concerns regarding unwanted basement moisture seeping in along their basement's perimeter walls. Frustrated with needing to sweep water into an old sump pit, they reached out to the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems for assistance. 

Upon calling, the homeowners made contact with Sales Representative Vincent Orsini. After setting up a free in-home consultation, Orsini arrived at the home to diagnose the family's concerns. Providing a finalized proposal, Orsini received acceptance to begin work.

Shortly after, Foreman Antonio Diaz and his team arrived on-site to begin the installation process. Following a quick install, the basement was equipped with ample protection against further basement moisture!

A homeowner in Norwalk, CT, was getting water seepage in their basement. They called us at Connecticut Basement Systems in search of a permanent solution. One of our Service Technicians went out to view an old system they had, and he proposed our full perimeter waterproofing solution. 

Shortly after, one of our Foremen, Marcio, and his crew would install the job. They installed our dual drainage system, which consists of our DryTrak baseboard drain and a feed line, to ensure water seepage from the walls will be directed into our sump pump system. Then, they installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier on the wall to protect it from moisture and help direct water from the walls into the drain system below. Two of our TripleSafe sump pumps were installed., While only one is pictured, they will ensure the collected water will be safely pumped out of the home. Lastly, the crew installed our Sedona dehumidifier to eliminate excess moisture and prevent mold growth throughout the entire space.

Now, this entire basement will stay dry all the time, ensuring the homeowner has peace of mind! 

The ceiling of this Connecticut basement was very unattractive. Wire, pipes, and insulation were exposed to the room below. Connecticut Basement Systems recommends installing a drop ceiling when finishing basements. These allow easy access to shut off valves, wires, and pipes that lead to the rest of the home. The tiles of our drop ceilings are made of mineral wool, making them completely inorganic. Mold can only grow on organic material, so mold or mildew will never be an issue on our ceiling tiles. They will not sag from moisture in the middle, giving an eternal crisp, clean finish. Our tiles even come with a 30 year warranty against mold and sagging. After the installation of the new drop ceiling, the basement was much brighter and had a clean appearance. The stylish crown molding around the perimeter of the room gives a beautiful transition to where the wall meets the ceiling.

This was exactly what the homeowner was looking for when finishing their basement and were glad to be able to make this a stylish new living space.

These before and after pictures show an outdated basement that has been transformed into a bright and clean entertainment room.  In the before picture there is an exposed ceiling, cinderblock walls and a concrete floor. The after picture shows new beautiful flooring, bright walls and a finished ceiling. The homeowners will sure enjoy this now finished basement for years to come.

This before and after photoset is of a raised ranch basement. In the before picture you can see the outdated and unappealing wood paneling on the walls. The room also looks dark because the window is not allowing natural light to flow in. In the after picture you’ll see that our crew turned this dark and outdated basement into a bright, naturally-lit functional space.
