Before & After

A homeowner in Washington Depot, CT was dealing with water in their crawlspace and needed a proper solution. They called us at Connecticut Basement Systems to have us make their space completely dry! After scheduling an appointment with us, one of our Sales Consultants, Mick Foster, visited the home to assess the issues and propose a solution specific to their crawlspace.
Then the next step would be for one of our Foremen, Antonio Diaz, and his team to work on this project. They installed a CleanSpace vapor barrier around the whole crawlspace. They installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to prevent moisture and mold growth. They also installed a SuperSump Plus to collect any water coming in and pump it out of the home at a safe distance. Now this crawlspace will stay dry and this homeowner will no longer have to worry about getting water damage.
To fix the water problem in this basement we added a Waterguard and Sump Pump system in to remove the water. After waterproofing, a Thermadry floor was installed to finish it off and give the homeowners a dry, useable space.
This crawlspace used to be a damp, humid space. By installing the CleanSpace vapor barrier around the perimeter of the crawlspace, we were able to seal off the crawlspace from the outside. And with its mold-resistant additive "UltraFresh", CleanSpace will never support mildew or mold growth on its surface. With this durable liner, we converted this crawl space into a usable storage area!
When we arrived in this home, the walls were leaking water. However, due to the thick monolithic floors, installing a below-floor perimeter drain would have been very difficult. Instead, we installed the DryTrak baseboard drain pipe, after drilling weep holes to alleviate water pressure. The DryTrak captures all the water that would have seeped into the home, ensuring a dry basement!
When we arrived at this Newtown basement, it was damp and moldy. Every time it rained, water would seep into the room. We first waterproofed the space, then used our finishing products to transform it into a useable living space. We installed BrightWall wall paneling and ThermalDry flooring. In addition to providing the room with a clean, finished look, BrightWall panels keep humidity and water vapor from passing into the room. The ThermalDry tiles keep the basement floor 8 to 10 degrees warmer than the concrete beneath! The owners of this Newtown home now enjoy a bright, dry, finished basement living space!
