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.
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!
This basement was wet and humid when our team arrived. In order to stop moisture from seeping into the room through the walls, we installed our BrightWall wall panels. BrightWall acts as a vapor barrier, keeping humidity out. Alongside the ThermalDry floor tiles, which keep the floor 8-10 degrees warmer than the concrete underneath, we transformed this basement into a dry, bright, useable space!
The walls in this basement used to allow water vapor through, causing the space to become humid and moldy. We covered them with BrightWall panels, which in addition to giving the room a clean, bright look, act as a vapor barrier and prevent all water from passing through. Since the panels are mechanically gastened, they will never peel, chip or flake. The homeowners can rest easy knowing that their basement will be mold-free for years to come!
