Before, this Cheshire basement had constant water problems that would frustrate the homeowner every time she entered the area. The main problem was an insufficient sump pump that was not discharging the water properly. This would result in a wet basement. She wanted a solution for a dry basement and reached out to the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems.

The solution for this Cheshire basement was to install a WaterGuard system paired with a TripleSafe sump pump. The WaterGuard is a below the floor system that collects water internally before it enters the basement. Once the water is collected, it is channeled to the TripleSafe sump pump where it is discharged away from the home. The great benefit of the TripleSafe is that it has a three-pump system that adjusts automatically to meet pumping requirements. The power of these two products create a dry basement which is exactly what the homeowner had wanted!

Job Stories From Cheshire, CT
Rockwell Window Installation - Cheshire, CT

A homeowner in Cheshire, CT expressed interest in adding an egress window to his basement. Researching his options, he came across Connecticut Basement Systems, reputable experts servicing New Haven County. Shortly after, he made the call and established contact with Sales Representative Jason Waldek.

Upon calling, the homeowner scheduled a free in-home consultation with Waldek. On the day of the consultation, Waldek arrived, further discussing the Rockwell window well. By removing a section of the concrete, an egress window could be installed, with surrounding soil being removed to make way for the window well itself. 

With Waldek's proposal approved by the homeowner, Foreman Sergio Alves, Jacob Scott, and supporting crew arrived on-site to begin the installation process. After a brief two-day job, the homeowner's new egress window and Rockwell window well were installed. The homeowner was thrilled with the results!

Basement Waterproofing in Cheshire, CT

A homeowner in Cheshire, CT was experiencing a plethora of issues with their basement: signs of water and moisture buildup, poor insulation, and potential damage to their personal belongings. Alongside the perimeter walls, a layer of sodium sulfate efflorescence (a white powder-like stain due to the evaporation of salt in concrete walls) indicated water buildup. In an effort to protect the basement from further water damage, the homeowner called the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems for advice on All Things Basementy!

Upon calling, the homeowner made contact with Sales Consultant Tim Kane. Kane listened thoroughly to the homeowner's concerns, applying expertise from previous situations to better understand how to address homeowner's issues. Scheduling a visit to the home allowed Kane to diagnose the situation, and furthermore, put together a proposal for the homeowner.

The proposal included installation of WaterGuard around the perimeter to tie into the pre-existing SuperSump sump pump, and the addition of EverLast panels for insulation. This interdependent system works together to ensure water and moisture stays out of the basement, keeping the basement dry and temperate per the homeowner's desires!

Once the proposal was accepted by the homeowner, the plans were passed on to foreman Moises Chantes and his crew. Quickly beginning work upon arrival on site, the project was completed within a couple days and the homeowner was thrilled with the results!

Full Perimeter Waterproofing in Cheshire, CT

Mr. K of Cheshire, CT was experiencing water seepage into his basement and below-grade garage. He no longer wanted to be worried about this every time it rains, so he reached out to us at Connecticut Basement Systems to resolve this problem for good! After setting an appointment with us, we sent out one of our specialists, Jared Sgroi. He went to the home to evaluate the water issue and propose a solution to our products and systems. He informed them that they needed a full perimeter system to ensure this basement would stay dry! 

After the estimate and job were approved, it would be time for installation. This would be done by our Foreman, Cisco Berrios, and his crew. First, they installed our WaterGuard drainage system below the floor, around the entire perimeter. This is done by jackhammering into the floor, laying down the drains, and then covering them with new concrete. These drains collect water from below the floors and from the walls. Next, they installed our TripleSafe sump pump in the lowest point of the basement. This will pump out the collected water, from the drains, out of the home at a safe distance. It uses 3 pumps; a primary, a secondary, and our UltraSump battery backup pump. The UltraSump can pump out 11,500 gallons of water on a full charge, so in case of any power outages, the sump pump will always be active. The crew also installed our TrenchDrain at the garage entrance so that it can capture water from above the floor and go directly into the WaterGuard below. 

With all of our systems installed throughout this basement/garage space, it will now stray dry moving forward! Mr. K has peace of mind knowing he no longer has to worry about water coming into his home! 

Waterproofing a Basement in Cheshire, CT

A homeowner in Cheshire was getting water in their basement and needed a proper waterproofing system so they wouldn't have to worry about water again. One of our Sales Consultants, Rick Raucci, went out to the home to assess the issues and provide a solution that our team would install in their home. He informed the homeowner that they would need our waterproofing systems which consist of drains and a sump pump to ensure their basement will stay dry. 

One of our Foremen, Al Guglielmoni, and his crew were assigned to install this job. They installed our WaterGuard perimeter drain system below the floors to collect any water coming in from the walls or floors. This gets installed by jackhammering the floor, installing the drains, and then covering it back up with new concrete. Then they installed our SuperSump Plus sump pump that would take the collected water and pump it out of the home at a safe distance. The crew installs proper discharge lines to ensure the water has no way of entering back into the basement. With these systems, this basement will now be dry and the homeowner will no longer need to worry about water in the basement!

Along with that, our team installed Elite Plank flooring in gray and All Oak dark brown stairs, keeping wood flooring throughout the whole space. Our TBF doors were installed, as well as our EverLast Window Inserts. The staircase was enclosed, the support beams were concealed, and the ceilings were painted black to complete the installation.

WaterGuard System in Cheshire, CT

This Cheshire home had a water problem in the basement that became a nuisance for the homeowner. Having previous work done in their home by Connecticut Basement Systems, they knew just who to call to solve their wet basement and quickly scheduled an appointment with us.

On the day of the appointment, Sales Representative Jorge Rodriguez arrived at the home to assess the situation. He concluded that the basement would benefit from a WaterGuard System. This system would waterproof the basement, leaving it dry through any storm! This is exactly what the homeowners needed and went through with the project. 

On the day of production, Foreman Krzys Wilk and his team installed the WaterGuard System efficiently and professionally. The WaterGuard is installed below the ground around the perimeter of the basement where it will collect the water before it even reaches the basement. The water is then channeled to the sump pump where it exits through a discharge line, keeping the basement dry. Once the project was completed, the basement was transformed into a dry and cleaner area. The homeowners now have peace of mind with a dry a basement.
