Trustworthy Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair Company Serving Westport, CT

A homeowner in Westport, CT, was experiencing persistent moisture problems in their crawl space, which was causing concern about mold growth and energy inefficiency. In search of a reliable and long-lasting solution, they contacted us at Connecticut Basement Systems. After setting an appointment with us, we sent out one of our Sales Consultants, Vin Orsini, to visit the property to thoroughly evaluate the situation and recommend the most effective encapsulation solutions to ensure this problem is eliminated for good. 

Following the assessment, it was time for our installation team to step in. Led by Foreman Antonio and supported by his crew, they began the installation. First, they started by installing our CleanSpace vapor barrier across the entire area, creating a moisture protection layer that prevents water intrusion, mold development, and improves overall air quality. Next, our team installed SilverGlo insulation on the walls, which not only helps to keep the space warm in winter and cool in summer but also makes the area more energy-efficient, ultimately reducing utility costs. To effectively manage any remaining humidity and avoid future mold issues, our Sedona dehumidifier was installed.

Today, the homeowner can enjoy a fully dry, well-insulated, and energy-efficient crawl space. They now have peace of mind knowing that their home is protected from moisture problems, mold, and energy waste, thanks to our encapsulation system. 

In Westport, CT, a homeowner had persistent water seepage in their basement during heavy rainstorms as well as dampness. To find a lasting solution, they reached out to us at Connecticut Basement Systems. After setting an appointment, we sent out our Sales Consultant, Steve Godbout, to evaluate the basement and propose our full perimeter waterproofing solution to resolve the issue and prevent future occurrences.

Shortly after it would be time for one of our Foremen, Garfield, along with his team, to complete the installation. First, they began by laying down our WaterGuard drainage system underneath the basement floor, around the entire perimeter. This system effectively captures seepage from the walls and below the floor and channels it into the drains below, leading directly to the sump pump. Additionally, we installed our CleanSpace on sections of the walls to direct water to the drain flanges while acting as a moisture barrier. The next step involved installing our TripleSafe sump pump, which efficiently pumps out the collected water from the home through a properly installed discharge line. Our TripleSafe features three pumps—a primary, a secondary, and our UltraSump battery backup that can pump out 11,500 gallons on a full charge in case of a power outage during a storm. Finally, our Sedona dehumidifier was installed to provide the ultimate prevention of moisture and mold growth.

This whole basement will now stay dry all of the time. The homeowner is thrilled with the results and can live with great peace of mind knowing they never have to worry again!

A homeowner in Westport, CT expressed concerns that his basement was ill-equipped to protect against basement moisture. With an old sump pump and single dehumidifier, he wanted to upgrade his basement's waterproofing abilities. In need of an expert, the homeowner reached out to the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems for assistance.

Upon calling, the homeowner made contact with Sales Representative Jimmy Stablein. Stablein listened to the homeowner's concerns, scheduling an in-home consultation to further diagnose homeowner's needs. Once the consultation was complete, a formalized proposal was drafted, including specific systems that could help upgrade the homeowner's previous waterproofing system. Some elements of the proposal included:

Installing a WaterGuard French drain system along the perimeter walls helps protect against water accumulating on the outskirts of the basement walls. Water may enter along the walls due to hydrostatic pressure, when water is pushed through narrow gaps in the concrete walls, seeping in along the perimeter. This clog-free system would help protect against these concerns. Additionally, a TripleSafe sump pump was installed, with three levels of protection against basement water. Any excess water collected by the WaterGuard system will be funneled into the sump pump, then expelled to a safe location outside the home via an exterior drainage line. Lastly, a SaniDry dehumidifier was installed to filter the air and remove moisture.

Once approved, Foreman Steve Cogswell and his team arrived on-site to begin work. Removing sections of the concrete slab along the perimeter, Cogswell installed the WaterGuard system. Repairing the area with extra concrete contributes to the non-invasive nature of the system, with it being barely visible aside from the replaced concrete. 

With the systems installed, the homeowner was thrilled with the results and looks forward to using his waterproofed basement. 

A customer in Westport, CT had water seepage in their basement, so they gave us a call at Connecticut Basement Systems to have us solve their problems. One of our Sales Consultants, Alex Lopez, went out to the home to assess the basement water issues and propose a solution that would eliminate their issues, keeping their basement dry. 

One of our Foremen, Antonio Diaz, and his crew installed this job. They installed our WaterGuard drainage system below the floor, around the entire perimeter of the basement, to collect the water coming in from below the floor and the walls. Then they installed our TripleSafe sump pump to take the collected water and pump it out of the home at a safe distance. It uses three pumps; a primary, a secondary, and a battery backup that can pump 11,500 gallons on a full charge.

With these systems, this basement will stay dry, giving the homeowner peace of mind. 

This Westport home had a crawlspace that had a lot of moisture and a musty odor. This caused concern for the homeowner because it was starting to affect the living area of his house. He wanted to transform his crawlspace area to be an energy efficient place. After doing much research, he decided to call Connecticut Basement Systems as they are the experts in crawlspaces and basements.

On the day of the appointment, Sales Representative Rick Raucci arrived to inspect the crawlspace. It had a lot of cracks and openings which is how moisture was able to enter the crawlspace so frequently.  Rick recommended installing a CleanSpace liner to cover the walls and floors of the crawlspace. This durable product will prevent air and moisture from entering the crawlspace, leaving the area drier. To address the musty odor, a SaniDry can be installed to control the humidity of the area. With controlled humidity, the air quality will dramatically increase to be healthier and safer. This is exactly what the homeowner wanted and decided to move forward with the project.

On the day of production, Foreman Garfield Sanderson and his team installed the two products proficiently and effectively. The homeowner was extremely impressed with the transformation of the crawlspace and even more impressed with results of the efficiency of his home!
