A garage floor was sinking and cracked in New Baden, IL, and needed to be addressed. To solve the unleveled concrete issue, PolyLevel™ was used. This system works by injecting polyurethane foam underneath the concrete, where it will expand and raise the concrete to level it out. Next, NexusPro™ was used to fill in the cracks. This flexible sealant will stand the test of time and against any harsh weather. With these systems in place, the homeowner can rest assured that their garage floor is in great shape!
Merri and Rich M. of Hamel, Illinois were distraught by their wet, moldy basement. The water risked damaging their belongings and caused mold. After inspecting the basement, a system design specialist designed a solution to keep the basement dry.
As part of the waterproofing system, Foreman Melvin F. installed the TripleSafe sump pump system. Triple Safe is equipped with a main pump, backup pump, and battery-powered pump, so Merri and Rich's basement will stay dry all the time.
A sump pump was no longer in working order in Hamel, IL, causing concern for the homeowners. To solve this issue, the Triple Safe Sump Pump System was installed. This system assures protection from common problems with an ordinary pump. It can handle a heavy flow of water, thanks to a secondary pump included inside that will help eliminate the water if the first pump is unable to keep up with the amount of water that is entering it. It also features a removable airtight lid which reduces noise, prevents objects from falling in, and keeps moisture, insects, and odor from coming out of the sump. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water. This basement will remain dry and restore peace of mind for years to come!
Water was coming down a basement wall in Hamel, IL, as well as entering through the window. Also, a large crack was forming on the wall and causing more problems. To solve these issues, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was first installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls. The white color will also brighten the basement, reflecting the light. Any wall leaks will also be drained down to the WaterGuard System, which was installed next. This perimeter drainage system is installed adjacent to the home and provides a channel that connects to the sump pump. Its design will drain any wall seepage without allowing dirt and debris from the floor to enter and clog the pipes.
Additionally, a WellDuct Window Well Drain was installed. This channel is placed on the inside of the basement below the window that will carry water from a leaking window to the WaterGuard System. Lastly, the PowerBrace System was installed. This system is designed to stabilize a home’s foundation permanently. It will support the basement walls and straighten them over time. It will distribute the load evenly and eliminate the worry of damage caused by commonly seen wood floor joists. This system can be tightened over time and doesn't require any invasive drilling or digging. PowerBrace’s brackets are engineered to provide strong support to the joints and protect the floor system's durability. Thanks to these systems, this basement will now remain dry and stable all the time!
