Walter had experienced water intrusion in his basement on multiple occasions, which hindered his ability to fully enjoy the space. He desired to finish their basement, install attractive floor finishes, and transform it into a usable area within his home. Additionally, he expressed concerns about the basement's dim and gloomy atmosphere.
Furthermore, Walter was particularly worried about the potential presence of mold and musty smells, as he had lost his sense of smell and wanted to avoid dealing with such issues. After enduring years with an unfinished basement, he finally decided to invest in flooring and other enhancements. However, he wanted assurance that these improvements would not be compromised by future water problems.
To address these concerns, we installed full-height CleanSpace, a highly effective vapor barrier system that safeguards against mold, mildew, and unpleasant odors. Additionally, we installed a Triple Safe sump pump, providing the customer with added peace of mind and ample backup protection in the event of any future water infiltration.
By implementing these measures, we ensured that Walter's basement would be protected from potential water issues, allowing him to confidently proceed with their plans to finish the space and create a more inviting and enjoyable area within his home.
This customer was experiencing cold floors caused by poor insolation of their crawl space. We installed full encapsulation with insulation to walls and rim joists of the crawlspace.
Homeowner Louis R. in Norwalk, IA was looking to check off some home improvement projects starting with ridding the crawlspace of dampness and humidity that was affecting the rest of his home.
System Design Specialist James visited the home to provide a free, same-day estimate. We started by installing Cleanspace with a drainage mat to provide a protective barrier from the ground to the home. Next, we blocked off exterior vents, and installed a SmartDrain with our Sedona dehumidifier. With our system, we were able to control the moisture in the crawlspace which benefited the rest of the home.
This homeowner's basement had many signs of water damage on all walls, including mold growth. The main goal was to increase the health and safety conditions within the home. To address these concerns, we implemented a solution by adding CleanSpace. CleanSpace is a vapor barrier that is attached to the walls. This product created a healthier and safer environment and also increased the value of the home.
Dave noticed he had water in his crawl space and wanted to have his crawl space become a storage space for his wife to use. He didn't know who to call but then saw a commercial on the television showing him what we can do. He called and had one of our System Designers come out to his house to give him a free quote. The System Designer told Dave that we would have to encapsulate his crawl space which means we would put vent covers which would stop the cold from coming in. Second we would remove all the standing water that would be left in the crawl space. Then, we would repair the structure and finally encapsulate the crawl space. Dave was very happy with the work that was done and his wife was happy that she got to put her things in the area.
