This basement had several problems. The foundation wall was starting to bow inward, so we installed CarbonArmor Straps to reinforce the wall and prevent it from continuing to bow. We also installed a TripleSafe Sump Pump along with the WaterGuard Drainage System to take care of the water that was entering the basement. To finish the job, we installed the CleanSpace vapor barrier on the walls. CleanSpace works in conjunction with WaterGuard and keeps water from entering the basement by catching any moisture that may come through the walls and directing it into the WaterGuard system where it will either evaporate or drain away into the sump.
CleanSpace has the added bonus of brightening up your basement. It’s a fast and economical way to cover ugly basement walls. CleanSpace Wall is washable, durable and can conform to bumpy walls and it is installed using permanent drilled-in fasteners, so it stays put for a neat, clean appearance.
This customer had a monolithic foundation which prevented us from cutting the floor near the foundation wall to install a traditional sub-floor waterproofing system. So we installed a DryTrak cove channel system with a TripleSafe Sump System. We also installed a sub-floor drainage system towards the middle of the floor to deal with hydrostatic pressure.
This customer had a humid, dingy, dirty crawlspace. We installed our SaniDry - Upright XP, drainage matting and our CleanSpace vapor barrier. Now this once dirty space can be used as storage.
The customer wanted to finish the basement, but this basement needed some work done first. First, we installed the WaterGuard waterproofing system. Then we added CarbonArmor to repair the bowing foundation wall. We also had to add an egress to meet code. The we finished the basement with our TBF finishing system, which comes with a 50-year guarantee against water or mold damage. We finished the job with some nice barn doors and our grey Thermal Plank flooring.
This customer was in need of a sump pump upgrade so we delivered - in the form of a SuperSump Plus pump system with a cast iron pump, capable of pumping up to 2,300 gallons per hour, a heavy-duty liner with an airtight lid that keeps moisture and critters from coming up into the basement, and a WaterWatch Alarm system which alerts you if the water in your sump gets higher than the point where the pump should turn on, giving you time to address the problem before damage occurs.
