This customer was in the process of finishing his basement, but when a recent storm hit, it brought water in to the basement and put a halt on his current project. We came out and assessed the basement and our waterproof solution consisted of an installation of our Waterguard XL, 4 Trench Drains, 2 Well Ducts, partial CleanSpace and our TripleSafe Sump Pump. Now this customer can confidently finish his basement, knowing he is protected from many rain storms to come.
This basement waterproofing job consisted of Waterguard and a SuperSump Pump for the interior portion of the basement and for the exterior we installed a trench drain that lead over to and disharged into the storm drain of the business.
This old sump pump was not up to par, so we installed a TripleSafe Sump System complete with two AC power pumps and a battery back-up pump. This system is capable of pumping over 6000 gallon per hour. The most powerful residential sump system on the market.
When the homeowners in Exton, PA, reached out to Basement Systems USA, they were dealing with a problem common to many older homes: a rusted-out basement window. After years of exposure to the elements, the metal frame had corroded, allowing drafts and moisture to seep into their basement. The homeowners were interested in replacing it with something similar but more durable.
Upon inspection, we recommended our EverLast basement window. Not only is it resistant to rust and moisture, but it also provides better insulation, helping to protect the home from weather changes. Our team carefully removed the old, rusted window and expertly installed the EverLast replacement. The transformation was immediate – the new window brightened up the basement, giving it a fresh look while also improving energy efficiency.
The homeowners were thrilled with the result, noting how much better the basement looked and felt with the upgrade.
This customer had a partially finished basement with an attached garage that would take on water whenever there was a heavy rainfall. After waterproofing multiple properties of hers, she knew Basement Systems USA would get this job done and get it done right. We came out and installed Waterguard along the problematic wall as well as 3 Triple Safe Sump Pumps, SaniDry Dehumidifier, 4 Sunhouse enclosures for the basement windows and Wellducts installed below each window, that would tie into the draining system.
This Before And After will focus on one of the sump pump upgrades to our Triple Safe. As you can see the current sump pump was just an open pit with a pump, an open pit not only collects dirt and debris but will also allow odors and gases to escape from below the slab. Our Triple Safe Sump Pump comes with an airtight lid that will keep out bugs, debris, gases and quiets the noise of the pump. The Triple Safe also comes equipped with 3 pumps. We have the main pump which is a 1/3hp Zoeller pump, the second pump is a 1/2hp Zoeller that will operate when the first pump either fails, or gets overwhelmed and then the third and last pump is the battery back up pump that will turn on if and when power fails.
