The homeowners were having an issue with a crumbling foundation and dampness due to a dirt crawlspace. We repaired the foundation, added an entry door to the crawlspace and installed Cleanspace and Silverglo.
We arrived to 5" of water on the floor but when we left it was completely dry and with our work it will remain dry! We installed a SuperSump and 60' of FlowGuard. The combination of these two products ensures that any water that tries to get into the basement will be drained and pumped outside. To make sure the moisture in the air was under control as well, we also installed a SaniDry XP in an adjacent room.
After:
As you could see in the before pictures, we manipulated the wall as far back as we could (approximately 3 1/2"). Because of how violent a break this wall experienced, we had to excavate the foundation. We then opened the slab and installed a footing with rebar extending up the full height of the new wall. These areas were filled solid with concrete.
We also sprayed a waterproof membrane with a drainage matting and footing drain to reduce static pressure on the foundation before backfill.
Installing a new wall here was the best approach for this particular project. Needless to say, our homeowner is now comfortable utilizing this valuable area of the property.
Before:
We were called in to inspect a failing foundation.......
These pictures are quite a statement. This wall was an extreme example!
This homeowner asked us to remove and patch over an old, leaky window in the basement. Here are some before and after pictures.
Here is a before and after of a WaterGuard system we did in Blairstown NJ. In the before picture if you look at the floor joint you can see dampness and a water stain, after we get done the homeowner won't have to worry about that anymore!
