Before & After Photos

Before, this West Haven basement would get unwanted water seeping through the area. This homeowner was greatly frustrated because he used his basement as a place to relax and enjoy. He wanted to waterproof the area so this would not become a problem anymore. After doing much research, he decided to trust the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems.

To ensure that water would not enter the basement anymore, a WaterGuard system was installed paired with a TripleSafe sump pump system. The WaterGuard is a below the floor system that collects water internally and channels it to the TripleSafe sump pump. From the TripleSafe, the water is discharged away from the home. A SaniDry Sedona was also installed to keep humidity low which will increase the quality of air. There was water damage on the walls that was attracting mold and was not appealing. To solve this problem, we installed a half wall restoration system to the walls, essentially removing the bottom water damaged wall and replacing with our EverLast paneling which will prevent mold. ThermalDry Charcoal Carpet was also installed to give the basement a finished look. The homeowner is now extremely satisfied with his dry and healthier basement! 

Water was seeping through the walls in this Hamden, CT basement. Our CleanSpace vapor barrier stops water and water vapor from penetrating the space. This durable product will ensure a clean, bright, and dry basement for years to come!

This basement used to be characterized by carpet flooring that was worn and outdated. The carpet was also vulnerable to damage from moisture which can lead to mold, odor, and other issues – especially in a basement environment. Looking to make an improvement, the homeowner reached out to the experts at Total Basement Finishing.  

As a solution the homeowner selected ThermalDry Elite flooring in Light Pecan. Both aesthetically attractive and functional, this beautiful flooring will not be damaged by moisture or support mold, mildew, or rot. ThermalDry is also much easier to clean than the original carpet and will keep this home looking great for years to come. The homeowner was pleased with the transformation and could not wait to enjoy his improved basement with his family and friends.

A homeowner in Hamden had an unfinished basement they wanted to turn into a liveable/usable space. They wanted to turn it into a rec room potentially. They called our Total Basement Finishing team of Connecticut Basement Systems to have us make this possible. After scheduling a free estimate, one of our Sales Consultants, Cary Benjamin went out to the home to meet with the customer to develop a plan for how they wanted to transform their basement. 

Once a plan and proposal were made, it would soon be time for the installation process to begin. One of our Foremen, Erik Dobrzycki, worked on this finishing project. He installed framing and our EverLast wall system. He installed our Elite Plank flooring in Light Pecan. He also installed new doors and one of our EverLast basement windows. He installed new pine stairs and installed a drop ceiling. One of our electricians, Sean Duffy, installed all things electrical. Once it was completed it it looked beautiful! Then the homeowner was able to decorate it and make it their own livable space and they were thrilled with the results. 

A homeowner in Hamden, CT was experiencing common issues pertaining to basement moisture. With moisture undesirably puddling around the perimeter of the basement, leaving stains across the finished drywall, the homeowner knew he had to act.

Reaching out to Connecticut Basement Systems was the first step to upgrading his space into a desirable, dry space for his family. Upon making contact with Sales Consultant Steve Machnicz, the homeowner expressed his dreams for a dry, finished basement free from common moisture issues with a finished, polished look. By installing a SaniDry Dehumidifier, the air is filtered and free from moisture. With a WaterGuard French drain and TripleSafe sump pump installed along the perimeter prior to finishing the basement, the basement's waterproofing abilities improved drastically. 

To polish off the basement and provide a finished look, Machnicz suggested EverLast wall panels and ThermalDry floor tiles. Once the proposal was signed off, Foreman Jahroume Gardener and his team began work.

Upon completion, the homeowner was thrilled with the transformation! Not only is his basement moisture-free, but also has a clean, stunning appearance that his family can cherish for years to come.
