A homeowner in New Canaan, CT, had an old, musty crawlspace that needed to be encapsulated. They contacted us at Connecticut Basement Systems to find a permanent solution. One of our Sales Consultants, Brian DiRisi, went to the home to assess the issue and propose an encapsulation solution.
One of our Foremen, Garfield Sanderson, and his crew installed this job. They installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier throughout the crawlspace to protect it from moisture and mold. It will eliminate the musty odors as well. They also installed our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to eliminate moisture and humidity and prevent mold growth as well.
Now this crawlspace is dry and moisture free and the homeowner has great peace of mind!
Here we used a Trench Drain system to direct water out of the garage. BrightWall was also added to keep the walls from molding and brighten up the space. We also used an IceGuard system to prevent water from backing up during cold connecticut winters.
This basement was having water problems. We added a Trenchdrain, DryTrak, and sump pump to remove water from the basement.
As you see from the before picture we opened up the floor around the walls to install TrenchDrain, Waterguard and a TripleSafe Sump pump to remove water from the basement. On the outside of the house we put in Iceguard to prevent water from backing up as a result of frozen pipes.
When we arrived in this basement, it was wet and leaky. However, becasue of the thick, monolithic floors, installing a conventional perimeter drain would be impractical and inefficient. Instead, we used the DryTrak baseboard drain pipe. DryTrak drainage channel has a unique profile designed to capture wall seepage and ground water that leaks into the basement along the floor/wall joint. When combined with a high-performance sump pump system from Basement Systems, DryTrak drainage provides an effective, worry-free solution to basement water problems.
