Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Danbury, CT was getting water seeping into their basement every time it rained. After contacting us at Connecticut Basement Systems, we set an appointment for one of our Sales Consultants, Jimmy Stablein, to go to the home to assess the issues and propose a solution. 

Soon after it would be time for one of our Foremen, Cisco Berrios, and his crew to install the job. They installed our WaterGuard drainage system below the floor, around the entire perimeter of the basement to collect the water coming in from the walls/floors. They installed our TripleSafe sump pump to take that collected water and pump it out of the home at a safe distance. Lastly, they installed our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to eliminate moisture and prevent mold growth. Now this basement will stay dry all the time! 

This Norwalk home had continuous water problems in their basement. The only line of defense the home had was an old sump pump in a hole. The homeowners decided to call the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems and our Certified Basement Water proofer Matt diagnosed and fixed the issue. We came in and installed our Waterguard drain system. The Waterguard is put in the ground but above the footing or “mud zone” to prevent any clogs.

The water flowing through the drain system makes a trip through our premier sump pump system the TripleSafe. The TripleSafe sump pump has a total of three pumps for that added security. The first pump which sits the lowest starts pumping first. The second pump will start running if the first pump is unable to handle the amount of water coming in. The third and final pump will start running if the power goes out or is tripped, because it is backed up by a battery.

As a finishing touch we installed our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier. The vapor barrier is a 100% waterproof plastic material that's perfect for unfinished basement walls. With a 25-year warranty [PDF] for wear and tear, it's durable, washable, and has anti-microbial protection called UltraFresh built right in! The homeowners can sit back and know that their basement won’t have anymore moisture or water issues.

A homeowner in Norwalk, CT was getting water in their basement and called us at Connecticut Basement Systems to have us find a solution for their problems. After scheduling an appointment, one of our Sales Consultants, Chuck Stofko, went out to the home to assess the issues and propose a way to solve them. 

The next step in the process would be for one of our Foremen, Krzysztof Wilk, and his team to work on the installation of this job. They installed our DryTrak drain system along the bottom of the floor. This specific drain system is used for monolithic foundations. This will collect water coming in from the walls or floors and drain it into the sump pump. The pump they installed was a TripleSafe. This will pump out any water that comes into the basement at a safe distance away from the home. This is done through a proper discharge line that the team also installed. Now this basement will stay dry with our systems working together! 

A homeowner in Norwalk, CT was experiencing issues pertaining to moisture in his basement. With an old, outdated sump pump for such a vast space, the homeowner knew he had to act. To combat these issues, he reached out to the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems for assistance.

Upon calling, the homeowner made contact with Sales Representative Tony Van Deusen. Van Deusen was able to address the homeowner's concerns, scheduling a free in-home consultation and drafting a proposal.

Once the proposal was accepted by the homeowner, Foreman Moises Chantes and his team got to work. By installing a new TripleSafe sump pump with three layers of protection against basement flooding, the homeowner would surely be protected against further basement moisture. Additionally, a WaterGuard French drain was installed along the perimeter to help collect water traveling down the walls and around the floor. This water would then be funneled into the TripleSafe pump and expelled outside of the home. Lastly, a white CleanSpace vapor barrier was installed along the walls.

Once installed, the homeowner was thrilled with the results, and looks forward to utilizing their dry basement!

In this basement we installed our Waterguard drainage system. We also upgraded the existing TrenchDrain in addition to installing a SuperSump pump. On the outside of the house we put in an Iceguard to prevent water back up during winter months from frozen pipes.
