Before & After Photos

Antique homes are certainly beautiful but they also require serious upkeep. 

In this eighteenth century house, our customers struggled to properly insulate their basement from Connecticut's cold autumn air. 

That's why Connecticut Basement Systems designed a new, custom basement door to properly seal the homewoner's space. We also sprayed the basement's rim joist with insulation foam in order to protect every square inch of their basement. 

Now, these customers can enjoy their antique space while staying warm, too! 

This Newtown crawl space had a dirt floor and frequent air and moisture. There was no insulation which was causing cold floors on the main floor. The homeowner wanted to find a solution that would make his crawl space more efficient. He decided to do some research on the internet for the best solution and decided to do the project with the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems.

The solution for this crawl space was to install: CleanSpace liner, SilverGlo, rim joist insulation and a SuperSump pump. The CleanSpace liner will prevent any moisture from seeping through the floors. It also makes for a usable area compared to dirt floors. To keep the area insulated, the walls were installed with SilverGlo. To make sure that air does to sneak above the walls, rim joist insulation was installed. Lastly, to ensure that water does not enter, a SuperSump pump was installed. Now, the crawl space runs efficiently and is completely dry and insulated. The homeowner is thrilled with the results.

A homeowner in Newtown, CT had a crack in their foundation that was causing it to tilt inward, which could eventually cause the foundation to fall. This customer made the smart decision to call us at Connecticut Basement Systems to have us fix this issue. One of our Sales Consultants, Tim Kane, went to the home to fully visualize and understand the issues. He then provided a solution for one of our Foremen, Sergio Alves, and Jacob Scott to come out and fix. 

They installed 4 PowerBraces. These will work to stabilize and straighten out the foundation by slowly tightening each brace using a specific tool. Eventually, the braces can become flush with the wall, ensuring the wall will stay in a straight position. Our team will come out to check and tighten the braces as needed. Now the homeowner can relax knowing their home will be stabilized. 

A homeowner in Lakeville, CT expressed interest in encapsulating his crawl space. Previously a cold, damp space, the homeowner wanted to ensure the space was protected against moisture. In need of an expert, he reached out to the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems to schedule a free in-home consultation.

Upon calling, the homeowner made contact with Sales Representative Don Godbout. Once Godbout arrived at the home, he explained the application of products such as our CleanSpace vapor barrier and SilverGlo insulation panels. These products work in tandem to mitigate moisture and adequately insulate the space.

Once approved, Foreman Delfino Mones and his team arrived on-site to begin the installation process. Following a quick install, the homeowner feels much more confident in his crawlspace's appearance and waterproofing abilities!

This old crawlspace was allowing water to seep into the house, and letting conditioned, dry air escape. Our team installed TerraBlock and SilverGlo insulation to make the space energy efficient, our CleanSpace vapor barrier to seal out water, and more! We transformed this dirty space into a clean, dry asset to the home, perfect for storage space.
