A homeowner in Litchfield was getting water seepage in their basement in multiple areas, so they called us to find a permanent solution. One of our Sales Consultants, Steve Machnicz, went to the home to assess the issues and propose an estimate for work we would do.
One of our Foremen, Garfield Sanderson, and his crew installed this job. They installed our WaterGuard perimeter drain system along with multiple of our SuperSump Plus sump pumps. These systems will work together to collect water coming into the basement and pump it out of the home at a safe distance. Now this basement will stay dry and give the homeowner peace of mind!
In this basement we installed a waterguard system, which removes water from the basement and drains it into a sumppump.
Before we arrived, this basement was always damp. We installed a SuperSump sump pump system. The SuperSump includes a powerful Zoeller ⅓ horsepower cast-iron sump pump, capable of pumping 2,500 gallons of water per hour out of the basement. Once the cement finishes drying, the owners of this home wil have a waterproofed basement for years to come!
Before, this Goshen basement had a crack in its basement wall that was allowing air and water to leak through. Quick fixes hardly work because poor adhesion or a slight movement along the crack can break the seal. This was when the homeowner decided to call the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems to resolve the problem correctly.
The solution for this wall crack was to install our FlexiSpan system. This 3 part system seals the crack while ensuring that no shifting will occur. The water is actually guided to the system below where it is channeled to the sump pump. The wet cement in the after photo is where the port is located. This system solved the leaking wall crack and the homeowner was happy to have a permanent solution to his problem!
Before our Total Basement Finishing team came in, this basement was mainly used as a storage area, as seen in the first picture. The homeowners, however, wanted to make use of this space as a home gym and media center. Ron Marra, a basement expert, came in and helped the family decide what to do.
After CT Basement Systems waterproofed the basement, Eric Dobrzycki worked on transforming the basement into a beautiful living space. He installed our drop ceiling tiles, which are specifically made for basement environments and have a 30 year warranty against mold and sagging. The new basement also has EverLast wall panels, which are engineered to never get moldy or rot, unlike the traditional drywall.
The owners of this home were very happy with their new basement living space, which will last for years to come.
