Before, this Branford, CT crawl space was filthy, foul-smelling and had a dirt floor. This combination can cause a risky environment on the main level of the home. The moisture that was flowing from the crawl space to the upper levels of the home was unhealthy. The homeowner knew that this was concerning and decided to reach out to the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems.
The solution for this crawl space was to install CleanSpace to the floors. This would prevent any water seepage or moisture flowing to the crawl space and up to the main floor of the home. (stack effect) CleanSpace will protect against mold and rot. A dry crawl space will also be inhospitable to termites, cockroaches and other pests. Instantly, the efficiency of the home improved and the homeowner was very pleased!
A homeowner in Branford, CT, faced water intrusion in their basement due to heavy rains. They contacted us at Connecticut Basement Systems for a lasting waterproofing solution. One of our Sales Consultant, Rick Raucci, visited the home to assess the situation and propose a solution utilizing our products and systems.
One of our Foreman, Marcio Bahiense, and his team handled the installation. They put in our WaterGuard drainage system below the floor to capture water entering from the floors and walls. Next, they installed our TripleSafe sump pump to safely discharge the collected water from the home. Additionally, our CleanSpace vapor barrier was applied to the walls to guard against moisture and direct water into the drainage system. Now, the basement is dry, giving the homeowner peace of mind!
A homeowner in Wallingford, CT had water and moisture issues in their basement so they called us at Connecticut Basement Systems to get a solution. One of our Salesmen, Matt Kraus, went to the home to assess the issues and propose a solution with our sump pump system.
One of our Foremen, Clive Burrell, and his team installed this job. They installed our SuperSump Plus sump pump to collect water and pump it out of the home at a safe distance.

This Wallingford basement had a crack in its wall that was seeping water. The homeowner was concerned that this crack was just going to get worse and wanted to find a solution. She decided to call Connecticut Basement Systems to help find a solution since they are the experts in all things basementy!
The solution for this basement crack was to install FleixSpan. FlexiSpan will permanently stop water leakage and will not reopen like mortar-based repairs. A sealant is placed over the full length of the crack. Once applied, a strip of flexible and porous foam is installed over the crack. Lastly, a foam-lined channel is installed to direct water leakage to the WaterGuard System. Unlike sealant or mortar-based crack repair, the FlexiSpan System is not affected by hydrostatic pressure or slight movement in the basement! This is exactly what the homeowner wanted and was thrilled with the product and result!
This Wallingford basement had a water issue that was causing a nuisance for the homeowner. Water would especially build up and flood around the doorways of the basement. Frustrated, the homeowner decided to call Connecticut Basement Systems to help find her a solution.
The solution for this basement was to install a WaterGuard System. This system is installed below the floor and it channels water that otherwise would enter the basement, and directs it to the sump pump, where it is discharged away from the basement. Around more problematic areas such as doorways, a TrenchDrain is installed. A TrenchDrain, as seen in the before and after photo, effectively captures surface water along openings and prevents flooding. This product is made from rugged reinforced plastic that will not crack or dent. The homeowner was thrilled with her waterproofed basement and was excited that the products truly worked in her basement!
