This homeowner in Fort Myer, VA wanted the humidity issue in their basement and crawl space to be fixed before finishing it. Our team was able to prescribe a solution to achieve humidity control, efficiency, and overall cleanliness of the spaces.
This crawl space in Alexandria VA had a sump pump that wasn't working the way the homeowner needed it to. The crawl space would gather water in several spaces when it rained and it was not all being captured by the sump pump. Our production team installed sub floor water proofing to help collect and send all of the unwanted water to the newly installed double sump pump to discharge it out of the home. The rest of the crawl space surface was covered with a moisture barrier to keep the air quality of the home from having too much humidity.
Although every basement waterproofing jobs starts inside, the projects can often extend outside of the home. This drainage pipe was run as far away from the foundation of the home as possible. We do whatever we can to try and return a home or the yard it sits on, back to normal once we complete a project.

Our goal with any home project is to leave a home in better condition than it was in before we did work. That includes the outside. We often have to dig into a yard to lay a discharge line for sump pumps for basement or crawl space waterproofing jobs like this one.
