Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Meriden, CT had a foundation that was cracked and settling, making the basement of the home very uneven. They called our Foundation Supportworks team at Connecticut Basement Systems to find a way to fix their big problems. After scheduling an appointment, one of our Sales Consultants, Gus Stozinic, drove to the home to visualize and understand the issues. He knew this would be a job for our Foreman Sergio Alves and Jacob Scott.

Eventually, it would be time to start the work. In order to install the push piers, a trench needed to be dug in the back of the house alongside the foundation. Once that was done, it would be time to begin push pier installation. These go below the footing of the foundation and are then steel pier sections that are hydraulically driven into the ground until they reach stable soil. Then the team would raise the foundation to ensure the house is no longer sagging and the cracks come together, but this is done slowly and carefully. Once the homeowner and Sergio were satisfied with the stabilization, the cracks were sealed on the outside and finally, it was time to backfill with soil. On the inside, the cracks were closed up, but sealed and waterproofed, and then CarbonArmor strips to strengthen and help stabilize the wall. Overall, this was a very large project, but the homeowner was very happy with the results, seeing her foundation was in great shape!

A homeowner in Meriden, CT expressed concerns that her old sump pump system would be ineffective in mitigating unwanted basement moisture. In search of an expert, she decided to reach out to Connecticut Basement Systems for a free in-home consultation.

Upon calling, the homeowner made contact with Sales Representative Chuck Stofko. Once Stofko arrived at the home, he began writing detailed notes, including a sketch of the basement and various measurements. Following the completion of his visit, he provided a finalized proposal to the homeowner.

With the proposal accepted, Foreman Allan Guglielmoni and his team arrived on-site to begin the installation process. Following Stofko's proposal, Guglielmoni and his team installed our TripleSafe sump pump system with three levels of protection against basement moisture. Included with the TripleSafe system is a battery backup, which offers protection in the event of a power outage. 

Confident in her basement's ability to mitigate moisture with an upgrade from her previous sump pump system, the homeowner was thrilled with the results!

A customer in Northford, CT reached out to us at Connecticut Basement Systems because they had water seepage in their basement and needed a permanent solution. 

One of our Sales Consultants, Josh Kroop, went to the home to evaluate the issues and propose a full perimeter waterproofing system. 

Our Foreman, Moises Chantes, and his crew installed this job. In this before and after you see our WaterGuard drainage system that is below the floor (under the new cement) that will collect water and direct it into our sump pump. The SuperSump Plus that we installed will pump out all of that collected water from the home at a safe distance. Not pictured is another sump pump with our battery backup system as well as our Sedona dehumidifier. This was a large basement, so multiple of our products were needed to ensure this entire basement stayed dry all the time! 

Here we installed a trench drain, waterguard and sump pump to quicking remove any water from the basement. We also installed our BrightWall moisture barrier to make those concete walls more inviting and waterproofed.

A homeowner in Farmington, CT was getting water in their basement from multiple heavy storms. They called us at Connecticut Basement Systems to have us waterproof their basement. One of our Sales Consultants, Doug Wheeler, met with the customer in their home to assess the issues and provide a proper solution for the basement. 

Eventually, it would be time for the installation, which would be done by one of our Foremen, Garfield Sanderson, and his crew. They installed one of our TripleSafe sump pumps. This would take any collected water from our WaterGuard drain system and pump it out of the home at a safe distance. The TripleSafe uses three pumps, a primary, a secondary, and a battery backup that will pump out over 11,000 gallons of water on a full charge. With this sump pump and our WaterGuard drains, this basement will stay dry all the time.
