Connecticut Basement Systems Before & After Photos

The resident from New Haven, CT, was looking to finish their basement to use their basement as a family room/playroom for children. They chose Connecticut Basement to help them with this process. They developed a plan after speaking with Sales Consultant Cary Benjamin and Project Manager Dan Medina. Our team began by installing our EverLast Walls to prevent moisture damage and will not support mold growth. Additionally, our team upgraded the concrete flooring to our light pecan ThermalDry Elite Plank flooring to give this basement a more vibrant and comfortable look. These homeowners are excited to use their basements to their full potential.

A homeowner in New Haven had a brick foundation that was starting to bow and crumble. Instead of replacing their entire foundation, they called us at Connecticut Basement Systems to have a specialist come out and provide a solution that will solve this problem. Our salesmen informed the homeowner that they would need our Form and Pour system to create a new foundation wall that would stabilize the home. 

Our Foreman, Sergio Alves, and Jacob Scott installed this job. They created a form in front of the problematic foundation wall. Then they poured concrete behind the form to create a new wall that will support the existing foundation. With this, the homeowner will have peace of mind knowing their foundation isn't going to collapse and they didn't have to replace their entire foundation. 

This Wolcott basement was wet, dirty, and flooded frequently due to their insufficient sump pump, as seen in the before photo. The homeowners decided to give Connecticut Basement Systems a call to find a solution for their wet basement. 

With the help of our System Design Specialist, Mick Foster, the homeowners decided to install a TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which is an exclusive product from Connecticut Basement System. The system has three pumps. If there is too much water for the first pump to handle, the second one will kick in. A great benefit of the TripleSafe is if there is a loss of power in the home, a battery pack and the third pump take over, ensuring that your basement will be fully protected.

Before, this Wolcott, CT crawl space was filled with moisture, had a dirt floor and was negatively impacting the rest of the home. Moisture that enters the crawl space can ruin insulation and encourage wood to rot and mold growth. We were able to solve this problem by installing a CleanSpace vapor barrier system to the dirt floors, SilverGlo insulation panels to the walls and rim joist insulation. The CleanSpace vapor barrier will prevent water vapor and humidity from passing through, thus keeping the crawl space dry. The SilverGlo insulation panels combine highly effective graphite infused insulation with a built-in radiant heat barrier surface. This gave the crawl space walls a solid pane of R-11 insulation. Lastly, the rim joist insulation will ensure that unwanted airflow and moisture will not flow through freely. Now, this crawl space is correctly sealed and insulated which will allow the home to run more efficiently! 

This basement in Wolcott, CT was suffering from water seeping into their basement from rain. The homeowners wanted a dry and functional basement, so they decided to call Connecticut Basement Systems. After speaking with Sales Consultant, Cary Benjamin, they were ready to get started. Foreman, Allan Guglielmoni, and his crew began by installing the WaterGuard drainage system which is designed to capture water that enters the basement, and the XL TrenchDrain that helps guide the water to our TripleSafe Sump pump and SuperSump Pump system. Although the pumps are not pictured, they are crucial in effectively draining the water away from the property. Now this basement remains dry all the time and these homeowners don’t have to worry about outside threats.
