Connecticut Basement Systems Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Pound Ridge, NY was getting water in their basement that was causing damage and leaving a muddy mess. They called us at Connecticut Basement Systems and set an appointment with one of our Sales Consultants, Rick Raucci. Rick went out to the home to assess the issues and provide them with a proper solution for their basement needs. 
Once everything was approved, it would soon be time for one of our Foremen, Garfield Sanderson, and his crew to install the job. They installed WaterGuard drains below the floor (under the new concrete) so that any water coming in from the walls or floor around the entire perimeter of the basement, will get collected and led into the sump pump. Then they installed one of our TripleSafe sump pumps, which would take that collected water and pump it out of the home at a safe distance. This pump works with 3 different pumps and is our most reliable sump pump system. The team even installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier along the walls of the basement to protect from moisture and ensure any water coming from the walls gets directed into the drainage system. Now this basement will stay dry permanently and the homeowner never needs to worry about water in their basement again. 

This is a great example of an upgraded sump pump system! With an insufficient sump pump, water is more than likely to enter the basement and leave its presence with a musty odor and an unwelcoming environment. Wanting a solution for an upgraded sump pump system, the homeowner decided to call the experts at CT Basement Systems! 

The solution for this basement was to install a SuperSump Pump system. This system has a Zoeller 1/3 horsepower sump pump that is able to pump out 3,900 gallons per hour! This is exactly what the homeowner needed and he now enjoys a dry basement even with the heavy rains!

Before, this basement had water seeping through the walls and from the window. You can see the discoloration on the walls where the water was an issue. The homeowner wanted a solution and decided to call the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems. 

The solution for this basement was to install a WaterGuard system along with a CleanSpace liner. The WaterGuard system will collect water internally and channel it to the sump pump system. The CleanSpace liner was installed on the walls to prevent air and moisture from leaking through the walls. Not only is this liner practical, but it gives a clean, fresh look to the area. This is exactly what the homeowner wanted and was pleased with the results.

Before, this Stamford basement would frequently experience water seeping from the walls and floors. This was concerning for the homeowner and he wanted to find a permanent solution. He decided to contact the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems to come up with a resolution. 

The solution for this basement was to install a WaterGuard system. This below the ground system will internally collect the water and channel it to the sump pump where it will be discharged properly away from the home. This system is installed by excavating the perimeter of the wall (and around other objects such as in the before and after photo) and the product is placed, backfilled with gravel and then paved over with cement. Now, the water that would normally make the basement wet is channeled properly to the sump pump. The homeowner is very satisfied with the project! 

To be stable, strong and level, the floor above a crawl space requires solid mid-span support that's usually provided by a post-and-beam assembly. But beams are often undersized, and many contractors use wooden posts that can rot, shift and settle. When this happens, floor joists sag and other structural problems occur. The SmartJack system is a foundation repair product that provides a permanent solution to these problems.
