Connecticut Basement Systems Before & After Photos

When we arrived at this home, the crawlspace was wet and debris-filled. It was letting unconditioned air into the house, increasing energy costs for the homeowners. By encapsulating the space with the CleanSpace vapor barrier, we were able to seal the crawlspace off from the outside and prevent mold-causing humidity from entering the home. The owners of this house now have a clean, dry, energy-efficient crawlspace environment!

The moisture in this Norwalk, CT crawlspace caused the fiberglass insulation to grow heavy and fall, where it became a perfect place for mold to grow. Fiberglass insulation is not the best choice for a space where moisture is a problem. Our SilverGlo insulation is different; it creates a vapor barrier on the walls that keeps moisture from making its way inside. SilverGlo is the ideal crawlspace insulation!

This old crawlspace used to have a moisture problem. Water and water vapor would seep into the home, causing the fiberglass insulation to grow heavy and fall. We put in new insulation to replace it. However, SilverGlo wall insulation and TerraBlock floor insulation won't absorb moisture, support mold or deteriorate over time, making them perfect for this crawlspace! They work alongside the CleanSpace vapor barrier to create a dry crawlspace environment that will last for years to come!

In this Norwalk home the homeowners had a continuing moisture issue in their crawlspace. The crawlspace was dirty and very humid when they would go down there. The homeowners called the experts at CT Basement Systems and we fixed the issue on the first visit. We installed our vapor barrier which not only keeps the moisture from coming through the walls and floor but it also keeps the crawl space clean. The homeowners also had us install our crawl space insulation which is a great way to seal off your walls, while also saving money on your energy bills!

SilverGlo™ combines highly effective graphite-impregnated insulation with a built-in radiant heat barrier surface. This gives your crawl space walls an unbroken plane of R-11 insulation. 

The R. Family had continuous water coming in through the walls in their basement. The water would seep in through the walls and rest on the ground in a pool of water. The homeowners wanted a fix to the water issue since from the picture you can see the mold on the walls. The homeowners contacted the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems and our basement waterproofing expert Len Fletcher made sure no more water would come in. We installed our WaterGuard French drain system to guide the water that comes in out of the basement. The WaterGuard is an exceptional product because it sits under the ground but above the foundation footing to prevent any clogging from happening. The water will be guided into our TripleSafe Sump Pump system. The sump pump has three pumps to ensure ALL the water is pumped out. The first pump which sits the lowest is the first to turn on, but if it can’t handle the amount of water coming in then the second pumps turns on to assist the first. The third pump only turns on if the power goes out but it has the capability to pump as much as half of a swimming pool. To encapsulate the walls from any moisture or any more mold being created we installed our CleanSpace Wall encapsulation system. The special material is waterproof and does not allow the moisture from the outside to get into the home. The home owners will no longer need to worry about anymore water damaging their basement.
