Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This Stamford, CT basement suffered from constant water damage and mold growth and these homeowners were ready to find a solution. After speaking with Sales Consultant, James Stablein, from Connecticut Basement Systems, these homeowners were ready to start the waterproofing process. Foreman, Noel Harvey, and his team got right to work by installing our WaterGuard below-floor drainage system to guide unwanted water to our TripleSafe Sump Pump system. Although our pump is not pictured, it plays a crucial role in pumping the water out of the home and keeping this basement completely dry. In addition, our team installed our CleanSpace Wall System to not only give this basement a brighter look but also play a role in guiding water vapor passing through the foundation wall to our TripleSafe Sump Pump. Now, this basement stays dry throughout the year, bringing immense relief to the homeowners and ensuring protection against water damage!

A homeowner in Stamford, CT was getting water in their basement and wanted to find a way to prevent it. They made the right decision when they called us at Connecticut Basement Systems. After scheduling an appointment, one of our Sales Consultants, Bill Caple, went out to the home to assess the issues and provide a proper solution. 

Soon after, it would be time for one of our Foremen, Sidney Avis, and his crew to get to work on the project. They installed a DryTrak drainage system to collect any water coming in from the walls. Then they installed a TripleSafe sump pump to take that collected water and pump it out of the home at a safe distance. Now this basement is waterproofed and the homeowner is happy with the results! 

This Stamford, CT home had a basement that was suffering from serious water damage. Water had been leaking in at the seam where this basement wall meets the floor, and was causing the base of the wall to rot away. This leak was turning the basement into an eyesore, and made it susceptible to mold growth. Seeking a solution for his problem, the homeowner did some online research and decided to schedule an appointment with the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems. 

Soon after, sales representative Gary Meglino traveled to the home and met with the homeowner. Gary entered the basement and made an efficient assessment of the problem, then shared his findings with the homeowner. Together, they found the solution that would work best for him and his home. In the end, they agreed that the best option was to correct the problem using WaterGuard and CleanSpace. 

WaterGuard is a patented below-floor drain that is installed along the inside perimeter of the basement walls. As water leaks into the basement, WaterGuard catches it and directs it to a sump pump, which then pumps the water up and out of the basement. Foreman Marcial Lopez and his crew are well-experienced at installing products like WaterGuard, so when they arrived to begin production, they worked carefully and efficiently to rid the home of all basement leaks. Once WaterGuard was installed, the crew finished up by installing CleanSpace along the base of the basement walls where they had worked. CleanSpace is ideal for jobs like this because it acts as a vapor barrier, preventing water vapor and humidity from passing into the basement. This limits basement moisture and helps to prevent mold growth. 

When the team had finished, the homeowner was thrilled with the results. The unightly damage to his wall was gone, and so was the leak that caused it. The homeowner thanked the crew for their work and took comfort in knowing that his basement water issue had been solved. 

Before, these basement walls let moisture seep through into the basement, causing damage to the floor and walls. More than just a nuisance, the water damage created a moist environment suitable for mold growth, which can threaten both the value of the home and the health of its owners. Knowing they had to act quickly, these homeowners reached out to Connecticut Basement Systems for a lasting solution.

Once we arrived, we waterproofed the basement by installing our patented WaterGuard System, which runs along the perimeter of the basement and directs any leaking water into a sump pump. After this, Foreman Chavon Bowman replaced the damaged portions of drywall with more durable EverLast Wall Panels, which are made from inorganic materials, will not be damaged by water and can even withstand flooding. Complete with a decorative molding, these new wall panels help to give the home an improved look while also eliminating any potential for mold growth. As a result, these homeowners were quite pleased with this improved, dry basement.

This homeowner was struggling with water in their basement and they decided it was time to call us at Connecticut Basement Systems to solve their problems. After scheduling an appointment, one of our Sales Consultants, Jimmy Stablien, went out to the home to assess the issues and provide the correct solution. 

The next step would be for one of our Foremen, Krzys Wilk, and his crew to work on the installation of this project. They installed a TripleSafe sump pump along with WaterGuard perimeter drain in order to collect and pump out the water from the home at a safe distance. Without these systems, the basement would still get water and not be protected. But now any water coming in will always have a way out of the home and this basement will stay dry.
