Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

When water used to pool into the basement, it had nowhere to go. Puddles of standing water can lead to problems like mold and rot. To pump water out of the home, we installed our SuperSump sump pump system. Inside the SuperSump is the powerful, top-quality Zoeller sump pump, capable of pumping up to 2280 gal. per hour. The owners of this Norwalk, CT home now have peace of mind knowing that their basement will be dry, even in heavy rainstorms!

Before we arrived at this basement, water would leak from the wall-floor joint every time it rained. To prevent water from entering the house, we installed our WaterGuard drain around the perimeter of the basement. WaterGuard effectively captures wall and floor seepage before it reaches your basement floor. The drainage system transports all ground water to a sump pump, so that it can be pumped outside. The owners of this home now enjoy a dry basement, even in the heaviest storms!

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. 

We epoxy the drain pipe directly to the floor, and leave a slight opening along the top to collect water leaking in from the walls. Thus, your home is waterproofed without jackhammering!

This homeowner in Norwalk, CT noticed the floors sagging and decided to call our Foundation Supportworks team at Connecticut Basement Systems. One of our Sales Consultants, Gus Stozinic, went out to the home to assess the issues. Then our Foreman Sergio Alves and Jacob Scott got to work on this project. They installed our SmartJack Systems. These SmartJacks are tightened so that the floor is level and stable. The homeowner was able to notice a difference and they are thrilled that their floor is strong and no longer sagging!
