Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Before, this Trumbull, CT homeowner’s basement window had been damaged over time by the same problems that many basement windows encounter. Most basement windows do not seal well, and the basement’s naturally low air pressure wants to suck air into the home. This combination can lead to expensive heating and cooling costs. Plus, the old metal window frame had been damaged by moisture and rust over time, leaving an eyesore in the middle of this homeowner’s basement.

Our trusted foreman, Noel Harvey, had just the solution for this problem. He quickly installed EverLast Windows – the perfect window for any basement. EverLast windows have double pane glass and strong weather stripping, which helped to maximize the comfort and efficiency of the home. Plus, EverLast Windows are made from vinyl, which will never rot, rust, or even need paint, so they will hold up against any and all moisture that they face.

The homeowner’s once rusty windows had become a beautiful new part of her home, and she was thrilled with the transformation that Connecticut Basement Systems was able to give her.

Before, this Trumbull, CT homeowner’s basement was susceptible to problematic leaks and other water damage caused by this water heater. Water heaters automatically refill themselves, so when a water heater leaks, it leaks nonstop. Since the average water heater can last as little as 7 years, our experienced waterproofing Foreman, Marcio Bahiense, advised the homeowner to protect their home against a potentially disastrous flood.

After speaking with the homeowner, Marcio determined that the best solution for this home was to install Connecticut Basement Systems’ patented TrenchDrain drainage system. The grated openings on TrenchDrain allow the system to collect all flood water without taking up space or causing a tripping hazard in the basement. Once water flows into the drain, it is redirected to a sump pump to be completely removed from the basement. TrenchDrain also has a removable lid for easy cleaning and service, and even includes a written lifetime warranty.

Marcio quickly installed TrenchDrain, and the homeowner was very pleased with the results. She knew that her new drainage system would protect her basement and the value of her home for years to come, which gave her peace of mind.

Before, this homeowner’s basement relied on an outdated and unreliable sump pump to prevent flooding and maintain a clean, dry environment. With only one pump, this old sump pump would be useless in the case of a mechanical failure or power outage.

Our Foreman, Marcial Lopez, ensured that the pump has been replaced by Connecticut Basement Systems’ most reliable sump pump – the TripleSafe. This unique sump pump comes with three separate pumps to keep your home safe in any situation. If the primary pump is overwhelmed by extremely heavy waters, then the secondary pump will kick in and assist it. Even in the case of a power outage, a battery-operated backup pump will activate to keep the basement dry. Now the homeowner can find peace of mind in knowing that his basement is well protected from heavy rainfall and water damage.

Before, this Trumbull, CT home had over a foot of water in the basement! Due to the home being foreclosed, the property manager immediately called the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems to provide a permanent solution to waterproof the basement.

Our Sales Representative, Doug Wheeler, put on his rainboots, took measurements and proposed a permanent basement solution. The property manager agreed to the job and the work was scheduled to accommodate the urgency of the situation. Once the water was pumped out of the area by a restoration company, our project was able to begin. Foreman, Cisco Berrios, and his team worked a long 2 days to install a Watergaurd System paired with a TripleSafe Sump Pump.

Now, this home with a dry basement is ready to be sold to a future homeowner!

A homeowner in Trumbull, CT was experiencing water issues in their basement, until they called us at Connecticut Basement Systems. One of our Salesmen, Cary Benjamin, went out to the home to assess the problems. After diagnosing, it would be time for one of our Foremen, Garfield Sanderson, and his crew, to come out and tackle this project. They installed our WaterGuard, TripleSafe Sump Pump, and CleanSpace systems to completely waterproof the space. The WaterGuard and TripleSafe work together by collecting the water and safely pumping it out. The CleanSpace will protect the walls from future moisture damage. This homeowner is happy with the results, knowing their basement will stay dry!
