Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This Stratford, CT homeowner used to have a basement with unfinished walls and floors, making for a cold and uncomfortable basement environment. As a result, the homeowner rarely used his basement, and wanted to finish it so that it could be used as additional living space. After seeing one of our advertisements online, he reached out to the experts at Total Basement Finishing to find a solution.

Before long, Sales Representative Matt Kraus traveled to the home to assess the basement. After taking a look around, Matt was able to come up with some potential finishing solutions, so he shared his findings with the homeowner, and they decided to moce forward with the project. 

On the first day of production, Finishing Foreman Roberto DeMacedo arrived at the home to begin his work. He started by installing ThermalDry floors throughout the basement, which are waterproof and come with a buil-in thermal break that keeps floors up to ten degrees warmer than the cold concrete below. Then, he added EverLast walls, which are more durable than traditional drywall, and come with built in rigid foam insulation to help keep the basement warm and energy efficient. The EverLast also helped to finish the basement stairway, which really gave the basement a full, finished look. 

By the time Roberto's work was done, the homeowner could hardly recognize his basement. He was startled by how much warmer and brighter his basement had become, and could not wait to enjoy this added living space for years to come. 

A homeowner in Stratford, CT was getting water in their basement and needed a solution, so they called us at Connecticut Basement Systems. After scheduling an appointment with us, one of our Sales Consultants, Gus Stozinic, went to the home to assess the issues and propose a solution. 

Soon it would be time for one of our Foremen, Al Guglielmoni, and his team would install this project. They installed WaterGuard drains around the perimeter of the basement, under the floor, to collect water coming in from the walls or floors. They also installed one of our TripleSafe sump pumps that will pump the water out of the home at a safe distance. They installed a CleanSpace wall system to protect from vapor. Now with these systems, this basement will stay dry all the time. 

A homeowner in Stratford, CT was looking to install an egress window in their basement. They called us at Connecticut Basement Systems and we sent one of our Salesmen, Don Godbout, to the home to assess the area and propose our RockWell Egress Window. 

One of our Foremen, Sergio Alves, and Jacob Scott installed this egress. After having the foundation cut, they installed framing for a new window and then installed it. They then installed our RockWell egress which is up to safety code, so that in case of an emergency, someone in the basement has an easy way out the window and up the egress. This will add value to the home, make the basement brighter, and look like a whole new space! The customer was thrilled with the results!
