Basement Door in Columbia, CT
A door leading outside from the Columbia, CT basement allowed water to enter the basement. To prevent this from happening and get the basement much more dry, we installed a trench drain at the entrance of the basement. Its open grate collects water into the WaterGuard sub-floor perimeter drainage system, and it is directed out of the basement. The basement is now dry for the homeowners to enjoy.
Old Dehumidifier in Columbia, CT
The homeowners of the Columbia, CT basement already had a dehumidifier in their basement to keep humidity levels low. However, this small, low powered dehumidifier was not doing enough to keep the basement dry. We installed our SaniDry XP Basement Air System, high powered and energy efficient dehumidifier. It removes up to 109 liters of water per day from the basement air, and it is self draining so the homeowners do not have to worry about remembering to empty it. A dry environment greatly reduces the potential for mold or mildew growth.
Basement Drywall in Columbia, CT
The drywall in the Columbia, CT basement was moldy and starting to fall apart from moisture. To repair these damaged walls, we installed our EverLast Finished Wall Restoration System. Durable inorganic panels are installed in place of the bottom 32 inches of drywall. These will not be damaged by water, and they will even withstand flooding. Decorative molding and a chair rail increased the aesthetic appeal of the basement as well.
Perimeter Drainage in Columbia, CT
To dry out the basement of the Columbia, CT home, we installed our WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system around the entire perimeter of the basement. Our unique drains sit above the foot of the floor and are highly resistant to clogging. They also have easily accessed maintenance ports and draw water out of the wall to prevent it from entering the basement. The homeowners now have a dry basement living space to enjoy.
