Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Before, this Trumbull, CT basement was plagued by slow water leaks through its stone walls. As the water slowly crept in and evaporated, it left behind dirt and other unsightly marks on the walls of the basement. More than just a blemish, this dirt provides an organic surface on which mold can grow, which can lead to an unhealthy basement environment.

Our trusted waterproofing foreman, Sid Avis, used several of our patented products to correct the problem and transform the basement into a more pleasant space. First, he and his crew installed WaterGuard, an interior draining system, along the perimeter of the basement. Next, the crew attached CleanSpace liner around the basement walls, covering the leaky areas. In this case, CleanSpace works with WaterGuard to keep the basement dry and clean. CleanSpace, a heavy plastic liner, stops water vapor and drains wall leaks into the WaterGuard drain system below.

The homeowner was very pleased that Connecticut Basement Systems was able to correct the leaks in his basement, and even noticed that the CleanSpace liner had transformed his dark, dirty basement into a considerably brighter, more pleasant area in his home.

Over time, slow water leaks in this Trumbull, CT home left behind streaks and stains on the basement walls. As the water crept in and evaporated, it left behind unsightly dirt on the walls all around the home’s basement. These stains certainly turn the walls into eyesores, but they also provide an organic surface for mold to grow on, which can cause damage to the home and health problems for those who live in it.   

Our trusted waterproofing foreman, Krzys Wilk, spoke with the homeowner and found the best solution for this problem. To start, he and his crew installed WaterGuard, an interior draining system, around the perimeter of the basement. Next, the crew attached CleanSpace liner around the basement walls, covering the leaky areas. CleanSpace works together with WaterGuard to keep the basement dry and clean. CleanSpace, a heavy plastic liner, stops water vapor and drains wall leaks into the WaterGuard drain system below.

The crew finished up their work and the homeowner noticed an immediate change in her basement. The CleanSpace turned the dark, dirty basement into a clean, bright room, and ensures that the basement will remain this way for years to come. The homeowner was thrilled with the results and could not wait to make use of her newly improved basement.

In this Bridgeport home the homeowners had a dirty, damp, uninviting crawl space. The homeowners were worried if the crawlspace stayed damp that it would damage the support to their home. If it continued to stay damp it would have damaged the support and the floors would have begun to sink. The homeowners contacted the experts at CT Basement Systems to make sure that the problem was taken care of. We came in and installed our Clean Space Vapor barrier. The encapsulation treatment totally separates and protects the crawl space interior from outdoor conditions, keeping the space clean and dry. To insualte and help protect we also installed our SilverGlo™ which  is an expanded polystyrene foam insulation that's been infused with graphite during its creation to improve its insular ability by 24%.
