Foundation SmartJacks in Higganum, CT

A homeowner in Higganum, CT had floors in their home that were not stable. They called us at Connecticut Basement Systems to have our foundation supportworks team come out and solve their problems. After scheduling an appointment, one of our Sales Consultants, Matt Kraus, went out to the home to assess the issues. He informed the homeowner that our team would need to install SmartJacks in the crawl space in order to stabilize the floors. 

Then it was time for one of our Foremen, Sergio Alves, and Jacob Scott to do the installation. First, they installed the supplemental beams and then dug into the ground to fit in each SmarJack footing. Then they fully installed 9 SmartJacks, spacing them out under the beams. Once these were tight in place, the floor would become stabilized and there would be no sagging. This homeowner is happy with the results knowing their house is going to stay stable. 

Basement Waterproofing in Broad Brook, CT

A homeowner in Broad Brook, CT was getting a lot of water coming into their basement. They made the smart decision to call us at Connecticut Basement Systems to find a solution. Once the homeowner scheduled an appointment, it would then be time for one of our Sales Consultants, Carey Benjamin, to go out to the home to assess the issues and provide a proper solution. 

Then after a proposal was made, it would be time for one of our Foremen, Al Guglielmoni, and his team to work on this project. They installed our perimeter WaterGuard system, running along the bottom of the walls below the concrete. Then they installed not one, but two of our sump pumps; one TripleSafe and one SuperSump Plus. They also installed CleanSpace on the walls to protect it from vapor, as well as installing a Sedona dehumidifier to reduce moisture and prevent mold growth. All of these systems would work together to collect water and pump it out of the home at a safe distance. Now this basement is completely dry and the homeowner was thrilled with the results! It went from having a musty smell to smelling clean and fresh!

A homeowner in South Glastonbury, CT was getting water seepage in their basement with heavy rains. They called us at Connecticut Basement Systems for a permanent solution. One of our Sales Consultants, Steve Godbout, went to the home to assess the basement and propose our waterproofing system as the solution. 

Then, after that, it would soon be time for installation by our Foreman Al and his crew. They installed our WaterGuard drainage system below the floor, around the entire perimeter of the basement, to capture water seepage. Then, they installed our TripleSafe sump pump to take the collected water and safely pump it out of the home. Our CleanSpace vapor barrier was put on the walls to protect from moisture and musty odors. 

Now, this basement is dry and will be all the time, leaving the homeowner with nothing but peace of mind.
