WaterGuard Installation in Colchester, CT

A homeowner in Colchester, CT was experiencing issues with moisture accumulating alongside the perimeter of his basement. In need of a solution, he reached out to the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems for assistance.

Upon calling, the homeowner made contact with Sales Consultant Brian DiRisi. DiRisi listened attentively to the homeowner's concerns, suggested some ways of mitigating said problems, and scheduled a visit to the home for further evaluation.

Once a visit was scheduled, DiRisi measured the perimeter and took calculated notes to form a proposal tailored to the homeowner's issues. One of these solutions being WaterGuard, a French drain system that collects water running down the walls and along the foundation. Excess water collected by the WaterGuard system is funneled into our SuperSump sump pump [not pictured], then expelled in a safe location away from the house.

With approval from the homeowner, Foreman Moises Chantes and his team began work. Expertly removing the concrete along the perimeter allowed Chantes and his team to install the WaterGuard system, which was later covered with concrete for a seamless, non-invasive appearance. 

The homeowner was thrilled with the results and looks forward to using their dry basement without fear of further moisture accumulation!

Beautiful Crawl Space Transformation in Old Lyme, CT

Mark K. was complaining about a damp smell in the basement and coming from the crawl space and they were also concerned with cold floors above the crawl space. He wanted a solution, and he wanted one fast, so he gave us a call at Connecticut Basement Systems, and we were happy to come and see how we could solve his problem!

Our System Design Specialist, Ferdinand Gojani, came out to survey the space, and assess what needed to be done. The first thing he suggested was a CleanSpace Radiant Vapor Barrier. This bright, white vapor barrier completely transforms a crawl space, while also working to reduce moisture and humidity within the crawl space. It also helps seal out cold drafts in the winter, and is suitable over walls and floors. We also installed a SaniDry dehumidifier, which is designed to provide many years of energy-efficient, trouble-free performance, even in tough crawl space conditions. SilverGlo rigid foam insulation was also installed. This rigid foam insulation shed water instead of soaking it up like cellulose and fiberglass insulation. The best part? It doesn't support mold EVER. 

This crawl space was transformed from dark to dazzling, and this family can now use the space for storage! Call us TODAY for your free, crawl space estimate!

Before, this Stafford basement had constant water issues that would cause a wet and unpleasant area. The homeowner wanted a basement that would be pleasant and dry every time she entered. Searching for a permeant solution, she decided to call Connecticut Basement Systems.

The water is then channeled through the WaterGuard system and into the TripleSafe sump pump, where the water will then exit the home through a discharge line.

Now, the homeowner can enjoy a dry basement all year long thanks to the WaterGuard System and TripleSafe sump pump.
