Damp Crawl Space Saved in Eau Claire, WI

A homeowner from Eau Claire, WI, was walking across her main level one day when she noticed that a portion of the floor was much colder than the rest. It occurred to her that this cold space was directly above the crawl space of the home. She began to scour the internet for local crawl space repair companies and crawl space technicians in the area and quickly found our website. She was impressed with our previous crawl space liner installation photos and decided to schedule her FREE estimate. Several weeks later, one of our Design Specialist, Chuck H, was headed out to the home. 

When Chuck arrived, he wasted no time getting down into the crawl space to see what could be causing the problem. When he was finished with his inspection, he met with the homeowners to discuss his findings and the next steps in the process. Chuck first wanted to address the energy inefficiency of the space, stating that crawl space insulation is of the utmost importance, as many comfort and energy problems are caused by inadequate or incorrect crawl space insulation. Chuck's first recommendation, TerraBlock, was developed to meet the challenge of insulating rough, uneven crawl space floors, and can be combined with other products to maximize the space's efficiency. Second, Chuck wanted to use our  Foamax wall panels. Foamax is a polyisocyanurate foam insulation panel with a white foil finish on the front and a foil vapor barrier on the back. Insulating your basement walls with Foamax provides comfort and energy bill savings while making your walls look clean and bright. Foamax is an advanced foam insulation panel that reduces condensation for exceptional moisture protection. Then,  Chuck informed the homeowner that he found significant evidence of water intrusion in the crawl space. He explained that this could lead to mold, mildew, wood rot, and a plethora of other airborne allergens. For this reason, Chuck went on and recommended our CleanSpace vapor barrier, a 100% waterproof tarp-like material that gets installed directly to the walls of the crawl space and works to collect water entering through cracks and holes in the foundation downward and keeping it off the floor. To complement this product, Chuck wanted to use our drainage matting, a dimpled mat that goes down on the crawl space floor before the CleanSpace, providing entering the water a channel to flow to the appropriate disposal site. The homeowner was thrilled with Chuck's comprehensive approach to the problem and signed on the spot. 

The project day rolled around several weeks later. Our Foreman, Jesus R, was able to lead his team through a flawlessly executed installation of  1372sqft of CleanSpace, 1170 sqft of drainage matting, 1170 sqft of TerraBlock, and another 600 sqft of Foamax. Now, our customer can walk across a nice warm floor with the confidence that her crawl space is properly sealed and saving her money! 

Failing Sump Pump Saved in Eau Claire, WI

During a thunderstorm, a homeowner in Eau Claire, WI, listened as his sump pump struggled to remove the water. Knowing that the Midwest weather can be unpredictable, the homeowner began looking into basement waterproofing contractors in the area and found us. After looking through our website and becoming drawn by our sump pumps, the homeowner contacted us to schedule his FREE estimate. 

In about a week, our Design Specialist, Ross, arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, he talked to the homeowner to get a better understanding of their concerns. The homeowner explained that he is just looking to get his current sump pump working again, but wanted to keep it within his budget. Ross understood and recommended our Zoeller M-53 1/3 HP pump, which is capable of removing 2,200 gallons of water per hour, UltraSump, our battery backup pump that can operate during power outages, and IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge line attachment that allows water to escape in case the sump pump discharge pipes freeze. Both pumps would be installed in the homeowner's current sump pump system, replacing the current broken pumps. After looking over Ross's proposal, the homeowner happily agreed and scheduled the installation date.

In about a week, our Foreman, Lane S., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. The crew began by taking out the old pump and replacing it with our Zoeller M-53 pump and UltraSump. Lastly, the crew installed 1 IceGuard outside of the home and connected it to the sump system. After the crew was done with the installation, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.
