Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This homeowner from Westerly, RI wanted to improve the air quality in his basement. The air felt humid, which can cause mold to grow onto any organic material, such as the wood supporting the floor above! If that wood were to be overtaken by mold, a structural collapse could occur, severely injuring anybody living there. To give this homeowner an everlasting peace of mind, our production crew covered the interior walls with CleanSpace wall vapor barrier to prevent the outside moisture from coming in. Lastly, they hooked up a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to dry out the humid air which greatly increased the air quality! 

This crawl space from Westerly, RI was musty and gross from all of the excess moisture getting in. Yuck! Our team cleaned out all the debris and wrapped up the floor with our CleanSpace vapor barrier to protect this crawl space from moisture. By preventing moisture intrusion, we decrease the chances of mold growth and musty odors! 

WaterGuard is the drainage system DryZone uses around the perimeter of the basement to stop water from entering through the floor/wall seam. This property in Westerly, RI needed the WaterGuard installed right where the basement stairs were! We came in and removed the lower stair treads to install the WaterGuard system and put them right back when we were done!

In the first photo, notice the efflorescence of the wall from water coming into the basement. There is also water damage to the floors.

The second photo is a shot of our UltraSump and SuperSump Plus. The UltraSump is the black box in the photo. It is a battery backup, making the pump work even during power outages. The drying concrete around the perimeter of the room is where WaterGuard sub-floor drainage was installed to guide water to the pump.
