Connecticut Basement Systems Before & After Photos

This Milford, CT home had a basement that had insufficient walls and flooring. The bottom half of the walls were affected by water damage and the floors were cold and uncomfortable. Wanting a solution, the homeowner decided to contact the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems.

The solution was to install EverLast half wall restoration and ThermalDry tiles. The EverLast half wall restoration system is mold and water resistant which is ideal for any basement. ThermalDry flooring is attractive and has a warmer footing compared to traditional concrete making it more comfortable for all to enjoy. The transformation is incredible! 

A Milford, CT homeowner was getting water seepage in their basement so they contacted us at Connecticut Basement Systems in search of a permanent solution. One of our Salesmen, Matt Kraus, visited the home to assess the basement and propose our waterproofing system as the solution. 

Soon after, it would be time for one of our Foremen, Al, and his crew to install the job. They put in our WaterGuard drainage system below the floor, around the entire perimeter of the basement to capture water seepage. Then our CleanSpace vapor barrier was installed on the walls to protect from moisture. Next, they put in our SuperSump Plus sump pump with our UltraSump battery backup to safely pump out all collected water from the home. We also installed our flooring throughout the basement to give it a fresh look!

Now with our systems in place, this basement will stay dry and the homeowner can live with great peace of mind.

A Milford, CT homeowner was getting water seeping into their basement, so they called us at Connecticut Basement Systems searching for a permanent solution. One of our Salesmen, Brian DiRisi, visited the home to assess the basement and propose our entire perimeter waterproofing system. 

Soon after, it would be time for one of our Foremen, Marcio, and his team to install this job. Because this basement had a monolithic foundation, both of our drainage systems were used, our DryTrak and our WaterGuard. DryTrak was installed around the perimeter but above the floor and will still capture water seepage from the walls. WaterGuard was installed in other areas to help lead groundwater seepage into the sump pump. Our TripleSafe and SuperSump Plus sump pumps were installed and will effectively pump out any collected water. CleanSpace vapor barrier was put on the walls to protect from moisture, but also to help direct water from the walls into the DryTrak. 

Now that are systems are in place, this entire basement will stay dry all the time, ensuring the homeowner's peace of mind. 

Foundation Supportworks Push Piers are made of steel and are driven deep into the soil beneath a foundation to solve settlement problems. Push piers can be installed inside or outside your foundation walls and are not visible once the repair is complete. Push piers not only stop settlement but lift the foundation back to its original position, closing cracks and improving window and door operation.

For homes in flood zones, including this one from Milford, CT, it's often beneficial for basements to have flood vents. These vents help equalize water pressure between the inside and outside of the house, preventing foundation collapse. However, openings in the basement can also let dirt, humidity, or pests into the home. The SmartVent we installed will remain closed until flood waters reach it. Not only did we protect this basement, but saved the homeowners money by reducing their flood insurance costs!
