Before & After Photos

This basement in Derby, CT was crowded, uninviting, and not a space the family felt comfortable using. They wanted to turn it into a space they could use year round, so they called Connecticut Basement Systems to get the job done.

Micah Smith came out to the home, and quickly surveyed what could be done to this space. He brought out Sheldon Lennon and his team, and they quickly got to work! They first air sealed the entire home with rim joist insulation. This insulation is important to keeping the basement warm, and it is an affordable option that is high coverage. They then installed ThermalDry floor tiles in sandstone gray. These tiles are a great option because they can snap together over concrete, and create a great thermal barrier, so your feet are never cold! We also installed Everlast wall panels around the entire basement. These panels are made of inorganic materials and great for the basement environment!

This basement completely transformed into a space this family can now use for whatever they please! Call us TODAY for your free basement finishing estimate!

 A homeowner in Middlebury was getting water seepage in their basement. They reached out to us at Connecticut Basement Systems to find a solution. We sent out one of our Sales Consultants, Mick Foster, to the home to assess the problems and propose a full perimeter waterproofing solution. 

Soon after it would be time for one of our Foremen, Al Guglielmoni, and his team to install this entire project. They installed our WaterGuard drainage system below the floor, around the entire perimeter of the basement to capture water coming in from the walls or floors. Then they installed our TripleSafe sump pump to take that collected water and pump it out of the home at a safe distance. Our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was installed to eliminate moisture and prevent mold growth. 

Our systems will keep this basement dry and give the homeowner peace of mind! 

This Total Basement Finishing Job was completed in Milford, CT. This remodel created a new, dry, waterproofed space for the kids to play in. Not only did we add flooring, new lights, wall panels, but we made these stairs safer and more aesthetically appealing.

Before, this basement window was clearly inefficient with cracks along the edges to allow air and moisture. The homeowners had even tried to cover the air leaks with a flimsy piece of cardboard as a last resort. They knew that an upgrade to their windows were a must. Connecticut Basement Systems was able to provide a permanent solution for their Milford home.

The solution was to install EverLast windows. These windows are built with reinforced vinyl frames so there is never a worry for rust or rot. This was a problem in the previous windows that is no longer an issue. EverLast windows have double-pane glass that will prevent heat loss, making your home more energy efficient. Not only are these windows practical, but they are a beautiful addition and let in a lot of natural light! This is exactly what the homeowner had wanted and was pleased with the results! 

When a basement window has an insufficient window well, it can cause a lot of obstruction with dirt and debris. This obstruction can deter light from entering the basement and it is unappealing to look at from the outside. The homeowner wanted to install a window well that would protect their brand new windows. Connecticut Basement Systems was more than happy to provide a solution.

The solution was to install a Sun House window well. Our Sun House window well is superior compared to others because it is made from a durable, high-strength plastic that will never rust, deteriorate or require painting. The solid base keeps the well clean and prevents weeds from growing on the window well floor. This is exactly what the homeowner wanted and the difference is incredible!
