Before & After Photos

Once the concrete around this TrenchDrain dries, it will be ready to stop any water flowing through the doorway for years to come! 

Water used to flood this basement through the hatchway door, especially during heavy rainstorms. To prevent this, we installed the TrenchDrain grated drainage system. It is uniquely designed to span doorways, hatchway entrances, and similar entryway doors. Any water passing over the drain is collected through the openings and redirected to the sump pump. The homeowners don't have to worry about basement flooding anymore!

In this basement, water was backing up due to the old sump pump failing and not being able to handle the water coming in from the snow. The discharge line was held up by peices of string, and was too small. We were called and installed our Triplesafe sump pump. Now the homeowner doesn't have to worry about water backing up. If there is too much water for the first pump to handle then the second pump works at the same time from another discharge line. In addition what is great about the Triplesafe sump pump, is in the bad luck of a power outtage a battery pack and third pump take over, and can pump up to 12,000 gallons. All this added security wil complete your protection.

This West Haven crawlspace flooded 2 feet of water that seeped into their finished basement, damaging their floors and wall, making the space unusable. With soaked flooring and moldy damp walls, they knew Connecticut Basement Systems was the company to call to make their finished basement usable again.

Our System Design Specialist, Brad Glazer, came to the home to perform an evaluation of the basement. He concluded that ThermalDry Modular Flooring and EverLast Wall Panels would be the perfect flooring and wall solution. With a plan set, our production team came to the home and started the project. ThermalDry basement floor tiles are engineered specifically for basement floors. There is a grid design that stops water vapor from getting trapped underneath finished floors, which prevents mold and odors. The EverLast walls are the perfect choice because they are 197% stronger than drywall and cannot be damaged by moisture and are mold resistant. Now, not only will these West Haven homeowners enjoy their basement again, but they do not have to worry about their floors or walls having issues due to moisture or mold.

As you can see from the after picture, the floors and walls look picture perfect in the basement. Now, the homeowners can enjoy their finished basement without the worry of damaged floors or walls.

Before, this West Haven basement would get unwanted water seeping through the area. This greatly frustrated the homeowner because he used his basement as a place to relax and enjoy. He wanted to waterproof the area so this would not become a problem anymore. After doing much research, he decided to trust the experts at Connecticut Basement Systems.

To ensure that water would not enter the basement anymore, a WaterGuard system was installed paired with a TripleSafe sump pump system. The WaterGuard is a below the floor system that collects water internally and channeling it to the TripleSafe sump pump. From the TripleSafe, the water is discharged away from the home. A SaniDry Sedona was also installed to keep humidity low which will increase the quality of air. There was water damage on the walls that was attracting mold and was not appealing. To solve this problem, we installed a half wall restoration system to the walls, essentially removing the bottom water damaged wall and replacing with our EverLast paneling which will prevent mold. ThermalDry Charcoal Carpet was also installed to give the basement a finished look. The homeowner is now extremely satisfied with his dry and healthier basement!
