Above the drying concrete is our BrightWall panels. They are the ideal solution for homeowners who want their basement to look nice and bright, while acting as a vapor barrier and redirecting water to a drainage system.
With a monolitic floor, it can often be difficult to install a below-floor drain due to the thickness of the concrete. To allieviate water pressure that builds up around the foundation and prevent cracking, our team drilled weep holes around the perimeter of the basement, and then covered them with the DryTrak perimeter drain system.
Before we came in, the crawlspace had no access well. It was a hole in the side of the home that was open to any bugs, rodents, water, or even people that came in. We installed a Turtl access well. This airtight covered well is made of durable plastic, so it will never corrode or rot. It also has the added benefit of being lockable, for guaranteed security.
When we arrived in this home, we found that water was leaking inside through the garage door. When we encounter this kind of situation, we usually recommend our TrenchDrain drainage pipe system. It is uniquely designed to span doorways, garage entrances, and similar entryway doors. TrenchDrain resembles half of a basement drainage pipe, with a grated opening fitted snugly on top. In this home, we installed this grated drain flush with the floor, eliminating any tripping hazard. Any water that will pass over the drain is collected through the openings and redirected to the sump pump. The owners of this house can rest easy knowing that their garage is protected against leaks!
The homeowners in this Franklin home had a continuing water problem in their basement. The basement would have water coming in during heavy rains and would pool in the basement since there wasn't an existing sump pump or drain system to take it out of the home. The homeowners contacted the experts at CT Basement Systems and all the water problems are gone! We installed our WaterGuard® system. Our drain system is an award winning patented drain system that carries the water effectively into our TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System. Our Sump pump system has three pumps to make sure that all of the water that comes in is pumped out of the home. The first pump which sits lowest of the three pumps first, but if it can't keep up the second pump will turn on and run at the same time. If the power goes out then the third pump which is battery operated kicks on while an alarm is ringing to let you know that it's running.
The home owner now has zero waterproofing issues.
