The Basement Transformer Before & After Photos

A crawl space in Woodstock, NY had water seeping through its concrete walls and the homeowner reached out to us to see how we could help solve this issue. This was evident by the efflorescence on the walls. It forms after the minerals in concrete dissolve in water and the water evaporates, leaving this chalky white substance behind. 

Our specialist proposed installing our CleanSpace Encapsulation System to seal out the moisture and prevent water vapor from making its way into the crawl space. This 20-mil thick plastic liner can be fitted to the exact size and shape of your crawl space, and seals it off completely from the earth. The CleanSpace Encapsulation System is extremely durable and long-lasting as well, thanks to the fact that it is made from plastics with different characteristics of flexibility and is resistant to punctures and tears. Mold and mildew growth cannot form on this liner either since it is made from plastic, which is an inorganic material. 

Once it was finished being installed, this homeowner knew their crawl space would be protected from water vapor and was transformed into a healthy and useable space! 

If basement windows, egress windows, or basement window wells are included in your finishing project, we like to install these first as well, so we know how much space we'll need to allocate for the walls. If you haven't heard about our basement window wells, be sure to ask us! They're a small addition that can make a big difference by maximizing natural sunlight in your finished space!

Before our transformation, this Allendale, NJ, home struggled with persistent water in the crawl space, a common yet frustrating issue. Notice in the before photo, the evident water damage and the sore need for a solution. After our intervention, the difference is clear. We installed IceGuard, SmartSump, CleanSpace, and a SaniDry Sedona, effectively turning a problem area into a clean, dry, and efficient space. This transformation not only solved the water trouble but also significantly contributed to the home's health and longevity. Just take a look at the after photo; the results speak volumes about how we can help keep your crawl space dry and protected.

There was a homeowner located in Hurley, NY that needed a top performing sump pump system. That’s when The Basement Transformer team came to help. Our crew installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which offers three lines of defense against flooding. This system includes two cast-iron Zoeller horsepower sump pumps and a battery back-up sump pump that assures homeowners everywhere that their TripleSafe Sump Pump will always work under any circumstance. All three of these pumps are designed to discharge thousands of gallons of water from your basement.

The lid and the floor drain are also airtight, keeping out unpleasant odors and ensuring that your sump pump will not become clogged with debris from the basement. It even features a WaterWatch Alarm system that will alert you in case water has risen past the point where the pumps should have activated.

After the concrete floor has been jackhammered to make room for our TripleSafe, the floor is restored, and it looks like our crew was never there.

Once this installation was complete this homeowner had no more mess and no more stress!

This Home is doing the basement in stages, The first thing we did is install and Egress Window to meet building code.
