Eliminating the Odors Inside a Dirt Crawl Space in Saugerties, NY

A homeowner in Saugerties, NY called us to take care of their dirty crawl space that had been giving them issues for 12 years. This crawl space was wreaking havoc and causing the upper portion of the home to have a musty or moldy smell. To eliminate the problem, we encapsulated the crawl space using our CleanSpace Encapsulation System and installed our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. The CleanSpace Encapsulation System serves as a barrier and seals off the crawl space from the earth, preventing water vapor from entering. The SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier takes up to 100 pints of water out of your crawl space air per day, making the air nice and dry, which causes that damp smell to go away.

Rehab in Newburgh, NY

This home, in Newburgh NY, was mostly renovated by the bank when a young couple purchased the home. There were a few things to complete that the bank did not do. This one is fixing the drywall in the garage. When an electrician cut the drywall to install a sub-panel in the basement he failed to close the hole in the wall. This is a garage and builing code requires that it be sealed to meet the fire ratings. We came in and patched with the propper drywall to get the fire rating back.

Encapsulating a Crawlspace in Highland, NY

This homeowner in Highland, NY had a crawlspace with a dirt floor and moisture issues. The insulation was also falling apart, indicating that it was absorbing water.

Overall, it was not a great environment, and that is exactly why the homeowner contacted us to help them. Our crew knew that our CleanSpace Encapsulation System and SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier would offer the solutions this homeowner was looking for. The CleanSpace encapsulation liner is made of 20mil reinforced polymer that is resistant to wear and tears. It is designed to prevent water vapor from passing through and into your crawlspace.  Mold growth and mildew growth are not supported by this liner either.

We also installed our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to purify the air and keep it dry within the crawlspace. It is extremely efficient and is capable of removing up to 100 pints of water in a single day. This dehumidifier also moves dry air out and around your crawlspace, so you don’t have to worry about damp air infiltrating the other areas of your home. It even filters particles out of the air that are smaller than any mold spore or dust mite dropping, ensuring your air is clean and safe to breathe in!

When our team was done, this homeowner experienced peace of mind knowing their crawlspace was safe and dry.

Replacing a Failed Sump Pump with The TripleSafe Sump Pump in Lake Katrine, NY

This homeowner’s old sump pump system was a complete disaster. It was allowing water to leak out everywhere, and pool onto the basement floor. That’s when The Basement Transformer answered the call to come and help. We gave this homeowner our state of the art, TripleSafe Sump Pump System. It is designed to discharge thousands of gallons of water out and away from a home, so that a wet basement is no longer a concern. This sump pump system features both a primary and secondary pump, along with an UltraSump battery-powered back up pump in case of failure or a power outage occurs. 

The primary pump is a Zoeller 1/3 horsepower sump pump that can discharge up to 2,220 gallons of water, while the secondary pump can get rid of up to 3,900 additional gallons of water. When fully charged, the battery powered back up pump can pump out 11,500 gallons of water or more! 

With our TripleSafe Sump Pump System installed, this homeowner became fully equipped with 3 levels of protection against flooding and achieved having a dry basement.
