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!
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!
Omar and his team stabilized this wall in Hurley, NY for a homeowner that contacted us about this failing wall. They used the PowerBrace Foundation Wall Repair System to restore the structural integrity of the wall and prevent any more damage from occurring. These steel I-beams are secured to the joists above the wall using steel brackets and the system is easily adjustable, which allows for the possibility of the wall going back into its original position. This wall isn’t going anywhere now thanks to our permanent foundation repair solution!
A member of our team sealed this bothersome wall crack for a homeowner in Central Valley, NY. The crack was sealed with our FlexiSpan Wall Crack Repair System. Unlike other methods commonly used to fix wall cracks, this system is designed to move with the wall. Even if there is a slight shift in the wall, the crack will remain closed because of the flexible sealant that was used. Now the homeowner does not have to stress!
