This basement in Ferndale was finished about 2007 the first tme. The wonderful customers went for a product that was intended to be in a basement, a Fiberglass and Fabric wall panel system. We were called after the customer noticed a lot of water coming from a wall and they tore open the wall and were waiting for the appointment for the foundation waterproofing company. There was no leak in the foundation, just a massive amount of condensation that ruined the walls floors and ceilings.
This homeowner had concerns about the water & moisture in their basement, so they contacted The Basement Transformer to see how we could help. One section of the basement made of concrete walls and flooring was an unsightly mess and in need of serious repairs. Concrete is porous, which means water can easily find its way through and into a basement. To combat this problem, we installed our CleanSpace Wall System and our CleanSpace Encapsulation System on the floor.
Both are vapor barriers that are designed to prevent water from entering your home. The CleanSpace Wall System is 100% waterproof and contains anti-microbial protection, which ensures that mold will not form or grow. It is pliable and perfect for covering uneven walls or surfaces, such as the ones pictured below. The CleanSpace Encapsulation System is a durable 20 mil reinforced polymer liner which in addition to preventing moisture, keeps outside air and pests away from your basement. Once our team was done, this section of the basement was totally transformed and protected from water.
A homeowner in Parksville, NY had a dirt crawlspace with humidity issues, so they contacted our team at The Basement Transformer to see how we could help. Upon inspection, our crew figured out that our CleanSpace Encapsulation System would stop the water vapor from coming up through the soil. This 20-mil reinforced polymer liner is designed to prevent moisture from seeping into your crawl space. This vapor barrier also creates a healthier and cleaner environment in your home overall, since mold and mildew growth cannot grow on CleanSpace. This material is also extremely flexible and durable, which means it allowed us to customize the fit inside of this dirt crawl space filled with irregular shaped rocks and uneven surfaces. We seal it around these types of obstructions and at the seams with special tapes and other sealants. CleanSpace is made to be strong and durable as well, meaning it’s resistant to wear and tear and stays in place. Once our crew was finished, this homeowner was left with a clean and dry crawl space that was protected from the elements.
This was a finished basement from the 70's that we gutted everthing less the bar and pellet stove. We replaced the walls with Everlast Insulated wall panels New Linen Ceiling and ThermalDry Floor tiles
