Preventing Two Inches of Water from Flooding a Basement in Cornwall, NY

Preventing Two Inches of Water from Flooding a Basement in Cornwall, NY

Before After
Preventing Two Inches of Water from Flooding a Basement in Cornwall, NY Preventing Two Inches of Water from Flooding a Basement in Cornwall, NY

We received a call from a homeowner located in Cornwall, NY who needed help protecting their basement from flooding. Every time it rained, they would get two inches of water inside of their basement. This is truly a nightmare for homeowners, because that much water can do a lot of damage to the basement. Our specialist determined that a TripleSafe Sump Pump System needed to be installed to protect this basement from flooding in the future.

This patented sump pump system that we offer provides the ultimate protection against flooding thanks to its three lines of defense.

It features two cast-iron Zoeller horsepower sump pumps capable of discharging thousands of gallons of water from your home. If either pump fails, or if there is a power outage, the UltraSump Battery Backup System will turn on and save the day. This backup system ensures that your sump pump continues to run smoothly, and on a fully charged battery it can discharge up to 11,500 gallons of water or more!

After the sump pump system was installed, the homeowner could relax knowing their basement was now protected from floods.

Job Stories From Cornwall, NY
Transforming Basement Walls with CleanSpace in Cornwall, NY

The walls in this basement located in Cornwall, NY were an absolute disaster before we stepped in to help. The porous concrete walls had been previously covered in tar starting at about a foot down from the top of the wall, and it extended all the way onto the floor. This was not a proper solution for keeping water from seeping through the concrete walls and into the basement. To help this homeowner solve this problem and to make the walls look better than they ever have, we installed our CleanSpace Wall System.

This plastic vapor barrier is completely and totally waterproof, with antimicrobial protection built right into it. This means that mold and mildew growth cannot be supported. This product is made to cover uneven surfaces such as the ones found in this homeowner’s basement, and it is also extremely durable and pliable.

Thanks to its plastic drilled-in fasteners, it will never fall off your walls either.

CleanSpace is even compatible with the drainage system we installed for this homeowner and will help direct any water coming through the walls into it.

Once it was finished being installed, this homeowner knew water vapor could no longer make its way through their basement walls.

Fighting Floods and Humidity in Cornwall, NY

A homeowner located in Cornwall, NY called us after their basement flooded twice after the ice from the winter had melted on their property. The maximum amount of water they experienced in their basement was about 2-3 inches in total. They wanted to make sure this situation did not happen again and that any water finding its way into their basement would have a proper escape route. 

There was also mold found in the basement behind their washing machine and the water damage from the floods had cost them tons of money. They wanted to address the quality of the air inside the basement as well. 

 

Our specialist proposed installing our trustworthy TripleSafe Sump Pump System and SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to take care of the problem. 

The TripleSafe Sump Pump system provides the ultimate protection against floods because it is equipped with three lines of defense against water intrusion. It features two horsepower cast-iron Zoeller pumps capable of discharging thousands of gallons of water. If either pump fails or if there is a power outage, the UltraSump Battery Backup System we attached will take over and keep the system running as planned. On a fully charged battery, this device can remove up to 11,500 gallons of water or more! 

The SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier is a highly efficient dehumidification system with air filtration built right in. It can take up to 100 pints of water out of your air per day while filtering out the tiniest particles, ones even smaller than any mold spore or dust mite dropping. It dries your air and moves that dry air all throughout your space. If you have dry air in your basement that then dries the items inside your basement, mold cannot grow or survive on them!  

 

Once both products were installed this homeowner knew their basement was protected against floods and humidity.
