Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Longmeadow, MA stopped by our booth at a home show to talk about her basement. She and her husband wanted to eventually finish their basement. However, first, they had some humidity concerns that needed to be addressed first. High humidity causes many problems in a home such as mold (which grows at Relative Humidities [RH] above 75%), rot (which happens above 90% RH) odors, airborne mold spores that aggravate allergies and asthma, increased pests and insects such as termites, and higher air conditioning and heating costs. Result - cold floors above, condensation, mold, rot, odors, drafty, uncomfortable home, higher fuel and electric bills.

We had the perfect solution for this customer. The SaniDry™ Sedona air system is a powerful but energy efficient dehumidification and air filtration system in one unit. Able to remove an incredible 100 pints of water per day and using only 5.9 amps of electricity, the SaniDry™ Sedona drains automatically to a sump or the outside with a condensate pump. It has a powerful 310 cfm blower to circulate the dry air completely around to dry building materials and contents. Mold doesn’t have a chance! An automatic control is easy - set it to 55% RH and forget it - the SaniDry™ Sedona does the rest! And there’s no buckets to empty! Results - Low Relative Humidity, mold stops growing, odors are reduced, lower air conditioning cost, upstairs is dryer.

This family in Palmer, MA reached out to us because they had water in their basement. They had a sump pump, but it was not functioning properly, and 3/4 of the basement had water. 

In order to help this customer, we needed to install a sump pump and perimeter drainage system. We used our TripleSafe™ sump pump alongside our WaterGuard™ perimeter drainage system. This sump pump features three pumps! The first pump is a 1/3 hp, cast iron Zoeller pump that can pump up to 2200 gallons per hour, 8 feet high. Should the first pump fail or not be able to keep up with the temporary heavy flow of water, a 1/2 hp AC back-up pump on a separate discharge line can pump 3900 gallons of water per hour. If the power fails, then a third, battery operated "UltraSump" pump automatically pumps up to 12,000 gallons of water out of the basement. Now, the homeowners will have peace of mind, knowing that they have three pumps keeping their basement dry! 

This homeowner in Webster, MA reached out to us due to drafts in his home. When our Home Comfort Specialist came out to the home, he found that it was very humid in the crawl space, and they had a water issue. Their old sump pumps were not keeping up with the water.
