Water coming into the basement is an issue. This homeowner had recently cleared out there basement to allow their kids to use the space for activates when it was to wet outside. But, with the floorspace open, they now became aware that if it rained outside, it also became to wet here to play. The owners called up John's Waterproofing and had their free inspection scheduled. We sent out a design specialist to do their free inspection, afterwards working with the owners to craft a solution to fit the home.
To begin waterproofing the space, we created a trench around the interior perimeter of the basement, laying in gravel and WaterGuard. This system collects groundwater and channels it to the lowest point in the basement, from here water is carried away from the home by a TripleSafe sump pump. The WaterGuard drain system has inspection ports installed regularly to allow for easy maintenance, the rest being covered up. Along the walls we than installed our CleanSpace wall system. This is a 20 Mil thick woven vapor barrier, allowing moisture to safely move down the walls into the drain system to be addressed. The final step for this home was a SaniDry dehumidifier to maintain a healthy relative humidity in the space year round. We had our electrical division install dedicated outlets for the machines here, and the project is all done. Now the owners of the home can safely use this space for their rainy day needs.
This home's old 6 Mil vapor barrier had mud caked on it. To clean it up and help it last we installed a drainage system and installed a new 6 Mil vapor barrier to protect this home.
The homeowners heating and cooling bills were steadily rising, they soon found out that this was in large, due to their crawlspace being uninsulated, and open to the elements. After a full crawlspace encapsulation, they could feel the difference it made!
This crawlspace was a nightmare. Between the water and falling insulation, the entire space was cold and sending drafty air up through the floor boards constantly. Our team came and removed all of the debris and installed our patented clean space along with Silverglo wall insulation. Since then the homeowners have experienced greater heating and cooling efficiency and no more cold spots.
This crawlspace had caked on mud, falling insulation, and was in disrepair. To address this we did a full encapsulation, making this a dry and healthy home once again.
