Basement Systems USA Before & After Photos

This main support beam running in this basement was in need of some supports itself. We had the perfect solution for this problem, SmartJacks! SmartJacks are high capacity adjustable steel piers, designed to stop settling and even raise your floor back up to where it was. 

This old, cold, and leaking window needed to be replaced, so we installed an all-vinyl, energy efficient EverLast Basement Window. These windows are airtight but easy to open. When unlocked, both panes can be removed for cleaning or for passing objects through – like a ladder or another item you’d rather not carry through your house. 

We also installed a WellDuct window well drain in the window well outside. This drain is connected into the interior WaterGuard system to prevent window well flooding. We also wanted to prevent vapor transmission through the walls, so the ThermalDry Wall vapor barrier was installed. Not only does ThermalDry Wall help to lower relative humidity, it has a radiant shield which reflects up to 97% of the heat back into the basement.  

These are before and after pictures of a church that had such a bad moisture problem in their crawlspace that rot destroyed the floor.  The whole floor had to be removed, but before replacing it, the owners were smart enough to call Basement Systems USA to install a new CleanSpace system, complete with a SuperSump and SaniDry Dehumidifier so the new floor would be protected. 

These are pictures of a typical city row home basement entry. The stairwells often flood because the drain is not big enough or not connected properly for an outlet.  By installing proper drainage and a large TrenchDrain, the water can now be easily managed.

This Baltimore MD customer reached out to us because of water intrusion in her basement. Whenever the area would receive a hard rain, she would notice water coming in through the basement wall. Our inspector Jim Logue was sent to the house to evaluate and it was determined the best case of action would be to install our BrightWall Panels and also replace their current sump pump with our SuperSump Pump. 

BrightWall is 100% waterproof and will never discolor or rot. BrightWall will stop water vapor from penetrating through your basement wall all while providing a bright clean, semi finished look. BrightWall is also durable and washable. 

The SuperSump Pump includes a 1/3HP Zoeller cast iron pump with a mechanical float switch, a WaterWatch Alarm System that will sound off if water rises above point where pump should turn on, a SuperLiner that is heavy duty and has 96 holes that allow water to flow in directly from below the floor and it includes an Airtight Lid that keeps moisture from evaporating in to your basement, the lid also keeps items from falling in to the sump pit and keeps out bugs, odors and radon gases.
