Elinor in Onalaska, WI had water leaking into her basement. She was concerned about the damage that the water was causing and interested in our French drain products, so she called us for a free estimate. One of our Design Specialists went to her home to inspect her basement and design a solution. We recommended that she have our full perimeter WaterGuard system installed to ensure that her basement would be permanently waterproofed. Elinor liked the proposal that we presented to her, so she scheduled the installation.
Our production team started the installation by removing the concrete around the perimeter of the basement. Then, they laid the WaterGuard drainage system and connected it to her existing sump pump. The drainage system now properly guides water to the sump pump, and from there the water is expelled from the home. Now Elinor wil be able to enjoy a dry basement for many years to come. She is glad she chose to invest in the protection of her home.

A homeowner from Onalaska, WI, had heard lots of his friends and neighbors talk about having their home tested for radon gas. The homeowner didn't know much about the dangers of radon gas but decided to educate himself on the topic. After finding out that radon is a radioactive gas released during the breakdown of soil around a home's foundation, he decided it might be in his best interest to consider having his home tested. One day he saw one of our print ads in a local shopper, informing him that we offer radon testing and mitigation. He called the next day and scheduled his FREE estimate. Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Nate B, was headed out to the home. When Nate arrived, he began the inspection by placing a continuous radon monitoring test in the lowest level of the home. This test works to gauge and record radon levels in the home for 48 hours, delivering average radon levels when the test is complete. After Nate finished the rest of his walkthrough, he met with the homeowner to go over his recommendations. Nate began by saying that if the levels in the home returned higher than 4 pCi/L, he would recommend installing a radon mitigation system. A typical radon mitigation system consists of a large-diameter plastic pipe that connects the air beneath your foundation to the outdoors. An in-line fan sucks radon-rich air from beneath your foundation and expels this hazardous air to the exterior. Instead of entering your basement or other living space area through numerous gaps and cracks in the foundation, radon gas is extracted from beneath your foundation before it can permeate into interior space. When installed by an experienced radon mitigation specialist, a radon mitigation system will lower the concentration of radon gas in your interior air to the minimal levels recommended by the EPA and other health and safety agencies. The homeowner was impressed with Nate's approach, and the two decided to touch base once the results of the test were back. 48 hours later, Nate returned to the home to read the results, which returned much higher than the EPA's recommended 4 pCi/L. The two then worked to find the best day for the project to be installed.
A month or so later, our Foreman, Geno M, and his Co-Foreman, Gus R, were headed out to the home to install the system. When they finished the project, our customer was thrilled to know that he was one step closer to fresh air circulating his home!
