Tired of a cold, damp crawl space that wasted energy and threatened their home’s comfort, this homeowner from Middle River, MD took action with a complete waterproofing and insulation solution. They installed a vent cover to keep moisture out, added SilverGlo insulation to boost energy efficiency, and finished with CleanSpace to create a sealed, dry barrier. The result is a crawl space that stays dry, warm, and protected from mold, improving the home’s comfort, air quality, and energy bills all at once.
Waterproofing job in Upper Falls, MD consisted of 2 Sunhouse Basement Window Enclosures, Well duct, Waterguard, SuperSump Pump, and an Ultra Pump battery backup.
The Well duct will direct any water that may come in through the window down to the waterguard, where water will flow through the waterguard and over to the SuperSump to be pumped out of the basement.
In Upper Falls, MD, a homeowner reached out to us, concerned about water seeping into their basement. During heavy rainfalls, the basement floor became wet, and they were worried about potential damage to their property. To address this, we implemented our tried-and-tested waterproofing system. We began with the installation of WaterGuard, our sub-floor perimeter drainage system, specifically designed to capture wall and floor seepage before it reaches the basement floor. WaterGuard was discreetly placed below the surface, safeguarding the space without disrupting its aesthetic. Complementing this, we installed the SuperSump system, a reliable solution designed to handle substantial water volumes and alert the homeowner if water levels ever rise unexpectedly.
This basement had a bowing wall, causing cracking and separation of the block. We installed the PowerBrace wall stabilization system to permanently stabilize this home's foundation wall. It comes with a 25-year warranty against further bowing, tipping or shearing. In addition, this system has the ability to be tightened periodically over time, putting reverse pressure on the bowing wall, which helps to straighten it. We also installed ThermalWall vapor barrier to keep moisture out and the warm air in.
In this basement, the bottom of the moldy paneling was removed so that we could install WaterGuard and do mold remediation with Moldx2. After the repairs were made, we installed the inorganic TBF Everlast wall system, which is guaranteed for 50 years against Mold or water damage.
