Before & After Photos

This Stamford home had windows that were clearly insufficient. The windows could not let in any light because of the overgrown grass. Not only did the basement lack natural light, but it also let in a lot of moisture and air that made the area uncomfortable. The homeowner wanted a solution so he decided to call Connecticut Basement System.  

The solution for this basement was to install EverLast windows paired with a SunHouse window well. The EverLast window has a durable vinyl frame that will not rust, rot, corrode, or need to be repainted. These windows will also prevent heat loss with its Low-E double-paned glass panes. Basement windows are usually located below ground just like this Stamford one. Dirt, debris, water, pests and even plants that take root in the well’s dirt floor would block the beautiful new EverLast window. A SunHouse window well was installed to prevent any disturbances and will also let in lots of sunlight into the basement with the well’s light color and curved form. 

The difference is incredible and the homeowner was very happy with the results. Now, his basement is more comfortable and the area is brighter and more inviting! 

Wall restoration job completed in Stamford, CT.  These new basement walls are essential to a complete basement finishing job. 

To keep water out of this basement, our team installed CleanSpace on the walls, WaterGuard around the perimeter of the space, and a SaniDry to get the excess water out of the air. 

When we arrived at this Stamford, CT basement, the existing sump pump was an open basin that allowed moisture to evaporate back into the room. Our team installed the SuperSump sump pump system in its place. Aside from having an airtight lid, the SuperSump boasts a cast-iron Zoeller 1/3 hp sump pump, which can pump up to 2280 gallons per hour out of the basement. Now this basement will remain dry for years to come!

Water used to seep through the bottom of the walls in this Stamford basement. To stop this water from entering the home, our team installed the CleanSpace vapor barrier on the lower half of the basement walls. The CleanSpace stops all water and water vapor from entering the house, and instead redirects it to the Waterguard drainage system. The owners of this home no longer have to worry about a wet basement!
