Before & After Photos

Everyone deserves a place of their own and often for most men this comes in the form of the mancave. And there is no better place for one than the basement with it's isolated location removing you from the chaos of the rest of the house. Us here at DryZone want to make sure that your basement is more than up to the task. To do this we will install flooding prevention in the form of a TripleSafe and WaterGuard which will keep your basement dry. Next we will install CleanSpace on the wall that prevents moisture from seeping through and brightness up your basement environment. 

When it comes to keeping your basement dry there is no better system than the TripleSafe Sump Pump system.  It is designed to be ready for every eventuality with it's backup battery in case of flooding and multiple pumps incase of failure. 

A homeowner in Dover was having water leak into their basement, which caused musty odors. To fix the problem, we installed the CleanSpace Wall System, a white poly liner that fully covers the basement foundation walls and helps keep the space dry and clean.

This home in Dover, DE had no sump pump system. DryZone was called out and installed a new sump pump system into the home. The home owners were very pleased with the new system in their home.

How many people have seen this kind of sump pump in a friend's basement? Or have you seen it in your own home? This set up is pretty typical in homes that around 20+ years old. Basically, the builder put a terracotta pipe (similar to a flower pot) in the ground before pouring the floor in the basement. It creates a small pit, usually about the size of a one foot cube. They they may or may not add a store bought pump in the hole. This may have been ok all those years ago, but the knowledge and technology have advanced since then. We now know that a larger sump pit with a sealed lid is the way to go. A larger pit means the pump itself doesn't run as often and that will keep it from burning up. A sealed lid keeps humidity in the pit instead of in the air where it can add to nasty smells in the basement. Also, in this particular home, the homeowner opted for a battery back-up sump pump. This a a great feature for anyone worried about pump failure, power outage, or any other problems related to your sump pump.
