Before & After Photos

Before

The homeowner called us due to high humidity in the basement. Inspection revealed an open sump pit system. Open sumps allow water to evaporate in the  space which increases the humidity levels throughout the home.

After:

Advanced Basement Systems installed their sump pump system which includes a sealed lid and rubber grommets to prevent water vapour in the basement. The lid has easy access for service. The homeowners included a Sani Dry Sedona Air System, which will allow the basement to remain dry all year.

Porblem: Cracks coming off windows in poured foundations are a headache. Most solutions harden over time, crack and then fail as the foundation goes through freeze/thaw cycles. 

Solution: Our solution stays flexible to move with the foundation. it allows the water to be controlled.

Problem:  The paving stones outside this basement were not properly graded and over time water was entering the basement through the window structure.

Solution: Our team installed a window well with improved drainage and means of egress. You can learn more about our basement window waterproofing by clicking here.

Very damp and musty – lots of mould. Small basement – treated as crawl space.

Advanced Basement Systems was contacted at a home show by the owner of the house. The home is older with a 5 foot high crawl space. The foundation walls are a combination of stone and brick built over a roughly finished concrete floor. Humidity levels were consistently high allowing mould and mildew to grow.

The solution to fix this area was a complete encapsulation. Clean Space membrane was used for the entire floor, along with 3” of spray foam on all exterior walls into the header space. This will seal any water or moisture from entering the interior. A complete drainage system of Waterguard was included on all exterior walls to divert any water to 2 sump pumps to remove the water seeping through the walls. Finally, a very efficient and high performing dehumidifier was added to keep the space dry all year long.

Advanced Basement Systems works with any homes in London, Chatham, Windsor, Sarnia and surrounding areas to fix basement water problems. If your home has constant mould and moisture in the lower levels give Advanced Basement Systems a call!
