This owner reached out regarding a split-level home and the dirt crawl space with high moisture that was beginning to have a mildew smell. We installed our CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system, which lies on top of the CleanSpace Drainage Matting to prevent evaporation from the ground spoil up into the space. To prevent moisture related problems, by installing this system, the space will become clean, dry and a place where mold can't grow.
At this home on the bottom of the stairwell door would get water build up to the point of wood rot. To prevent any build-up, we installed our TrenchDrain sub-floor drainage system that effectively captures the surface water from the doorway, then it flows down to the sump system. The heavy-duty drain system is placed sub-level, preventing any tripping hazard, and it also has a grated cover that can be easily removed for cleaning, which prevents corrosion and moisture damage.
Water was continuing to find its way into this partially finished Newark, DE basement, even though the home already had a newer sump pump. With Bernie as foreman, our team installed CleanSpace along the walls and WaterGuard around the entire basement perimeter, working carefully through the existing finished rooms. We also replaced old, rusted windows with EverLast windows, creating a more comprehensive approach to protecting the basement from water intrusion.
These old basement windows in Newark, DE had definitely seen better days. Years of exposure had left the frames rusted and deteriorated, and the windows were allowing water to leak into the partially finished basement. As part of this waterproofing project, our team removed the old windows and replaced them with EverLast basement windows. Designed specifically for below-grade environments, EverLast windows provide a more durable solution for basement openings while helping protect against moisture and the elements.
These Newark, DE basement windows had deteriorated over time, with rust and leaks leaving the openings in need of an upgrade. Our team replaced the old windows with EverLast windows, giving the basement a cleaner, more durable window system designed for the unique conditions below grade. The new windows are built to better handle the moisture and exposure that basement windows experience, while giving these openings a much more finished appearance.
