The bottom third of this drywall became soaked with moisture and started to grow must. When we gave a free quote to the homeowners, we showed them our EverLast drywall repair system, which is perfect for occasions like this. You see, in order to install our waterproofing system we have to cut the drywall to be able to install our WaterGuard subfloor drains. When we cut them, we can replace them with our waterproof Everlast panels, which look great. You won't have to worry about them growing musty smells or getting damaged from water thanks to their vinyl composition. They come in neutral colors and are washable, making for the perfect drywall replacement system.
The owner of this home had been living there five years when they gave us a call. They were concerned about humidity issues, as well as having to replace their furnace filter every year. You see, this dirt floor in the basement was throwing dirt and dust around everywhere, and then the furnace would throw the dirt all around the upper levels of the home. The high humidity levels were also making the furnace work twice as hard, as it's way more difficult to heat and cool humid air versus dry air. We got the job done by waterproofing the whole basement with a CleanSpace vapor barrier, drainage matting, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, and a SuperSump sump pump.
This foundation in Trenton, OH, was leaking like crazy before we installed a new waterproofing system in the basement. The foundation was made of stone, and while stone foundations are known to be very sturdy, they are also known to leak through the mortar. After installing our french drains beneath the floor, installing a sump pump and a dehumdifier, and wrapping the stone foundation with our vapor barrier, the musty smells immediately waned off. The homeowner was very happy with the overall outcome of the project.
On top of installing a full waterproofing system for this basement in Newport, Kentucky, we also installed our moisture barrier. Our CleanSpace vapor barrier is our most economical wall option, but comes with some great benefits. For one, it can channel water leaks coming from the wall into the subfloor drainage system. Secondly, it helps control the musty smells in basements, and will never grow mold thanks to its inorganic nature. Lastly, it is easily installed and looks beautiful!
This foundation was 100 years old, made of stone, and had no sump pump. Concerned with moisture issues, the owner of this home in Fort Thomas, KY, decided to give us a call to learn more about our system. After explaining to them about our interior perimeter waterproofing system, we then told them about our CleanSpace wall system. We like to recommend our CleanSpace vapor barrier system for old stone foundations, (and for other types of foundations) for a of couple reasons; Firstly, this vapor barrier is able to conform to uneven stone surfaces due to its flexible nature. Secondly, CleanSpace fits right into our subfloor drainage system - allowing the walls to channel leaks straight down into the drains we install underneath the floor slab. Last but not least, the walls look great, are super durable, and they are made of a patented formula that won't allow mold growth. This waterproofing system will help conserve this homes beautiful stone foundation for years to come.
