Before & After

A homeowner in Delmar, NY contacted us looking to turn her basement into a clean dry space that she could use as an office and library. One of our basement finishing specialists met with the homeowner and went over all of the possible options she had to make the space her own. The homeowner decided on our ThermalDry flooring, CleanSpace vapor barrier, Zen Wall, Sanidry Sedona, and EverLast Windows.
She chose ThermalDry Sandstone tile for the flooring- a product that is inorganic and protects from moisture/mold and a cold basement floor. CleanSpace vapor barrier was used to protect the walls from moisture and mold. Zen Wall was used in some areas to help insulate the walls and provide a clean look. The Sedona was installed to control humidity levels and remove any excess moisture from the space while filtering the air. Lastly, the EverLast Windows provided new clean windows that would help with heat loss and prevent water seepage, bugs and the like from entering the basement.
This particular job called us with concerns of water leaking into her basement after heavy rainstorms. In the before photo, you can see just how much this rain was really affecting the basement, causing the wall and floor to look dirty. We installed our WaterGuard drainage system, along with our TripleSafe Sump Pump System. This system keeps your basement dry with three levels of protection, in case the water ever rises past the first main pump, or if your power ever goes out. Your basement won't flood with this system put into place. Now, she can put her stuff back into the basement again without having them getting wet.
This Delmar Basement had a lot of pipes and tanks to work through, but our team was able to seamlessly install CleanSpace to keep things dry!
This old basement had a pre-existing sump pump and dehumidifier, but they both needed some serious overhaul in order to provide this basement with better protection from invading water and moisture. Our SinglePack sump pump and SaniDry dehumidifier are both top of their class for what they do and a great choice to improve your home’s waterproofing system. Each are products you can depend on to keep your home clean and healthy!
