Atlanta Basement Systems Before & After Photos

In this home, majority of the basement is finished but there is a section of the basement that is unfinished that the owner uses as a garage. Unfortunately, water was getting in through the walls in the unfinished section and causing some water damage. Concerned about the water spreading to the damage section of the basement, the homeowner wanted to get the basement waterproofed.

The components for waterproofing this basement included installing a drainage system, a sump pump, and a vapor barrier to protect the walls. For the drainage system, Ken and his crew installed the WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system to collect any water seepage that may come from the floors or wall. Then that water can be pumped out by the TripleSafe pump system. Ken also installed IceGuard and LawnScape to keep the system from getting frozen or clogged. The finishing touch was the CleanSpace vapor barrier which protects and prevents moisture from getting into the basement and causing any problems.

Our crew treated the crawl space with mold cleaner, sealed the vents and rim joists, installed an interior perimeter drainage system, CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, and a crawl space dehumidifier. With these products, the homeowner won't have to worry about moisture and mold in their crawl space again. 

Notice the noticeable transformation in the photos taken at The Rock. Initially, mold flourished in a damp, unsealed crawl space, compromising air quality and structural integrity. Our solution effectively addressed this issue by installing the CleanSpace encapsulation system, SilverGlo wall insulation, and the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. These components together brought about a dry, mold-free crawl space, enhancing the home's durability and energy efficiency. Our suite of high-performance solutions not only promotes a healthier indoor environment but also delivers enduring protection against moisture-related challenges.

The presence of standing water in the crawl space may lead to mold and mildew growth, wood rot, structural damage, and health issues. That's why we installed EZ-Flow crawl space drainage pipe and CleanSpace vapor barrier for this customer. Ground water seepage led to a high moisture level in the crawl space which caused the growth of mold and mildew. The EZ-Flow pipe will divert the water away from the crawl space, while the CleanSpace vapor barrier will prevent moisture from entering the crawl space and promote a dry environment, reducing the risk of wood rot and structural damage, as well as potential health issues.

This customer was dealing with un-level concrete on his pool deck, and walkway to his home. He gave us at Atlanta Basement Systems a call, and asked us to send out a sales representative to give an inspection to determine what could be done to fix this problem he was having. After the sales rep completed his inspection, he determined that PolyLevel was going to be the best way to fix this. PolyLevel is a high-density, light-weight foam that is made of structural grade polymers. PolyLevel is injected into the concrete through small holes that are drilled. The PolyLevel then expands and lifts the concrete to the desired height, without adding any weight. It is water and wash-out proof, and will not ruin the natural expansion and contraction of the concrete. This customer was pleased with the results of this job.
