Quality Basement Waterproofing, Crawl Space Repair, & Foundation Contractor for Glen Burnie, MD

At Basement Systems, we recently had the opportunity to assist a homeowner in Glen Burnie, MD, who was facing a significant issue with their home. During a routine home inspection, it was discovered that their dirt floor crawlspace was harboring water, a situation that understandably caused the homeowner concern. The inspection report recommended encapsulation to address the problem, and that's where our team came into the picture. Upon receiving the homeowner's call, our Customer Care team promptly scheduled a home inspection appointment. Our Systems Design Specialist visited the home, assessed the condition of the crawlspace, and confirmed that encapsulation was the right solution. We recommended our CleanSpace encapsulation system, a durable and effective solution for turning problematic crawlspaces into dry, usable spaces. Our production team, consisting of a foreman and skilled installers, got to work. They began by carefully preparing the crawlspace, then installed the CleanSpace system. This involved laying down a heavy-duty liner that not only acts as a barrier to moisture and water but also drastically improves the overall air quality throughout the home. 

When a Glen Burnie, MD, homeowner reached out to us at Basement Systems, they were facing a chilly and damp problem. Despite owning an unfinished basement equipped with three sump pumps and a dehumidifier, they couldn't shake off the feeling of humidity downstairs, nor the cold seeping through the floor joists above. Their sump pumps were overwhelmed, and the dehumidifier just couldn't keep up. Our approach kicked off with a conversation with the homeowner, helping us understand their concerns in-depth. This led to an appointment where one of our System Design Specialists paid their basement a thorough visit. The inspection unfolded the critical need for a more robust waterproofing solution and better air control machines to tackle the damp and cold ailments besieging this home's basement. Our recommendation? An installation of our state-of-the-art SuperSump pump system to handle high water intrusion effectively and the SaniDry Sedona - a powerful, yet energy-efficient, dehumidifier designed to maintain dry, healthier air. These products were selected to turn the tide against the water encroaches and inadequate humidity control they battled against. Additionally, to improve insulation and further combat the cold, we installed our ThermalDry wall system around the basement walls. This system not only enhances energy efficiency but also helps to create a warmer, more comfortable basement environment. Following the homeowner's green light, our seasoned production team efficiently swung into action. They swapped the exhausted pumps with the SuperSump system that offers superb durability and reliability. Next, the SaniDry Sedona took its place to combat moisture and maintain a stable, healthy basement environment.
