Basement Waterproofing System in Philadelphia, PA

In the heart of Philadelphia, nestled in a vibrant neighborhood, one homeowner took a proactive step towards maintaining their home. Recognizing the potential challenges that an unfinished basement might face, especially in terms of water damage, they reached out to us at Basement Systems for a solution before any problem could arise. Upon receiving the call, we scheduled a timely visit to the property. One of our expert System Design Specialists conducted a thorough inspection of the basement. Despite the absence of active water issues, the need for a robust waterproofing system was evident to shield the area from future moisture-related threats. To achieve this, we proposed the installation of our proven WaterGuard drainage system and the TripleSafe Sump Pump - two of our trusted products. The WaterGuard system was designed to discretely sit along the perimeter of the basement, channeling any potential moisture or water breaches to our TripleSafe Sump Pump. The TripleSafe, true to its name, offers three levels of protection, ensuring the basement remains dry. Our dedicated production team got to work, installing the products efficiently and with minimal intrusion into the homeowner’s day-to-day life. 

Basement Waterproofing System in Philadelphia, PA

Winter had just begun setting in Philadelphia, PA, when a homeowner reached out to us with an all-too-familiar problem: every time it rained, water seeped into their finished basement where the floor meets the wall. Our Customer Care team swiftly scheduled a home inspection, paving the way for our System Design Specialist to take a closer look. They diagnosed the issue, recommending a solid, high-quality solution that included installing our WaterGuard system and a TripleSafe Sump Pump—the perfect duo for keeping basements dry. Our expert production team then was on-site, providing the much-needed solution. Installing the WaterGuard involved creating a drainage channel around the problem area, catching any water trying to sneak in and redirecting it to our TripleSafe Sump Pump. This pump system is the heart of our operation, pumping out any water far away from the basement. 

Basement Leak in Philadelphia, PA

A Philadelphia, PA homeowner recently contacted Basement Systems USA as water had started seeping into the unfinished side of the basement, so the homeowner removed the drywall to investigate. After assessing the situation, we identified that groundwater was likely entering through the foundation. Our team recommended a comprehensive solution to prevent future water intrusion and ensure the basement remains dry.

 

The primary solution involved installing the WaterGuard system, which is specifically designed for interior drainage. This system is set above the foundation footing, which helps keep it free from soil and debris, minimizing clogging risks. As the WaterGuard collects water from wall leaks and the floor-wall joint, it channels it directly to a sump pump. For this particular project, we selected the TripleSafe Sump Pump, which includes a backup system to maintain operation even during power outages, providing peace of mind for the homeowner. To further protect the basement, we also installed a CleanSpace wall vapor barrier. This durable barrier helps prevent moisture from seeping through the walls and redirects it into the drainage system, maintaining a dry environment in the basement.

 

 

This comprehensive approach not only addresses the immediate water issues but also offers long-term protection against potential future flooding. By combining the WaterGuard, TripleSafe sump pump, and CleanSpace system, we’ve created a robust defense that will help keep the Philadelphia home’s basement dry for years to come.

Philadelphia, PA Expended Basement Waterproofing

A homeowner in Philadelphia, PA, had previously invited Basement Systems USA to waterproof one section of their basement, which was showing signs of water intrusion. After installing our system, they found the area stayed completely dry and free of any moisture issues. Impressed by the success, they reached out to us again when another part of their basement began to show signs of water intrusion.

 

Upon inspection, we found water seepage along the walls and floor of the unprotected side. Our thorough assessment led us to recommend a combination of our WaterGuard system and CleanSpace Wall System. The WaterGuard system is essential because it sits discreetly below the floor surface and channels any incoming water directly to the sump pump, preventing it from entering the basement living space. The CleanSpace Wall System, on the other hand, acts as a moisture barrier along the walls. This system prevents any water vapor from making its way through the walls and instead directs it into the WaterGuard system, ensuring the basement remains dry and comfortable.

 

 

After the installation, the homeowner was very pleased with how well the systems blended into their space, noting how secure and dry the entire basement felt. They were delighted by the smooth process and the renewed peace of mind it brought.

Crawl Space Encapsulation in Philadelphia, PA

When one of our neighbors in Philadelphia found trace pollutants lurking in their crawl space during testing, it was a wake-up call emphasizing the importance of a secure and clean under home environment. Our approach kicked off with our customer care team setting up a detailed inspection of the home. A System Design Specialist from our Sales Team then visited the property, examining the crawl space's condition closely. The moisture level and the presence of pollutants indicated that merely addressing the immediate concern wasn't enough; a lasting solution was essential. It was here we proposed the combination of CleanSpace, SilverGlo, and SaniDry Sedona to transform the derelict area into a clean, dry, and energy-efficient space. CleanSpace liner was our first line of defense, providing a tough barrier against moisture and potential mold growth, instantly securing the crawl space from further pollutant intrusion. SilverGlo insulation panels were installed next, ensuring the area was well insulated, thereby promoting energy efficiency throughout the home. Lastly, the SaniDry Sedona system was installed, a powerful, yet energy-efficient dehumidification system keeping the area dry and sustaining a healthier air quality above. The transformation was staggering. Not only was the crawl space now clean and encapsulated, but the homeowner also noticed a significant difference in air quality and a decrease in energy costs.

When a homeowner from Philadelphia reached out to us with concerns about their sump pump running continuously even without rainfall and noticing water seeping through the basement floor, we were on the case. The existing sump system hadn't been serviced since 2008. Upon receiving the call, our Customer Care team swiftly set up a home inspection to unravel this mystery. Our expert System Design Specialist from the Sales Team took charge, conducting a thorough examination of the home’s basement and identifying the core of the disturbance. To address the water intrusion and to ensure future peace of mind for our homeowner, the deployment of SuperSump and UltraSump Systems was suggested. These systems were chosen not only for their proficiency in water management but for their robust design—ensuring that problems akin to ceaseless pump running and unexplained dampness become woes of the past. Our skilled production team, numbered with installers within, arrived on the scene and with precise coordination, began implementing the proposed solution. The installation of the SuperSump and UltraSump Systems unfolded cleanly, targeting that no uninitiated water made its rebelliously damp path into the peripheral of the basement.
