Ryan Bond’s recommendation to use rough-casting for the foundation damaged areas and install a sump pump and french drain drainage system effectively addressed both the structural and moisture issues in the basement. This solution not only restored the stability and integrity of the basement walls but also prevented future water damage, offering the homeowner a cost-effective and lasting fix to their foundation problems. End results was a five star review !!!

After a thorough inspection, our team recommended installing a French drain ( GrateDrain ) along the perimeter of the basement to direct water away from the foundation, along with a sump pump ( GrateSump ) to efficiently pump out any water that might accumulate. Here’s how we approached the project: 1. French Drain Installation: We began by digging a trench along the affected area of the basement floor. A French drain was installed in the trench, featuring our GrateDrain system that allows water to flow into the drain, preventing it from pooling on the floor. The drain was then connected to a sump pit. 2. Grate Sump Pump Installation: A high-efficiency 1/3hp sump pump was installed in the sump pit, designed to pump any collected water out of the basement and away from the foundation. This ensures that the basement remains dry, even during heavy rains or high groundwater levels. 3. Sealing and Finishing Concrete : Once the drainage system was in place, we sealed any cracks or gaps in the basement walls to prevent further moisture infiltration. The area was then cleaned, leaving the homeowners with a dry, safe, and functional basement. Results: A Dry, Mold-Free Basement After the French drain and sump pump were installed, the homeowners immediately saw results .. Another Dry Basement !!!

This provides peace of mind, knowing that the basement will remain dry no matter what. 🔹 Patent Great Drain System: Our GreatDrain Perimeter Drainage System was installed around the entire basement to intercept and redirect water away from the foundation, preventing any water from entering the basement at the floor wall joint ! 🔹 ThermalShield Moisture Vapor Barrier: We applied our advanced Thermal Shield Moisture Vapor Barrier to the walls, which creates an impermeable seal against moisture while also improving energy efficiency and some insulation value to the foundation walls . 🔹 WiseAire 100 High-Efficiency Dehumidifier: To maintain optimal humidity levels ( below 55% ) we installed our WiseAire 100 High-Efficiency Dehumidifier. This energy-efficient system keeps the air in the basement dry, preventing mold growth and maintaining the long-term health of the space. 🔹 One Free Year of Maintenance: To ensure everything runs smoothly for years to come, we included one year of free annual maintenance.

Our Jamison team designed a solution that would address both the source of moisture and the need for better air quality in the home: 1. Crawl Space Cleanout: • To begin, we thoroughly cleaned out the crawl space, removing any debris, dirt, and organic material. This step was essential to prevent mold growth and provide a clean surface for the moisture barrier. 2. Installation of a Moisture Barrier: • We installed a high-quality moisture barrier across the entire crawl space floor and walls. This thick, durable liner acts as a waterproof seal, preventing moisture from the ground from seeping into the crawl space. • The barrier was carefully sealed at the seams and edges to ensure that no moisture could penetrate and cause future problems. 3. Vapor Barrier Encapsulation: • In addition to the floor, we encapsulated the entire crawl space with an airtight vapor barrier. This added layer of protection ensured that any moisture coming from outside the crawl space was blocked, significantly reducing humidity levels. 4. Dehumidification System: • To further control humidity, we installed an energy-efficient dehumidification system. This system actively removes excess moisture from the air, maintaining a consistent level of dryness and preventing mold and mildew growth. After completing the crawl space encapsulation, the homeowners experienced significant improvements in the homes air quality …
