Professional Basement Waterproofing and Crawl Space Repair in Ardsley, PA

The challenges we faced were working in a tight space, as the crawl space was small in height. There was also so much humidity down there that the floor joists were dripping with moisture.

To address this, after crawl space specialist Steve met with her, the solutions he provided were a full encapsulation system with a dehumidifier. We also closed up the open vents and installed a Grate Sump pump in the low spot for drainage. Before we were even done, you could see a big difference throughout the whole home as the humidity levels started to drop rapidly. Now that the crawl space is dry and free of groundwater seepage, the homeowner has gained around 2,000 square feet of dry usable space.

The challenge we faced was working in a small, tight basement.

To address this, we applied an epoxy coating to the block walls and installed a Santa-Fe system.

It was a unique situation because we went to meet the buyer’s realtor at the home, and the homeowners were there as well. Although they said it does not get water, signs all around the basement showed water seepage. After we removed the finished walls, we found that the whole bottom floor plate was rotted out.

To address this, we provided a full drainage system with a sump pump and outside drainage.

The challenge we faced was that we had to gut the entire basement because the water problem had been going on for a while, and mold was certainly growing behind the finished material, so we had to get down to the root of the problem.

To address this, Project Manager Steve provided a full GrateDrain drainage system with a full vapor barrier, along with complete encapsulation of the dirt crawl space. We even extended a downspout underground free of charge to get as much water away from the foundation as possible. The Walkers said they chose us over our competitors because we were the only company that was not pushy during the sales call. Now that the groundwater issues have been taken care of, they can refinish the space and add a new playroom for their children.

The challenge we faced was mold present on the basement walls.

To address this, we performed mold removal and installed a Santa-Fe system.

When we got there, there was a lot of mud and water on the floor, and half of the basement was finished, which made the job more challenging. Taking this into account, and because the homeowner wanted the problem solved as soon as possible, Steve arranged for a production crew to be out within a few days. We installed a drainage system with a full vapor barrier and a Grate Sump with a battery backup for 24-hour protection. We also extended the downspout 10 feet away from the home and washed the floor down. Now the basement is dry as a bone.

The challenge we faced was working in a very small and tight crawl space.

To address this, our Project Manager went out to inspect the problems the homeowners were having. After seeing the dirt crawl space, he knew immediately that it needed to be completely sealed off from the home to eliminate smells and reduce humidity. We encapsulated the entire crawl space and added a Santa-Fe Advance 2 to control moisture. As a result, the smells went away, and the homeowners now have a little more storage room in the crawl space.

The challenge we faced was that it was a rental property that had been empty for a few months, and the basement was also finished, which made the job more difficult.

To address this, we installed a drainage system with two new sump pumps and a Santa-Fe Advance 2.
