Before

The owners found a crack in the poured concrete basement wall, which is a common occurrence. It does not pose as a structural issue but often times will lead to water leaks into the basement, causing a wet floor.  

After

Advanced Basement Systems installed their crack repair system called Flexispan. The system includes a urethane sealant in the crack, a drywell under the crack to drain the water and a polyurethane sealant on the wall to prevent water from leaking through. The entire system is flexible and will move with the wall as it moves over time during freeze / thaw cycles. 

Problem:  This home had a problem with flooding in the crawl space, creating wet, undesirable environment

Solution: An important element of a dry crawl space is a reliable sump pump system. Without one, a crawl space will still be vulnerable to groundwater, as well as unnoticed plumbing leaks. Our SmartSump system is designed for crawl spaces.

Problem:  This wet crawl space was causing problems for these homeowners in southwestern Ontario. The humid and moist environment caused their traditional fiberglass insulation to fall and become ineffective. Their entire home smelled musty as the odours from the crawl space affected their entire home.

Solution: We sealed off the outside environment which was causing the humid crawl space environment, encapsulating it with our heavy duty CleanSpace® Liner.

For improved comfort and better energy efficiency, we also used Spray Foam Insulation.

What a difference!

The house had an older sump system with small liner, 1/3 HP pump and a battery back-up system. When it rained hard the system could not keep up to the volume of water and resulted in basement flooding.

Advanced Basement Systems installed the Triple Safe System which includes a 1/3 HP primary pump, a ½ HP secondary pump and a battery back-up sump pump should the power go out. The pumps in this system are connected to 2 separate discharge lines to help prevent a single line blockage. This system will provide the coverage needed should the heavy rains come back year over year!

Call Advanced Basement Systems if your sump system is old and needs an update.
