Challenge

A homeowner in Sayreville, NJ, was facing recurring dampness in their unfinished basement. Despite previously applying a dry-lock coating, moisture continued to seep through the walls and collect on the floor, causing the paint to bubble and peel. The persistent dampness not only created a cold and uncomfortable environment but also raised concerns about potential mold growth, poor air quality, and long-term structural damage.

The homeowner knew they needed a comprehensive waterproofing system, not just another quick fix. They wanted a solution that would stop water intrusion, manage humidity levels, and transform the basement into a cleaner, healthier space.

Solution

Our team designed a custom waterproofing and moisture control system to directly address the homeowner’s concerns. First, we installed our WaterGuard perimeter drainage system to capture water at the base of the walls and channel it efficiently out of the home. This was paired with a SuperSump pump system, ensuring that even during heavy rains, water would be pumped away quickly and reliably.

To tackle the damp air and prevent mold, we installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, one of the most powerful and energy-efficient systems available. This unit keeps humidity at safe levels year-round, ensuring the space stays dry and healthy. Lastly, we lined the basement walls with CleanSpace, a heavy-duty vapor barrier that locks out moisture while also brightening the unfinished space with a clean, polished look.

The result is a dry, protected basement with strong defenses against water intrusion and humidity. The homeowner can now rest easy knowing their basement will remain safe from damage, healthier for their family, and ready for future use.
