This is a night and day difference in this basement! Proper water proofing and brightwall installation will make all the difference in functionality and comfort for these homeowners. Not to mention the fact that water was clearly damaging the integrity of this home before Team DryZone arrived on the scene!
Wet basements are no fun. This basement had a majoy sump pump upgrade from this wimpy pump laid in a hole with no protection from the soil to this Triple Safe pump with battery backup. These homeowners now have a powerful sump pump which sits on a stand which will protect against system blockage. The battery backup gives them peace of mind during a power outage as well!
Crawlspace entrances are usually very small and hard to get in to. The metal shrouds and doors will rust and the open bottom lets in ground water. The Turtl is a great addition to any crawlspace. It is made of solid, heavy duty plastic and will never rot, mold, or rust. It has a solid bottom so that no ground water will come up from underneath. My favorite part is that you can easily get in and out of the crawlspace after installing a Turtl. This makes it infinitely better when replacing ducts or a well pump or any other equipment under your home.
This Wicomico County home had all kinds of problems. This insulation was hanging from moisture and the ground was very wet. The whole environment was like a swamp. DryZone went in and pulled out the nasty insulation and cleaned the space. After the prep work, the crews installed the heavy duty CleanSpace vapor barrier and a SaniDry dehumidifier (not shown). This crawl space is now ready to dry out and stay that way. In the near future the homeowner can expect to notice better smells, warmer floors, and a healthier home.
Most older homes that have sump pumps installed in the basement need updated equipment. The old pumps are either broken or aren't strong enough. Many times the hole itself isn't large enough and actually contributes to the sump pump getting over used. DryZone uses a much larger sump pit than the average home currently has. The container is sealed so the smells and water vapor won't escape. Since the container is bigger, the pump takes longer to turn on and pumps out more water in one cycle. Short cycling, when the pump turns on and off in a small amount of time, will destroy a sump pump.
