When he cleaned up the mess from the flood, he saw signs of high humidity starting to show on his wooden floorboards.

Every heavy rainfall turned this Houston, DE home into a flood zone. This homeowner knew she needed better drainage and a sump pump that could take on heavy rainfall. After a free inspection, DryZone knew her home would be the best fit for a WaterGuard trench drain that would collect water from the basement and any groundwater. This drainage system leads to a TripleSafe sump pump that has a battery backup in case of a power outage in a storm. With added CleanSpace on the perimeter of the basement ready to collect any water that enters, this home is ready for any upcoming storm!

This homeowner called us looking to have their crawlspace revamped so that it could stay dry. After taking a look, out team suggested that we install cleanspace and with drainage matting to ensure that moving forward, their crawlspace would not only be free of water but also free of pests.

This homeowner is a previous customer of ours. We had originally gone out and installed WaterGuard within their basement, but after further inspection it needed to be redone. They are planning to finish their basement and before they start that project they want to be 100% certain that the water issues are fixed and will not return.    What makes this job a little trickier than others is that the builder of the home made the basement too deep for their location. The homeowners know that because of this, water will always get into the basement but want to have a system in place to ensure it does no damage.     

In Magnolia, DE the front porch of this home is sinking. The problem is continuing to grow worse and the homeowners want a solution right away.

Who would have thought this would happen?? Our house isn't that old!  Many homeowners say these things when they notice their concrete shifting and becoming uneven on their property. Over time, what was once level and strong weakens and fails, but why? Concrete is strong and durable and is used from airport runways to the sidewalks in front of your home. But eventually, concrete can crack and settle. Sometimes, the soil below your slabs is poorly compacted, other times it is too dry or wet. Your weather, type of soil in your location, and how the concrete slab site was prepared all affect your concrete slabs on your property.  Concerned about your concrete? Call us to schedule an appointment, which includes a free estimate!
