Atlanta, MI Superior Foundation Repair & Basement Waterproofing

Atlanta, MI Basement is Kept Dry with WaterGuard and a TripleSafe

The signs of water damage are visible in this Atlanta, MI basement, as the first picture shows. Water had been seeping in through the concrete blocks of these foundation walls, and with nowhere for it to go, it remained along the bottom of the wall.

The solutions our team installed to address this issue were the WaterGuard system and a TripleSafe sump pump. WaterGuard is a sub-floor drainage system that sits on top of the footing, capturing water from any leaks and rerouting it to the sump pump. The TripleSafe sump pump is the only of its kind—with three sump pumps in one liner, it functions even if one pump can’t keep up. A sump pump like this works to effectively pump water caught by the WaterGuard system out of your basement, keeping it dry at all times.

Thanks to the CleanSpace System a Wet Atlanta, MI Crawlspace is Transformed

Don & Cheryl, homeowners from Atlanta, MI were experiencing the effects of a cold damp crawlspace below their home. The couple began seeing the formation of mold and their concern began to grow rapidly. Don searched online for crawlspace repair experts and almost immediately found us. Don & Cheryl read many reviews and felt confident calling us to provide them with solutions for their crawlspace. One afternoon, our appointment center received a call from the couple. They informed us of their desire to transform their crawlspace into dry, energy efficient space.

Upon going to Don & Cheryl’s home and assessing their crawlspace needs, we prescribed our CleanSpace crawlspace encapsulation system. The CleanSpace encapsulation product is a 20mm thick durable plastic lining that fully seals off the crawlspace from the harsh elements it faces below. Plus, the CleanSpace is made with anti-microbial properties that prevent mold growth, so our new friends can be confident their mold problem has been permanently solved. To supplement the CleanSpace, we also installed the CleanSpace drainage mat to ensure maximum water drainage to the already existing sump pump. Don & Cheryl also elected for us to install the SaniDry Sedona, a high-performance dehumidifier and filtration system. In our new friends’ crawlspace, the Sedona will help prevent moisture and reduce musty odors. Thanks to this crawlspace encapsulation system, Don & Cheryl can rest assured knowing their crawlspace is a mold-free and dry environment.

CleanSpace Helps Encapsulate Basement in Atlanta, MI

This homeowner has begun to notice some moisture build-up in their crawlspace. Nothing major yet, but even the smallest amount of water can turn into big problems. In order to fix this issue and avoid further problems in the future, we needed to encapsulate this crawlspace.

Inside the Basement Systems encapsulation system is the CleanSpace liner. This is a plastic sheet that is designed to permanently keep away any moisture and air. It is placed completely over the walls and floor, creating a constant blockage to anything outside of it.

Another problem that is common with crawlspaces is cold air. If cold air gets into your crawlspace, it will obviously make the crawlspace cold. Due to the stack effect however, that cold air will travel throughout your entire home, causing you to use more heat. Luckily, our SilverGlo insulation on the block walls helps reflect heat back into the home, making floors warmer and heating cost lower.

Not only will this homeowner have a healthy crawlspace, but their entire home will be able to maintain a healthy environment.
