Triple Protection - TripleSafe Sump System installed in Wilmington, DE
This customer had lived in her 80 year old home for 20 years. Her basement periodically got wet during heavy rains, but during one particularly bad storm, so much water poured in, that after a short time, it was high enough to cover her ankles. Our inspector went out and found that only one wall was leaking, so the installation of 20 feet of WaterGuard was enough to keep the water from coming in. This basement had no sump pump, so we needed to install one. Not wanting to ever experience another flooded basement, our customer had us install a TripleSafe Sump System with battery back-up. As the name implies, the Triple Safe has three pumps. Pump 1 does the majority of the pumping. Pump 2 kicks in if Pump 1 is unable to keep up during a severe storm; and Pump 3 is the UltraSump Battery Back-up system. If you lose power, the UltraSump’s 120 amp power pack, when fully charged, can pump a total of 12,000 gallons of water, at 2,018 gallons per hour. Barring a severe storm that leaves you without power for more than a few days, the UltraSump should get you through until power is restored and the battery can begin to charge again.

Basement Waterproofing and Concrete Repair in Wilmington DE
Customer reached out to us with concerns of water coming in through the wall and sometimes up through the floor whenever there was a heavy rain storm in the area. We came out to the property to install a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, Waterguard, TripleSafe Sump Pump and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. Once those items were installed and the basement was now protected from any water intrusion, the customer had us assess and re pour the concrete floor. As you will see in the "Before" picture, the state of the customers current floor, was not the best condition, it was cracked all throughout and even parts of the concrete had chipped away causing deep and wide cracks and uneven floors. We ended up breaking up and hauling away the old concrete floor and then pouring a new one. Now the customer has an even floor and a dry, bright and clean basement!
Waterproofing System in Wilmington, DE
Our team assisted this homeowner by waterproofing the back end of his basement to prevent any water intrusion in the future! Our WaterGuard drainage system was installed along the footer, as well as our CleanSpace vapor barrier lining the walls. Our TripleSafe sump pump was also installed, and connected to the newly-installed drainage system.
Basement Window Replacement in Wilmington, DE
This basement's original windows were installed back in the 1960s. Water often leaked through them, and cold air came through. They needed a replacement! Our team installed our EverLast egress windows to upgrade the old ones.
A Warm New Space with a Gravity-Defying Toilet!? - Wilmington, DE
This customer got a finished space featuring our waterproof and mold resistant products: Mill Creek flooring, Everlast Wall System, and a dropped ceiling. We installed a lovely full bathroom, but since the bathroom sits below the level of the main sewer line, and drainage depends on gravity, we also installed a sewer ejection system. (Don't worry! We hid it under the floor in the linen closet. Out of sight, out of mind!) Electric baseboard heat was added to keep the space toasty warm, and a new SaniDry XP Air System handles any moisture in the air and leaves the basement with fresh, filtered air. A wonderful place to hibernate this Winter!
