We put in a new liner, submersible pump and back-up system in this home.
Lambton County can get a lot of rain! Having a reliable sump system and a good back-up is important. Our battery back-up uses a specialized battery, designed for this specific use.
Great install Kevin, Arron and Jordan!
Radon Gas is an invisible, odorless, radioactive gas in soil and rocks created as uranium decays overtime. The gas will travel through the dirt and seek any openings in the lower levels of the home. Obvious openings are sump pits without sealed lids, cracks in the floor or having an exposed dirt floor crawlspace.
Advanced Basement Systems is a certified Radon Gas Mitigation expert and will design a system to reduce radon entering your home. The system will require the basement to be sealed from the earth which includes the sump pump lid. In this case, the existing pit was used with a sealed lid installed along with the Radon venting system.
Get your home tested to see if you require Radon Gas protection. Give Advanced Basement Systems a call to find out more.
Problem: The homeowner required improved access to their crawl space.
Solution: We installed a steel window well, as part of the crawl space access is below grade and added an EverLast crawl space access door which seals tightly for an ideal crawl space environment.

Problem: These homeowners had an old sump pump system and pit which was open, creating a humid environment in the home. They were also experiencing some drainage problems and cracks in their basement floor.
Solution: We successfully installed a new SuperSump+™ Sump Pump System. We moved the location of their sump pump, filled in the old pit, filled the floor cracks, and improved their drainage system.

The home was built with block walls, a poured concrete floor with a round sump pit. The pit included a pedestal sump pump and no lid to seal it. Over time the walls developed seepage as shown and the basement felt damp.
Advanced Basement Systems installed their Water Guard basement drainage with a vapour barrier to take care of the water vapour on the walls. The owner elected to use the existing sump pit with a new pump, sealed lid and battery back-up from us. The sump is now sealed as it should be, so the basement will have a chance to dry out!
