Expert Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair in Denton, NC

A homeowner in Denton, NC reached out to Carolina Basement Systems with concerns regarding her foundation. Water had been seeping inside of her basement via the foundation walls and a side of her home was sinking. Wet soils are the most common reason for a foundation to shift and have issues. Foundation problems are serious and require quick attention, as they only get worse and more expensive over time. Good thing this homeowner contacted the local foundation experts!
One of our knowledgeable inspectors went out to perform a free, no obligation quote and inspection. After he completed a thorough investigation of the area, he then sat down with the homeowner to educate her on what was happening to her foundation, why this occurs, and what solutions are available. After a plan of action was agreed upon, one of our expert crews got to work. They permanently stabilized the sinking foundation by installing helical piers. These galvanized steel piers are screwed into the ground and transfer the weight of the home to load bearing soil. Not only do they provide immediate and permanent stabilization, but they also were able to lift the sunken area of the home back to its original position. Next, to protect the basement from water damage, the crew sealed the walls with our CleanSpace vapor barrier, installed WaterGuard, our interior subfloor drainage system, and added the TripleSafe sump pump system to ensure that flooding is never a worry. Water doesn't stand a chance against this basement now!

Merrill from Denton, NC contacted Carolina Basement Systems after noticing how hot and cold her crawlspace would get during the summer and winter seasons. A crawlspace that isn't insulated or sealed can cause a house many issues! Damp soils seep through causing musty smells and high humidity, which creates a breeding ground for pests, allergens, mold, and more. On top of that, an exposed crawlspace can hike up your energy bill from the constant draft of outside air seeping through. Here at CBS, we don't want your health or your house to suffer, so our team went straight to work.

First, we insulated the area with our highly efficient SilveGlo graphite-impregnated insulation. This system is made up of inorganic and waterproof materials that act as a vapor barrier on the walls. Next, our team added a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier and condensation pump to keep humidity levels safe and to properly discharge of any water collected. Our top-of-the-line dehumidifier will prevent mold and reduce nasty odors. A CleanSpace crawlspace encapsulation system with drainage matting under the liner is added to permanently prevent moisture, outside air, and pests from intruding this crawlspace. After our experts sealed all vents and cleaned up work debris, the mission was complete!

The pool deck in the back yard of this home started to crack and sink. Erosion around the base of the pool and soaked up water from general use were the main influencers in these problems.

To fix the cracks and stabilize the pool deck, we lifted the slab with PolyLevel and filled the void which was forming underneath the concrete. Then, we sealed the cracks with NexusPro. This held together the separating slabs and waterproofed the cracks to help resist future erosion.

The job was completed without a hitch and the pool deck was restored and protected from future ailments. The homeowner was happy with work and was happy to not have to worry about the degrading pool deck anymore.
