Freeland Crawl Space Waterproofing

Eric and Jodi F. lived in their Freeland home for 10 years. After they moved to California and put their home on the market, it turned out their crawl space flooded during heavy winter rains. Concerned their home wouldn't sell in such a condition, they contacted Rainy Day Basement Systems to waterproof their crawl space so they could get their house back on the market. We installed drainage, a SmartSump Pump and installed a new vapor barrier.

This Freeland, WA crawl space had rotting foundation posts and pools of standing water all over the place.

We installed drainage trenching along the interior perimeter of the foundation walls to capture ground water seepage before it reaches the surface. The drainage directs the captured water to the TripleSafe Sump Pump we added. The TripleSafe is equipped with three pumps, including the UltraSump, a battery back-up system that will automatically activate in the event of a power outage or other type of pump failure.

We then encapsulated the crawl space with CleanSpace, a highly durable vapor barrier that greatly reduces moisture and humidity levels. To completely seal the space, CleanSpace Vent Covers and an EverLast Crawl Space door were. Both use weather stripping for an airtight seal and are made from completely inorganic materials that will never rust or grow mold. Lastly, we a SaniDry CX Dehumidifier was installed to give the homeowner ultimate control over the moisture levels in their crawl space.

This two story home in Freeland was built into a hill. The layout presents the home with a lovely daylight basement and below grade garage. Unfortunately, the design allowed for a great deal of water seepage to penetrate through the porous concrete walls from the moist crawl space on the other side. The homeowner was bothered by the musty smells that were omitting from her basement, but she was mostly concerned about the potential damage the moisture vapors could cause.

To ease this homeowner’s mind, we installed drainage trenching in the crawl space along the interior perimeter of the foundation walls to absorb the groundwater seepage prior to penetrating her basement walls. The seepage was directed towards the lowest point of the space where we put the SmartSump Pump. Once the ground water was controlled, we needed to prevent moisture vapor from causing damage to wooden floor joists and other organic materials in the space. We encapsulated her crawl space with CleanSpace, a highly effective vapor barrier. The lining is 20 ms thick and has an antimicrobial agent built-in to provide the best protection possible from moisture-related damages. Finally, a SaniDry XP Dehumidifier was installed to offer further moisture control to the homeowner.

Diane from Freeland found Rainy Day because her neighbor recommended us. Her existing sump pump was not doing a very good job of getting rid of water in her crawl space.

This included installing a drainage channel, vapor barrier, and TripleSafe sump pump. Our TripleSafe is able to reliably handle over 6200 gallons of water per hour and has a battery back up pump.

WaterGuard Drainage System in Wet Freeland, WA Basment

Steve always had problems with his Freeland, WA, basement getting wet during heavy rain. This caused rotting wood down there for as long as he could remember, and he was ready to find a way to control the water coming in for good. Our solution? WaterGuard. This interior basement drainage system is effective in capturing groundwater in leaky basements. The channel dissipates hydrostatic pressure and gives water a way to discharge without overwhelming the rest of the drainage system. Once the water is collected in the WaterGuard, it is automatically pumped outside through the sump pump and out an exterior line. Steve can now enjoy a dry basement during even the heaviest rains.

Waterproofing a Leaking Basement Wall in Freeland

Margaret C. contacted Rainy Day Basement Systems because she began noticing water seeping in on the Northwest wall of the daylight basement in her home. She had lived in her Freeland home for 21 years, during which time she never had any water seepage problems before. However, the wall was leaking frequently leading to pools of water on the floor. Concerned about her home, Margaret was searching for a long term solution.

To help prevent water from pooling in Margaret’s daylight basement, we lined the leaking Northwest wall with CleanSpace. CleanSpace is a highly durable antimicrobial lining made up of high and low density polyethylene and polyester cord. The CleanSpace will effectively reduce the amount of moisture vapor allowed from the wall. We also installed WaterGuard at the footing of the wall to capture the moisture seepage. It does this by using a special wall flange that creates a small space between the floor and the wall. When the WaterGuard is installed, it is separated from the soil by a layer of gravel. This helps filter the ground water that reaches the drainage trench and prevents clogging.

The WaterGuard leads to a SuperSump pump we installed at the lowest point of the basement. The SuperSump is equipped with a high-end 1/3 hp Zoeller cast iron pump with a mechanical float switch. It is capable of removing 2,650 gallons of water every hour, and it does so efficiently and quietly. The SuperSump also includes the WaterWatch alarm system. In the instance water rises above the point where the pump should turn on, the alarm will sound off, sounding similar to a fire alarm. Margaret also opted for the UltraSump, a backup battery pumping system that will automatically turn on if the primary pump fails to operate.

We are so happy we were able to help Margaret out with her daylight basement, and the peace of mind knowing her basement will be staying dry this upcoming winter.

Hello, We've lived in our home in Freeland for three years, but this is the first year that we have had water appear in our finished basement. It seems to have come up through the concrete foundation and has ruined several sections of the click hardwood flooring. I am looking to find out more about our options for keeping the space dry because our kids' bedrooms are down there and we like to use the space. Thank you for your time. I look forward to hearing from you.

House is near the water and has a musty smell. Crawl space has vapor barrier, but is wet under the barrier during certain tides. Wondering if crawl space encapsulation might help with the must smell. Looking for an estimate.

Have some moisture in my crawl space I need addressed so I can sell my home.
Project Location: Freeland, WA
Crawl space has moisture including some standing water. Dry mud allover vapor barrier. Troubling given we're at end of summer dry season. I can tell the water is seeping under the house from higher ground on northeaast side of the property because the grass is green on northeast side, but dry and dead everywhere else. I'd like to try channeling water away, then install sump pump for any that does make it under the house. Then clean out and refurbish he crawl and insulation after water issue is solved.

I have an old farmhouse that I rent out for vacations. The basement leaks continually. I thought it was a gutter and downspout that empties into foundation drain, but this week with dry cold weather, the water in the basement is still flowing water. The drain in the floor is not working very well. Years ago I had 2 inches or more all over the basement floor that we shoveled out the door.
