Experienced Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair in Langley, WA

Like many older houses, Zachary W.’s basement leaked water on and off all through the wet months of the year. When you live in Langley, WA that usually includes nearly six of those months. He purchased his house from his grandmother in 1969 and she had owned it for 20 years by then, and he can’t remember a time when it didn’t leak. He consistently found trace puddles and on occasion the water damaged items he had been storing down there. Whenever the weather did warm up, the wet basement turned into a humid basement and facilitated the growth of mold. With no intentions of moving ever again, Zachary sought an expert for a more long-term solution for his basement troubles.

Rainy Day Basement Systems installed a WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system to catch wall and floor seepage before it reaches the basement; and its unique design prevents it from clogging. A WaterGuard Inspection Port was also added for easy access to the system. A SuperSump Pump was installed to pump all of the water away from the house. The entire space was encapsulated in CleanSpace, an antimicrobial crawl space liner that completely isolates the home from the earth. When coupled with a SaniDry CX dehumidifier, the crawl space is kept at steady temperature and a low enough humidity that mold becomes dormant and new mold cannot grow.

Zachary no longer has to worry about water sneaking into his basement and he can now turn it into a workshop like he always wanted.
