Trust Us With Your Crawl Space Encapsulation In Wexford, PA

Recently, a homeowner in Wexford, PA, reached out to us with concerns about persistent water and dampness in their basement. Understanding the frustration and potential damage such issues can cause, we were on a mission to turn their damp basement into a dry and comfortable space. Our first step was to have our System Design Specialist visit the home for a complete inspection. Our specialist found that the basement's water issues were due to inadequate drainage and an underperforming sump pump. We proposed a solution that included the installation of CleanSpace to provide a waterproof barrier on the walls, our TripleSafe Sump Pump to ensure efficient water evacuation from the basement, the reliable WaterGuard drainage system to channel water effectively, and the SaniDry Sedona to control humidity and purify the air. Our foreman and the production team went to work, transforming the problematic basement with precision and care. We started by installing the WaterGuard system at the basement's periphery, ensuring it was perfectly positioned to capture water seeping in. Next, we fitted the TripleSafe Sump Pump, a robust system designed to handle various water volume levels and equipped with a backup in case of power outages. With the major water issues addressed, we moved on to improving the air quality and ensuring the space remained dry with the SaniDry Sedona - a compact but powerful dehumidifier. The final step was to install the CleanSpace liner across the basement walls, creating a clean, moisture-resistant barrier that also helped brighten up the space. After the project was completed, the homeowner was beyond relieved to see their once damp and dreary basement transformed into a dry, safe, and comfortable area. They appreciated not only the effectiveness of the solutions we provided.

It’s never a good thing to have a bowed or cracking basement foundation wall, but it is even worse when the basement is finished because usually the finishing materials are in the way of where the repairs will be placed.  Most contractors are not experts in foundation repair and require the entire finished wall to be removed in order to repair it.  An expert firm like Keystone Basement Systems, Inc may be able to make more precise points of entry into the finished wall to reinforce it, while keeping a good portion of the finished wall in tact.  This way, the restoration cost is far less than if the wall had been completely removed. 

CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcement System is a state-of-the-art solution for bowing and cracking foundation walls. Using the same technology the Army Corps of Engineers uses for reinforcing bomb shelters, the system reinforces walls and is guaranteed. 

The CarbonArmor® System includes flexible carbon fiber fabric straps that are up to 10 times stronger in tension than steel. Using high strength epoxy resin, the carbon fiber straps are bonded to the interior face of the wall. The straps will stabilize the wall. This system requires no exterior excavation, installs quickly, and won't impact future basement finishing.
