Waterproofing a Basement in Mohawk, TN
Challenge
This Mohawk, TN resident was concerned. What started as a slight musty smell had developed into an off-putting odor. She had lived in the home for 20 years and was worried about her quality of life. Mold not only creates unpleasant odors, but aggravates allergies and asthma. She wanted peace of mind, and she needed an effective and quick solution.
Service Inspector Ryan sat down with the homeowner to discuss her options. He outlined a plan that would not only eradicate the odor, but keep her basement dry and insulated from water damage.
Solution
Primary foreman Danny and his team installed a TripleSafe sump pump system. This system is equipped with three pumps, which means it will continue to function even if another pump is compromised. Even better, it comes with a backup battery to ensure that basement areas are protected even during power outages.
Next, the team installed CleanSpace walling. This liner is made of durable and tear-resistant material, and it keeps areas insulated and free from moisture. The liner comes with a warranty and is mold and mildew resistant.
When the work was finished, the homeowner was thrilled that she would no longer be bothered with unpleasant odors—or headaches, allergies, dry eyes, and asthma!
