Sloping Back Yard in Athol, MA Made Trouble for the Basement
Challenge
This customer isn't the only one who has had a sloping back yard- and I mean sloping toward the basement. This means whenever it rains the water just runs down the yard like a slide and collects at the foundation making for a really wet mess if the foundation is being penetrated. When we were contacted by this customer we knew we weren't going to go out and re-grade the yard because that isn't what we do but it also isn't addressing the issue with the water entering the basement.
Solution
Our System Design Specialist went to the home and evaluated the sloping yard along with the condition of the basement. He recommended installing 76 feet of CleanSpace Wall System on the walls and also install a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier.
Our CleanSpace Wall System is a very affordable way to provide protection against water damage and stains. It is an incredible moisture and vapor barrier as well as a great way to trap any and all water leaks in the wall. Our customers love to hear that it is also maintenance-free!
Meanwhile our SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier is an incredible unit that actually stops any mold from growing, which in turn gets rid of that musty smell and dust mites! Your basement will also feel much less damp. In general, you can also expect some relief from asthma and allergy symptoms and perhaps over time you will even see a decrease in your electric costs!
