Victor Barke's Complete Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Our customer Cassandra from Excelsior, MN had a Complete Basement System installed in January 2014 and had her first maintenance on her basement waterproofing and sump pump system completed in 2018.  

Maintenance is important to prevent a floor in heavy rains.  Sump pumps are electro-mechanical devices that sit in dirty water all the time, and our service is important to make sure it’s ready when big rains come.

Our customer from 2013 in Excelsior was experiencing water issues during the spring thaw and heavy rains.  After searching online for a company to help, they contacted Complete Basement Systems.

The homeowners existing sump pump was not keeping up with the capacity to effectively pump all the water out.  Our installation crew upgraded the existing basket to the elite TripleSafe Sump Pump System.  This "King" of Sump Pumps contains 3 pumping systems.  Pump 1 is operating a 1/3 hp motor, pump 2 is a 1/2 hp and pump 3 is a bettery operated back-up system.  This pumping system can pump out over 12000 or over 24000 gallons.   

When customers call us about their crawl space, they often complain about the musty smells, poor indoor air quality and cold floors.  That is exactly the problem our customer in Excelsior, MN was experiencing.  They remembered us when we addressed his foundation walls made only one call to address their crawl space needs.

This is a common problem that can be repaired with the CleanSpace Crawl Space Encapsulation System.  This simple system will enclose your crawl space and create a dry usable space.  The vapor barrier is installed on the dirt floor and on the walls. 

Our customer in Maple Grove had a metal egress window well and wanted to get an estimate to replace it with a better quality egress window.  

Our installation team installed a RockWell Egress Window with a cover which the customers really liked to avoid the debris that got into their old window well previously without a cover. 

This Maple Grove, MN crawl space had our customer, a new home buyer concerned with moist dirt floor underneath the home.  Very interested in purchasing this home, he contacted the professionals at Complete Basement Systems for an inspection of the crawl space to provide a professional opinion of what needed to be done to ensure safety.

Our System Design Specialist, Ryan Brenner, quickly came to evaluate the situation.  He concluded that the crawl space needed a CleanSpace Liner to create a safer enviornment for the rest of the home.  With a plan set, Ben Heldt and his production team came to the home start the project.

CleanSpace Liner and CleanSpace Drainage Matting were installed to fully encapsulate the crawl space with a 20 mil thick liner along the walls and floor of the dirt crawl space.  

Having a dirt crawl space under a home is a very bad idea.  The earth has high humidity in the soil and the water vapor moves easily into the crawl space and upwards into the house enviornment.  Mold thrives in this enviornment.  With the CleanSpace System has an UltraFresh antimicrobial protection built in to prevent mold growth.  The CleanSpace System has a 25 year warranty as well.
