Photo Album: Smelly Basement Transformation in St. Paul, MN

St. Paul homeowners were tired of that all-too-familiar musty smell in their basement, and were concerned about the constant moisture in the space. That smell is a key indicator of mold and mildew, which develop when there is moisture in the basement. Especially with organic materials like wood in the space, this can quickly become a health hazard. The homeowners got the full makeover from Complete Basement Systems, with a full perimeter waterproofing system, sump pump, efficient windows, and wall vapor barrier so that the space stays dry and safe for the life of the home!

Crew at Work

The crew worked to install new, energy-efficient windows throughout the basement.

The Guts of the System

The CleanSpace wall vapor barrier directly ties into the waterproofing system to ensure that all moisture stays out of the space.

Before: Problematic Window

Basements seem to be the last place for updates like energy-efficient windows. This can cause higher energy bills and moisture problems in the space.

Before: A Home for Mold

Wall paneling that is exposed to moisture can quickly become home to growing mold and mildew.

Before: Source of the Smell

The wood paneling was damp all along the bottom portion, and was home to mold and mildew.

Installed SuperSump

Our SuperSump sump pump system is ready to remove all moisture from the basement!

Upgrades!

The crew worked to install new energy-efficient windows in the space, as well as the CleanSpace wall vapor barrier system.

WaterGuard System

Once the crew installed the WaterGuard waterproofing system around the perimeter of the space, they prepped the area to pour concrete over the system so that the homeowners can install the flooring of their choice.
