Front of the Home
This Haddonfield sits on top of a damp, partially finished basement, and a nasty crawl space. The home also has a couple minor foundation cracks.
Side of the Home
On this side of the home, you can see an old window well that is allowing water into the basement. Dry Guys has a number of great products to fix this problem.
Old Window Well
Closeup of the old, inefficient window well that is letting water and outside air into their home.
Back of the Home
This is the back of the home. The newer looking addition sits on top of a nasty dirt crawl space.
Another Old Window Well
Another old window well to be replaced by dry guys. Replacing old windows like this can save a lot of money on heating and cooling costs.
Wooden Casing on a Basement Window
This wooden casing over the window was very inefficient. Wood is very porous, and this was sitting right on the group where water collects. The Dry Guys crew will replace this window with a better looking, more efficient alternative.
Downspout
The downspout from the gutter next to some foundation cracking in the concrete of the stairs.
Inside the Home
View down the stairs to the partially finished basement.
Inside the Basement
Before shot of the basement. The wood paneling is not a good choice in a damp basement. You can see some of the water damage along the bottom of the panels.
Window from Inside
View of the old, nasty window from inside the home. This will be replaced by a great-looking new window that will keep out all water.
Water Damage Inside
Some more water damage inside the basement.
Unfinished Portion
There's no wall paneling in this section of the basement, but there is still some visible water damage along the floor.
Crawl Space Area
Dampness is visible in this nasty crawl space area. Dry Guys was originally contacted about water coming up through the floor in this area.
Another View of the Crawl Space Area
The dampness is very visible in the back corner of the crawl space. Dry Guys will take care of the problem with the patented CleanSpace system.
Another Shot of the Partially Finished Area
The paneling in this area is coming down to be replaced by the BrightWall system.
Water Damage in the Finished Area
Another shot of some water damage in the finished side of the basement. This is most visible along the brick area.
One of the Old Sump Pumps
One of the old sumps in this basement. This pump just isn't doing enough to keep the space dry.
Second Old Sump Pump
This old sump pump will be replaced by the patented SuperSump.
Replacement Window and Well
The EverLast window and SunHouse window well. These newly installed features look great and keep out the water.
Another New Window
These wells work great in soil or concrete. This well was installed in part of the back patio.
Third Window and Well
This is what replaced the old window and wooden cover on the side of the home. This window and well will keep out water much better than the older window.
Installing the BrightWall
BrightWall is a 100% waterproof rigid plastic paneling for unfinished basement walls. It's durable, washable, and will not support the growth of mold or rot.

In addition to the great finishing products, the homeowner also got the patented WaterGuard waterproofing system. The system works together well with the finishing products to keep your basement dry and make it look great.

Cleaning Up
Unlike ceramic basement floor tiles, ThermalDry basement flooring will never crack or shatter. They are stain-resistant, and their interlocking design assures that damaged tiles can be easily replaced.

The ThermalDry flooring is made to fit any basement layout.
CleanSpace Install
The CleanSpace Crawl Space Vapor Barrier installs quickly in your home, attaching to the walls with plastic pegs. Typical jobs take less than a day.
CleanSpace in the Crawl Space
This Image shows how the CleanSpace system fits in the crawl space.
The CleanSpace is very Energy Efficient
The CleanSpace system will keep the crawl space dry and keep the insulation in its place, doing its job.
Protecting Your Crawl Space
Along with protection from mold and rot, a dry crawl space will also be inhospitable to termites, cockroaches, ants, crickets, and many other pests that need excess moisture to survive. Mice and rats are deterred by the plastic vapor barrier, and flooding waters will be kept at bay.
