Water Issues:
Wet Basement
Basement moisture is a homeowner’s worst nightmare. Even if you don’t have this space finished, you likely use it as an area to store things you don’t have room for upstairs or in the garage. A lot of homeowners want to know what causes the leaks to begin with. Often times, water can seep into your home through the cove joint (where the wall meets the floor), through leaking wall or floor cracks, or rising through the concrete floor itself. Regardless of what’s causing the problem, you need to get it taken care of immediately before the water issue gets worse – and it will get worse given time.

SafeBasements ENGINEERED PRODUCTS THAT WE STAND BY

SafeBasement™ Sump Pump – These sump pumps are specially-designed to be very energy efficient. These pumps will be able to drain water away from the basement walls, lower the water table under the floor and around the home, and even improve indoor air quality in your home.
The sumps are installed carefully with a seal and cover that prevents dangerous soil gasses from making their way up and into your family’s home. Our sump pumps come with a clear lid for easy inspection, as well.

SafeBasements™ Interior Drain Tile System – This is an incredibly advanced system that provides a deeper profile which allows it to cover more surface area than other traditional systems on the market. The increased surface area allows for more water to be directed to a sump basket in faster time than with an alternative system. A great choice for many homeowners in Minneapolis-St. Paul, our drain tile system features multi-flow™ drain tile, SafeEdge™, sump basket with clear lid and a variety of sump pump options. Our patented SafeEdge™ has a rubber seal to minimize moisture vapor and radon gas from entering your home through the cove joint so it can be sent out and away from your home through the sump pump system. The SafeBasements™ Multi-Flow™ Drain Tile is installed level around the perimeter of the footer. This creates several positive engineering effects. First and foremost, it allows the Multi-flow Drain Tile to take on water in 5 slow and steady stages. This “staging” allows for a slow and steady flow rate that maintains the water table under your home well below the slab. Keeping the water table well below the slab and conserving the soil under the footing maintains a strong footer and lessens potential slab cracking created by hydrostatic pressure.

Basement Dehumidifiers – A dehumidifier can be installed quickly in the basement, and we have a variety of models available. We will help you to choose the best one for your home based on the basement’s size. You won’t want a system that is too large or too big for your home’s unique needs. The dehumidifier will control the levels of humidity in the air so that you won’t need to worry about dangerous mold growth or the other problems it can lead to.

Encapsulation – We make use of the Healthy Living Encapsulation System from SafeBasements™ to fix and seal this area below your home. When you don’t have a sealed crawl space, you will have problems with moisture, excessive humdity, and unwanted critters – as mentioned above. During the encapsulation process, we will install a vapor barrier that is white, durable, and strong. It is attached to the wall and floor surfaces. It will permanently seal this area off from the outside environment so that this space stays safe, dry, and healthy. No moisture means no mold growth and no wood rot.
