If you've ever noticed puddling or seepage from the wall/floor joint, or on the floor in your basement, then your home is in need of a quality basement waterproofing system. Without addressing the issue, water problems never get better, they only get worse.

Twin State Basements' basement waterproofing system is a sub-floor drainage system engineered specifically to solve basement water problems without concerns of clogging from saturated soils under the floor. Our patented systems can be designed to solve the problems of any home, regardless of how bad the water problem is.

Crawl Space Repair and Moisture Control in Twin State Basements

Crawl spaces repaired with a unique encapsulation system, a powerful dehumidification system, and a patented drainage system.

You are not alone, most every dirt crawl space has high humidity and excessive moisture. These conditions are perfect for mold growth, so you should consider taking immediate action. Did you know that over 50% of the air that you breathe on the first floor of your home comes up from the basement or crawl space? Due to this "stack effect", waterproofing and encapsulating your crawl space is essential to your family's health.

A crawl space is basically a small basement. In homes with crawlspaces, the living area is so close to the unconditioned space, that moisture and unhealthy air infiltrate the home, causing potential health hazards to you and your family.

Crawl Space Problems and Their Solutions

At Twin State Basements, we help our customers in Vermont & Western New Hampshire by getting to the root of the problem.

Crawl Space Drainage System -If there are issues with standing water, we begin by installing a perimeter drainage system prior to the encapsulation process. We then run this drainage system into our GrateSump™ Sump Pump System to remove the water from the crawl space.

DimpleShield Drainage Matting - This dimpled plastic material may be used on high footings or concrete floors to assist with crawl space drainage issues.

Crawl Space Vent Covers -Most crawl spaces have been vented due to antiquated building codes. We now know that venting a crawl space creates big problems and it's necessary to seal any vents or areas where outside air can get in. We have patented crawl space vent covers to solve this issue.

Foundation Repair in Vermont & Western New Hampshire

Foundation Repair system

Twin State Basements Services knows that when it comes to foundation repair, there is more than one way to tackle the problem. Although the most common cause of foundation troubles comes from the soil beneath it, leaking pipes, a damaged crawl space, and a number of other situations can severely affect your foundation as well.

Preparation is a key component whenever we receive a foundation repair job. We determine the cause of the problem before proceeding to design the best repair method.

Sump Pump Systems Installed in Vermont & Western New Hampshire

Twin State Basements prevent water and moisture from entering your basement with a reliable sump pump system that works directly with our patented waterproofing system. This system channels the water through the perimeter drainage system to the sump pump system, which then quickly pumps the water out of your home. The sump pump system is generally installed in the lowest section of your basement or crawl space to keep the area completely dry all the time.

When your goal is to keep your basement dry permanently, you will need a quality sump pump system connected to your perimeter drainage system.

If your sump pump doesn't work for any reason, your waterproofing system will fail and your basement may get wet. That is why you should use the highest quality sump pump systems available and make sure that it is regularly serviced. A battery backup pumping system is also a smart decision, to keep you safe when the power goes out, during thunderstorms.

Mold, Dust Mites & Odors Eliminated in Vermont & Western New Hampshire

Just because you have a basement waterproofing system, doesn't mean your basement is completely dry and free of moisture. If your basement doesn't look, feel or smell dry, it's probably not and this means mold, dust mites, and odors are most likely present.

You could be unaware that your basement is damp and acting as a breeding ground for mold, dust mites and odor-causing damage. Condensation is usually present if outside air is warmer than indoor air, especially if it's humid outside. Subterranean level homes carry the most damage from humidity because the relative humidity of air increases by 2.2% for every degree you cool it. But, because basements are below ground, they're usually cooler, and since air flows upwards, it has the ability to escape through higher levels with new air being absorbed in the lower levels.
