Water Damaged Georgia, VT Basement

The homeowner in Georgia, Vermont had experienced water damage in their basement.  The majority of the basement had carpeted floors, which got the worst of it.  They also received damage to the lower parts of their walls, that was drywalled.  The owner contacted Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems in search of a way to refinish their basement with products geared more to waterproofing and looking good.  Matt's System Design Specialist introduced the family to a couple of different products, that would both look good and withstand the potential of water damage.  Matt's team fixed the lower drywall areas with an Everlast Wall Restoration System and replaced the old wet carpet with brand new Thermal Dry Carpet.  The Everlast Wall Restoration System provides a solution for homeowners who have experienced wet, damaged or moldy walls in their finished basement, and protects against any future damage. This wall system includes metal studs and an inorganic, mold-resistant wall product that replaces the bottom 32" of your home's drywall. An inorganic base molding and decorative chair rail make this an appealing, long-lasting solution.  The ThermalDry Carpeting doesn’t roll out over the floor; it’s manufactured in square tiles that snap together. With ThermalDry carpet tiles, there’s no foam pad to soak up water. Instead, there’s a waterproof plastic base designed with a built-in drainage plane and thermal break. Water drains through ThermalDry carpet rather than soaking in, eliminating worries about mold, mildew and moisture damage.
