Carroll County's Trusted Basement Waterproofing Company

Jeff of Conway, New Hampshire had a crawlspace that was poorly insulated and allowing cold air to enter his home during the winter months. Additionally, the dirt floor made the space very displeasing and unusable. Jeff wanted to find a solution to keep the space clean and his home warmer. During his search, he found Northern Basement Systems. We provided him with a FREE ESTIMATE with a site visit and project proposal that would solve all of his concerns! 

Our team installed a full CleanSpace Crawl Space Encapsulation System to lock out moisture, make the space cleaner, and more useable. This system is composed of CleanSpace Drainage Matting to channel any water that attempts to enter and CleanSpace Liner to lock out any moisture or dirt. This encapsulation system is completed with a SmartSump Crawl Space Drainage System to keep the crawlspace dry. In the event of a broken pipe or water leaking through the floors of the home, this drain will pump out that water.

Lastly, our team sprayed 3" thick of polyurethane closed-cell foam around the perimeter of the crawlspace to prevent heat loss. This foam was then painted with an intumescent paint to meet the fire regulation code.

This space is now dry, clean, and warm! Call 855-DRY-TIME to find the best solution for your home! 

A family in Center Conway, New Hampshire, noticed every time there was heavy rain, a musty, nasty smell would become predominant through-out the first floor of the home.  The family decided they would investigate the situation and sent dad down into the crawl space.  Well, what he found was that one of the corners of the crawl space was getting water.  

They decided it would be best to seek out professional help with the situation.  After, doing a lot of research they found Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems the most reliable and reputable company around.  They gave 855-DRY-TIME a call and set up a free estimate with one of the company System Design Specialist.  

The System Design Specialist did a thorough 90-minute inspection, then set forth a plan to make sure the customers crawl space would no longer take in water and also control the humidity and bad odors.

Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems team of Installation Specialists installed WaterGuard Perimeter drainage and a SuperSump Plus sump pump.  The water guard will collect any water and bring it to the sump pump.  The sump pump will discharge any water out of the crawl space and down a discharge line, away from the home.  To complete the job the crew installed a state-of-the-art Sedona SaniDry dehumidifier.  The dehumidifier will keep the crawl space at an optimal 55% humidity and removes more moisture (100 pints per day) for less electricity cost than conventional models. 

The family now has a dry crawl space and no longer have that odor emitting from their crawl space.  

In North Conway, New Hampshire, a family was getting ready to put their house on the market.  They wanted to get the most out of the sale of their home, and they knew there was one issue, they kept putting off that needed to be addressed.  It was their basement.  It was significant in size, but also abundant in the amount of water that would enter when it rained.  They decided the time had come to find a solution to the wet basement.  After extensive research and one outstanding recommendation from a local real estate agent, they agreed to go to the basement waterproofing experts at Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems.

The Water Guard is installed just underneath the perimeter edge of the basement floor.  It will collect any water entering and direct it to the sump pump. The Water Guard sits on top of the footing, away from the "mud zone" underneath your floor. Water will be collected without the risk of clogs that would inhibit your system.   The water guard ties into the TripleSafe sump pump.  The TripleSafe comes with the highest-quality cast-iron Zoeller sump pumps.  The Zoeller M53 pumps up to 2,220 gallons per hour at an 8' head, and the Zoeller M98 pumps up to 3,900 gallons per hour at an 8' head.  The sump pump will take all the water out of the water guard and pump it down a discharge line, away from the home.

The crawlspace beneath the old farmhouse in Bartlett, New Hampshire, was a nasty, cold, drafty, and wet place. For years, the homeowners tried to ignore it, hoping the problems would disappear. But as the winter winds began to howl and the snow started to pile up, they knew they could no longer ignore the issue.

So, they called in Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems experts to take a look.

One of Northern Basement's system design technicians arrived on a blustery winter morning. They suited up in their protective gear and headed into the crawlspace, their powerful flashlights cutting through the darkness.

As they inspected the space, they saw that the problem was worse than they had thought. The crawlspace was damp and musty, with water pooling in places and mold growing on the walls. The insulation was old and ineffective, allowing cold air to seep in from outside. And the foundation was cracked and uneven, which caused the floors above to sag and creak.

Northern Basement Systems knew this would be a big job, but they were confident that their team was up to the task. Later, a crew got to work laying down heavy-duty plastic sheeting to create a moisture barrier, installing new insulation, and repairing the foundation.

As the days went by, the crawlspace began to transform. The air grew warmer and drier, and the musty smell faded. And when the job was finished, the homeowners were thrilled with the results. Their crawlspace was now clean, dry, and comfortable, free from drafts and water damage.
