Adirondack Basement Systems recently had the opportunity to assist The Nassau Free Library in Nassau, NY. The crawl space below the library needed a vapor barrier and some much-needed support to stop the floors from sagging.
Bill Seabridge is one of our structural System Design Specialists, once he was assigned this inspection he was right out there to propose a solution for this amazing facility! Bill proposed SmartJacks to replace the old style jacks they were using to support the structure. He also proposed CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system.
The library had a dirt crawl space under it, this damp environment is very unhealthy and destructive. The CleanSpace encapsulation system completely isolated the library from the earth, this dramatically reduced the humidity level in the air which, when combined with sealing outside air and dehumidification, eliminated mold growth and rot from their crawl space, this has made the entire library a healthier place.
BrightWall has the ability to transform the look and health of a basement. With its clean, sleek design and effective insulation and moisture prevention capabilities, BrightWall is a great choice for all-around improvement. A product most effective when paired with our other waterproofing products, BrightWall is a fantastic addition to any basement. And if you’re planning on finishing your basement, it’s the perfect option for getting the process started, especially since any other system can be installed over the top of it.
Water was coming up through the floor. We installed our TripleSafe system with Waterguard.
This home had water coming into the basement and homeowners needed a solution as soon as possible so that this would not happen in the future. Our install crew, installed six feet of TrenchDrain with a drainage matting so that the water will all go into the TrenchDrain and out of the home!
Zen Wall is a 1/4 inch thick encapsulated fiberglass core with a reflective foil vapor barrier on the back side and a decorative vinyl finish on the front side. It is used with a perimeter basement waterproofing system to waterproof a basement wall, and stop water vapor from coming through the wall into the basement air. This enables your basement walls to look dry, and get a clean finished look in one easy step.
