Saving an Old St Paul, MN Basement

Saving an Old St Paul, MN Basement

Saving an Old St Paul, MN Basement Saving an Old St Paul, MN Basement

A St. Paul, MN homeowner reached out to us after years of dealing with constant water intrusion in their basement. Built in 1917, the home’s aging foundation allowed water to seep in regularly, creating a damp, musty environment that limited how the space could be used. Left unresolved, this ongoing intrusion risked further structural issues and continued damage to the home.

 

 

Our System Design Specialist evaluated the property and recommended a complete waterproofing system tailored to protect this historic home. The installation included a WaterGuard interior drainage system to efficiently collect and direct water, CleanSpace vapor barrier to seal walls and prevent moisture penetration, and a SuperSump sump pump with an UltraSump 4 battery backup to ensure reliable pumping even during power outages. To control humidity and air quality, we also installed a Sedona SaniDry dehumidifier. With these proven solutions in place, the basement is now dry, stable, and protected, ensuring this historic home remains safe and usable for the next 100 years.

A homeowner in St. Paul, MN was ready to do something about their musty, damp basement and finally make the space usable again. Ongoing moisture had left the basement feeling uncomfortable and unreliable, so she reached out to Complete Basement Systems for a professional waterproofing solution. When our team inspected the space, we found that she did already have a sump pump, but it was old and no longer working. That made the SuperSump installation an especially important part of the project, giving the basement a reliable way to remove water and protect the space moving forward.

 

 

Along with the new SuperSump system, we also installed our WaterGuard interior drainage system to capture water at the perimeter and our CleanSpace wall system to help create a cleaner, drier environment. Together, these solutions gave the homeowner the dependable waterproofing system she needed to turn her basement into a healthier, more usable part of her home.

Job Stories From Ramsey County, MN
Using CleanSpace to Clean Up a Roseville, MN Crawlspace

 

A homeowner in Roseville, MN contacted us after noticing musty odors and cold floors above their crawlspace. Concerned about air quality and energy efficiency, they wanted a long-term solution to protect their home from moisture and mold.

After inspecting the space, we recommended a full crawlspace encapsulation using our CleanSpace system. This durable vapor barrier was installed across the floor and walls, completely sealing out moisture from the ground. The result? A cleaner, drier, and healthier environment in the home.

 

Now, this homeowner enjoys improved indoor air quality, warmer floors in the winter, and peace of mind knowing their crawlspace is protected.

St. Paul Crawlspace Encapsulation Success Story

When this homeowner from St. Paul reached out to us, he was feeling frustrated. His crawl space was cramped and hard to access, which made it nearly impossible to check on or maintain. Meanwhile, he was noticing some uncomfortable and costly side effects inside his home: the floors above the crawl space were always cold in the winter, his energy bills were climbing, and a persistent musty odor seemed to linger no matter how much he cleaned.

 

Our team sent out one of our System Design Specialists to assess the space. Despite the tight access, we were able to thoroughly inspect the crawl space and found exactly what we expected, exposed soil and stone, deteriorating and failing fiberglass insulation, and debris. All of these factors were contributing to the cold floors, poor energy efficiency, and musty smells moving up into the living space.

 

We walked the homeowner through his options and designed a plan to fully encapsulate the crawl space with our CleanSpace Encapsulation System. This included sealing the ground and walls with a heavy-duty vapor barrier to lock out moisture, insulating the space to improve comfort and efficiency, and closing off all outside air leaks.

 

Once the project was complete, the results were immediate. The musty odors disappeared, the floors above felt noticeably warmer, and the home became far more energy efficient. Best of all, the homeowner now has peace of mind knowing his crawl space is protected and his home is healthier and more comfortable.

 

 

If you’re dealing with similar issues in your crawl space, don’t wait—our team can design a custom solution to keep your home dry, comfortable, and energy efficient too.

Maplewood, MN Basement Waterproofing Project

A homeowner in Maplewood, MN reached out to us after dealing with ongoing water issues in their basement. After heavy rains and snowmelt, water would seep in along the walls and floor, creating constant worry about moisture damage, storage items, and the long-term health of the home. They were ready for a professional, permanent solution, not another temporary fix.

 

After a full inspection, our team designed a waterproofing system tailored to the home’s needs. We installed WaterGuard along the basement perimeter to capture water at its entry point and safely direct it away before it could spread. To ensure reliable protection during even the heaviest storms, we added a SuperSump system, providing powerful, dependable pumping and peace of mind year-round.

 

To finish the job, we installed CleanSpace, a durable vapor barrier that seals out moisture and helps keep the basement clean, dry, and comfortable. Together, these systems work as one to manage water, control humidity, and protect the foundation for the long haul.

 

 

Now, this Maplewood homeowner can enjoy a dry basement without worrying about future water problems. With a permanent waterproofing solution in place, their lower level is protected, and they can focus on enjoying their home, no matter what the Minnesota weather brings.

St Paul, MN Basement Waterproofing

This St. Paul, MN, couple had been dealing with continuous water problems in their basement for far too long. Heavy rains meant damp floors, seepage along the walls, and the constant stress of wondering when the next cleanup would be needed. After years of temporary fixes and unanswered questions, they reached out to our team looking for a professional opinion and a permanent solution.

 

After a full inspection, we identified that groundwater intrusion along the foundation perimeter was the root cause of their issues. To solve the problem for good, we designed a comprehensive waterproofing system tailored to their home.

 

We installed WaterGuard, our interior perimeter drainage system, to capture water at the foundation footing and safely direct it away before it could enter the basement. To create a clean, dry barrier along the walls, we added CleanSpace, which helps block moisture and directs any wall seepage into the drainage system. Finally, we installed a SuperSump pump system with UltraSump battery backup, ensuring reliable protection even during heavy storms or power outages.

 

 

With these systems working together, this couple now has a basement they can confidently rely on. Dry, protected, and worry-free for years to come. What started as a request for advice ended with a permanent fix and peace of mind, no matter what the Minnesota weather brings.
