Advanced Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Radon Gas is an invisible, odorless, radioactive gas in soil and rocks created as uranium decays overtime. The gas will travel through the dirt and seek any openings in the lower levels of the home. Obvious openings are sump pits without sealed lids, cracks in the floor or having an exposed dirt floor crawlspace.

Advanced Basement Systems is a certified Radon Gas Mitigation expert and will design a system to reduce radon entering your home. The system will require the basement to be sealed from the earth which includes the sump pump lid. In this case, the existing pit was used with a sealed lid installed along with the Radon venting system.

Get your home tested to see if you require Radon Gas protection. Give Advanced Basement Systems a call to find out more.

Radon Gas is a radioactive gas that occurs naturally when uranium in the soil and rocks breaks down. It is invisible, odourless and tasteless. Uranium can be found in the ground all-over Southwestern Ontario.

It does not matter what the age is, the type of construction or where your home is located; the only way to be sure of the radon level in your home is to test!

The test result for this home in Forest, ON was high enough for concert by the homeowners.

Advanced Basement Systems is certified in the Canadian National Radon Proficiency Program (C-NRPP) to design and install proper systems to reduce radon gas in homes.

Get your home tested and if the results require mitigation, call Advanced Basement Systems to protect you and your loved ones.

Before

The owners converted and existing garage into a workshop and wanted to use the space all year and requested the hot roof method, in which there is no attic and the roof sheathing is exposed and spray foamed. 

After

Spray foam insulation was used as an efficient way to provide insulation. The foam will add a vapour barrier and required R-value to the space. The Advanced Basement Systems team has been trained and are certified to work from heights and can get to the peak points in the building.

Problem: The homeowner required improved access to their crawl space.

Solution: We installed a steel window well, as part of the crawl space access is below grade and added an EverLast crawl space access door which seals tightly for an ideal crawl space environment.

Problem:  These homeowners had an old sump pump system and pit which was open, creating a humid environment in the home. They were also experiencing some drainage problems and cracks in their basement floor.

Solution: We successfully installed a new SuperSump+™ Sump Pump System. We moved the location of their sump pump, filled in the old pit, filled the floor cracks, and improved their drainage system.
