Rob H. purchased his house three years ago, thinking he had a perfectly dry basement. After a year of living in his new home, Rob noticed that his son's room, located in one corner of the basement, began to show signs of moisture with mold stains appearing on the drywall and floor. Even worse, his son began to develop allergic reactions from the mold.
Following a good friend's recommendation, Rob called Omni Basement Systems -- a basement waterproofing and foundation repair company, serving the Greater Hamilton, ON area -- to help solve his wet basement problems.
After a thorough evaluation of the basement, one of the contractor's system design specialists offered solutions for repairing Rob's wet basement. The Ontario homeowner was happy to learn that his basement could be fixed quickly and affordably.
Omni Basement Systems began by installing a full internal perimeter drainage system, and a powerful sump pump, to capture and divert ground water away from the foundation walls.
The basement walls were restored and the carpet was replaced with fully-waterproof and mold-resistant ThermalDry flooring tiles. ThermalDry flooring is developed to withstand even the harshest basement moisture conditions. The finished surface is raised from the slab by a system of pegs that allow air to circulate underneath and offer thermal protection as well.
Rob's son was able to enjoy a dry, healthy, mold-free room just three days after Omni began the waterproofing project. The customer was also able to walk on warmer floors, because the surface on the ThermalDry tile is at least 10 degrees warmer than the cold slab.
The care and consideration dispensed by Omni Basement Systems' production crews truly impressed Rob, so much so that he wouldn't think twice before recommending Omni to anyone looking for a solution to wet basement problems.
