Homeowners in Nashville, Tennessee used Frontier's waterproofing services and we were able to permanently get rid of the standing water in their basement!

A homeowner in Nashville, TN, faced persistent basement flooding despite trying various solutions, leading to frustration and potential property damage. Seeking a permanent solution, they enlisted our help. We meticulously excavated and drilled weep holes, crucial for installing the Water Guard System, which we integrated with the Triple Safe Sump Pump for enhanced efficiency. Our team laid waterproofing components in trenches, covered them with gravel and concrete, and incorporated IceGuard and a drainage system to redirect water away from the basement. After our comprehensive waterproofing efforts, the homeowner gained peace of mind knowing their basement was fortified against future flooding and costly repairs.

Before seeking assistance, a homeowner in Nashville, TN, faced dual challenges of recurring flooding in their basement and foundation settlement issues, which manifested as sagging floors. These problems caused inconvenience and structural concerns, prompting the homeowner to take action. After implementing waterproofing measures to address the flooding, our team returned to tackle the foundation repair. The interior cracks and sagging floors indicated significant structural instability, necessitating the use of SmartJack Stabilizers. These stabilizers, reinforced by steel beams, were strategically installed to provide enduring support and restore stability to the foundation. Crafted from galvanized steel, SmartJack Stabilizers offer a long-lasting solution, capable of elevating structures back to their original position. With this comprehensive approach, we successfully resolved both the flooding and foundation settlement issues for the homeowner in Nashville, TN, ensuring their property's structural integrity and peace of mind.

In Nashville, TN, a homeowner found themselves grappling with uncomfortably high relative humidity levels reaching 85%, coupled with a concerning wood moisture content of 16%. Unchecked, a crawl space can become a breeding ground for excess moisture, leading to mold growth, wood rot, and a host of other structural issues. To combat these issues head-on, our encapsulation process was employed. First, we laid down drainage matting to provide a pathway for existing water to escape. Then, a robust CleanSpace Liner, 20mil thick, was meticulously installed over the drainage matting, creating a barrier that significantly reduces moisture and humidity infiltration from the ground. Additionally, vents were sealed using SilverGlo insulation to further fortify the crawl space against external moisture intrusion. A Triple Safe Sump Pump, along with an IceGuard and comprehensive drainage system, ensures efficient water removal even in the face of severe weather conditions. Finally, to maintain optimal humidity levels, a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier was installed, guaranteeing a dry and healthy environment. If you're experiencing similar issues, don't hesitate to contact us for a free estimate and take the first step toward a moisture-free crawl space.

In Nashville, a homeowner faced a problem with musty smells coming from their crawl space due to high moisture levels and mold growth. To improve indoor air quality, we began by installing drainage matting, which helps water drain away and promotes better ventilation. Next, we applied a 20-mil thick CleanSpace liner over the matting to create a moisture barrier, reducing humidity and preventing mold growth. To further minimize moisture, we sealed all vents with SilverGlo insulation. Afterward, we installed a Triple Safe Sump Pump, IceGuard, and Drainage system to manage water effectively, even in extreme weather. Additionally, we installed a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier to keep humidity levels optimal in the crawl space. The project was completed with the installation of a new EverLast Door made of 1/2-inch-thick PVC plastic, ensuring a tight seal.
