Recent Jobs For Basement & Radon Solutions

Basement & Radon Solutions, BRS Pros, did quite a bit for Jordan, and here is how it went…1. Mold Cleaning- remove all fungus/mold contaminated sub-floor insulation and moisture vapor barrier from the crawl space and dispose of it in the landfill. The crawl space sub-floor wood components will be cleaned and deodorized for wood decaying fungi and organic growth. After cleaning, an EPA registered fungicide is completely fogged throughout the crawlspace. It will kill 99.9% of mold spores and will inhibit the growth of mold and mildew.2. Spray Foam- Class A fire rated polyurethane closed cell spray foam insulation was sprayed on the rim joist and sill plates. It prevents air infiltration and will insulate the wood band plate (rim joist) above the masonry foundation wall.3. Hydra Channel- A clean trench was dug adjacent to the foundation footing along the four interior perimeter foundation wall. The Hydra Channel was then installed adjacent to the footing. The Hydra-Channel engineered fusion welded high strength polyethylene water system will remove storm water up to 70% faster than a pipe and stone system. It will allow water to flow freely to the in-ground sealed sump pump/basin located in the left front interior of the crawl space. 4. Sump Pump- Installed our GrateSump basin with a removeable (flush with floor) lid covered with stone in the left front corner of the crawl space. The system includes 1/3 HP cast iron primary pump with a dual float cage that protects debris from the float. Included is a deluxe controller that monitors the pump and power conditions. It will sound an alarm if problems are detected or a high water warning in the sump. Additionally, it activates the pump weekly to exercise and extend the pumps life.5. Foundation Vents- Foundation vents were completely sealed with poly-foam insulation from the interior of the crawl space. This is preventing exterior air and moisture from coming into the crawl space.6. Blanket Insulation- We install fiberglass blanket insulation to the interior perimeter foundation walls. The insulation is 4 thick which offers an R-13 insulation factor (code compliant for new construction). Insulation was hung approximately 6″ from the top of the interior masonry foundation wall to provide a termite inspection and will cover the wall to approximately 4″ off the ground.7. Liners- “

We removed organic growth and mold contaminated sub-flooring insulation and reinstalled with new, repaired affected issues in the crawlspace, repaired 30′ of the foundation wall, encapsulated the crawlspace, sealed all foundation vents and piers, installed a condensate pump and dehumidifier.

Installed a Sub-Slab radon mitigation system bringing the radon level average down to 2.1 pCi/l

We installed a French Drain interior system, Sump pump, and a 6-mil moisture barrier in the crawlspace

We installed a Sub-Membrane radon mitigation system and brought the radon average down to 1.0 pCi/l

We installed a Sub-Slab radon mitigation system which brought the radon level down to an acceptable 3.2 pCi/l

We installed an exterior radon system bringing the average level down to .6 pCi/l

We tested and did not find an elevated radon level. The home tested at .6 pCi/l which is well below the acceptable level. No mitigation was needed.

We tested the home for radon, and the results showed an average of 4.2 pCi/l. Since the results were only slightly above the acceptable level, the homeowner decided to retest in the future to determine whether mitigation was needed.

We installed a sub-slab mitigation system which brought the radon average down to .9 pCi/l

We installed an Aprilaire dehumidifier to control humidity.

We installed a sub-slab radon mitigation system and brought the radon average down to 2.3 pCi/l

We installed a sub slab radon mitigation system bringing the radon average down to 2.1 pCi/l, installed a Fast Drain perimeter system, a sump pump, and a vapor barrier on the foundation wall

We installed a radon mitigation system bringing the average level down to .6 pCi/l, sealed all foundation vents, and installed an Aprilaire 1850 dehumidifier.

We installed a sub-slab mitigation system bringing the radon level down to an average of .6 pCi/l
