DryZone, LLC serving Kent, DE

This homeowner's sidewalk was dangerous and hard to navigate. When dealing with settling of this nature, the typical response is to either rip up the concrete and replace or to use mud jacking to raise the slab. Ripping up the concrete and be costly and can still have settling down the road. As well it takes time for the concrete to cure and the pathway wouldn't be passable for some time. This is a huge inconvenience for the homeowner. Mud jacking is an old approach to leveling concrete that that is not always reliable and causing a huge mess and clean up. This involves drilling a hole into the concrete and pouring more concrete under the slab. 

Rather then using these two approaches, the homeowners chose to use PolyLevel. This is an innovative way for DryZone to lift and level the concrete. Using a 2 part compound, we drill a small, dime sized holes in to the concrete, inject the PolyLevel compound and slowly raise the slab to the desired level. This takes a matter of minutes and is ready for traffic within 15 minutes of curing. Josh Richmond our PolyLevel foreman was able to successfully raise the slabs and create a safe walking area for the homeowners. 

PolyLevel injection has so many uses. Similar would be the application used to raise 300 feet of busy Route 1 highway near Middletown and Dover. 

The homeowners of this house noticed a crack in their foundation from the outside while they were planning to sell their home. Inside their home they had a finished basement with drywall on the walls. They had never noticed the crack inside their home before but after the inspection a large crack extending from the top of the foundation to the footer was revealed. Further inspection revealed that the side walk to the front door had settling as well.

A crack of this nature is typically caused by water intrusion and slab settling. Foundation are typically made of 3 parts. The footer, the floor and the wall. When there is water seepage and settling of the soil outside can cause the home and foundation to move. This is why you might see cracks inside your home or doors and windows that are hard to open and close. When you notice a crack it is important to get it repaired, the longer you wait the bigger the problem is going to be. Hiding the problem by patching over drywall cracks or tuck-pointing in bike or place are only band-aid fixes. There real problem still exists and hasn’t been solved. The cracks will re-apprear, more repairs will be made, and soon you will have a patch over a patch over a patch.

For this homeowner the fix was to install 6 push piers in the basement to put the house back into its original position. Push piers are made if steel and are driven deep into the soil to defrock or another stable soil layer. Push piers can ofter close cracks and improve the operation of doors and windows. This is a solution that will solve the problem once and for all and involves minimal disturbance from installation.

This home in Dover had a slab that was in need of lift. When a slab settles especially around the house. It can cause major problems for the homeowner. Water can be directed towards the home and can cause foundation issues, crawl space or basement water seepage, and further settlement of the soil around the house. A innovative fix to this is using the PolyLevel Injection Foam. This way the homeowner didn’t have to rip up the slab and cause little disturbance or inconvenience to the homeowner. 

DryZone was approached by Manny Carrar concerning the Governor’s Mansion Guest House, also known as Hall House regarding a water leakage issue in the basement of the mansion. This home was built in 1790 and has been a historic figure in the capital of Delaware ever since. Through our previous government projects, the Hall House heard about our professional waterproofing work and decided to give us a call. We have worked with companies such as Paradise Grill, Assawoman Canal Bridge, Johnson Victrola Museum, and more. DryZone came out to the property to take a look at the problem and discovered there was more than one issue regarding the basement. Water leakage from the basement walls was not the only issue but we also found unleveled flooring throughout the basement. DryZone had to come up with a solution to dry the basement and keep the floor leveled while keeping the historic integrity of the Victorian mansion.

DryZone specializes in many products but the specific ones we used for this project was TrenchDrain, TripleSafe Sump Pump, and IceGuard. When deciding on which drainage system to use, DryZone chose TrenchDrain to maintain the historic integrity of the home.  Also, the homeowner wanted a product that would not stick up out of the ground but instead stay at ground level. TrenchDrain goes into the floor and levels out with the rest of the ground while allowing water to flow straight into the drain. The TrenchDrain sits in a TrenchLock with little cups and balls that seal air from the ground. When water flows in, the balls float up and let the water down, and then reseat when it’s over. From there, the water will go into the pipes which flows through the TripeSump Pump. Lastly, the IceGuard was installed to the outside of the home for the water to flow out of the basement. The major benefit of the IceGuard is that water can only flow outside of the basement and cannot come back into the home.

DryZone is glad that Manny Carrar called us when he did because we were able to solve the problem with their basement immediately and effectively. Now downtown Dover has a safe Governor’s Mansion Guest House and water damage is no longer an issue.

Insulation is falling, water is filling and mold is smelling. Why would anyone want to live with these problems in their crawl space? These homeowners in Marydel, DE definitely did not want to live with these problems any longer. The homeowners contacted DryZone to take a look at their home and see how we could fix their crawl space because they could not live with the problem any longer.

Concrete crawl spaces are not the solution. DryZone recommends a product called "CleanSpace", which is made to perform to all the requirements. CleanSpace has multiple layers of plastics with different characteristics of flexibility and puncture and tear resistance. CleanSpace is bright white, which dramatically transforms your crawl space from the nasty pit it was to one you wouldn't hesitate to slide around in. These homeowners wanted CleanSpace for their crawl space as well as the TripleSafe sump pump to keep the water out. Also, installing a dehumidifier in the crawl space was important to them because they needed to keep the area dry to prevent moisture and odors. 

A crawlspace with fiberglass insulation is not in better shape than a crawl space without because the insulation begins to fall just as you see in these images. The moisture in the crawlspace is extremely powerful and the insulation absorbs the moisture but when the insulation is filled it begins to fall down, which creates the debris and mess in the crawl space. In Marydel, DE, the crawl space needs the insulation, debris, and moisture to be taken care of. DryZone helped these homeowners by removing the insulation and installing a condensation pump to keep the air dry.

Who would have thought this would happen?? Our house isn't that old! 

Many homeowners say these things when they notice their concrete shifting and becoming uneven on their property. Over time, what was once level and strong weakens and fails, but why?

Concrete is strong and durable and is used from airport runways to the sidewalks in front of your home. But eventually, concrete can crack and settle. Sometimes, the soil below your slabs is poorly compacted, other times it is too dry or wet. Your weather, type of soil in your location, and how the concrete slab site was prepared all affect your concrete slabs on your property. 

Concerned about your concrete? Call us to schedule an appointment, which includes a free estimate!

- Strong & Durable Through Harsh Weather

- Safe, Secure & Lockable 

- Looks great 

- Available in Brown or Green

With a call to DryZone, we were able to find their crawlspace was very damp and needed to be taken care of as soon as possible! The ductwork was dripping with water and some water was pooled up in different parts of the crawlspace, which can lead to mold growth and even rot of floor joists.

The good news for this family is that we CAN fix it! After their inspection, the family and DryZone teamed up to create the best plan of action to keep the crawlspace controlled. 

First we removed all the batt insulation that was soaking wet from moisture. We then installed CleanSpace crawlspace liner, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier and a condensate pump to keep the water out of the crawlspace for good.

Before selling their home, this Magnolia homeowner wanted to insulate and waterproof their basement. After removing old and falling insulation, DryZone installed a thick Foamax insulation board and covered it with CleanSpace to seal the room from moisture. 

This Felton homeowner called in and asked if DryZone had any suggestions to improve the crawlspace of her home. Due to the number or piers under her home, she wanted to be sure they were protected from moisture damage. The walls, floor, and piers were all wrapped in CleanSpace and a SaniDry dehumidifier was placed to control the humidity underneath the home. 

After noticing a significant amount of water in the crawlspace, this Clayton homeowner called DryZone to see where the water was coming from. After a free, no obligation, inspection from a Design Specialist, DryZone realized there was a crawlspace entrance that was not sealed off and allowed water to pool in during heavy rain. 

The crawlspace was wrapped by CleanSpace and a dehimidifier was installed. To prevent more water from coming in, DryZone installed a window entry well around the entrance of the crawlspace. Then, a TripleSafe sump pump was put in place to expell of any water that entered. 

Peter A. called DryZone after seeing the encapsulation work done in his daughter's home. His main goal was improving the high moisture content in his crawlspace. After a free inspection, the Design Specialist at DryZone noticed some areas where air was coming in. 

To resolve the issue of high moisture and proper insulation, a thick and waterproof insulation was installed on the brick foundation. Lowering high humidity was resolved by adding drainage matting as well as a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. 

Every heavy rainfall turned this Houston, DE home into a flood zone. This homeowner knew she needed better drainage and a sump pump that could take on heavy rainfall. After a free inspection, DryZone knew her home would be the best fit for a WaterGuard trench drain that would collect water from the basement and any groundwater. This drainage system leads to a TripleSafe sump pump that has a battery backup in case of a power outage in a storm. With added CleanSpace on the perimeter of the basement ready to collect any water that enters, this home is ready for any upcoming storm!

Pool decks can sink at a rapid pace due to water going between concrete slabs. This Felton, DE homeowner realized the tripping hazard surrounding their pool was getting worse and worse every year. With DryZone, the pool deck is not only level, but the seams are sealed to prevent water from washing away dirt underneath causing more sinking over time!

With a thin vapor barrier and lots of falling insulation, this Felton, DE home was letting in much air from outside. Because of this, the humidity levels changed constantly, causing microbial growth and inviting insects to live underneath the home. DryZone saw evidences of high humidity during the free, no obligation, inspection. To correct this, the crawl space needed to be completely sealed off from the outside with CleanSpace. After sealing, DryZone installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to control the environment. 

Water intrusion in your crawl space causes more than just high moisture in the air. This Harrington, DE homeowner called DryZone after noticing their floor supports seemed to be sinking. After an inspection with a Design Specialist, it was discovered the dirt was eroding around the supports which caused them to sink lower. DryZone encapsulated the crawl space to control the moisture and improved the support of the floors by adding smart jacks to stabilize. 

Basements can allow a lot of water to come in year round. Not only did rain water compromise these basement walls, but ground water would come up and cause even further water damage. DryZone scheduled a free estimate with the homeowner and designed a proper drainage system to efficiently remove water from the basement. CleanSpace on the walls guides water into a trench drain around the base, then the water leads into a sump pump that discharges outside of the home completely!To finish this project, DryZone installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to control the humidity. 

Knowing the damages water can inflict on a basement encouraged this homeowner to protect her home. She wanted to nip the problem in the bud before it became a much larger issue in the future. DryZone's Design Specialist performed a full inspection and understood the concerns of the homeowner. She informed the Design Specialist, "my basement is in great condition, and I want to keep it that way!" DryZone installed a trench drain system around the perimeter of the basement leading to a TripleSafe sump pump. To maintain the moisture level, the walls of the basement were wrapped in CleanSpace and a SaniDry dehumidifier was installed. Now this homeowner has peace of mind knowing her home is protected from future moisture issues. 

Moving closer to family in Delaware was extremely important to this couple. They could plan many more outings with grandchildren and children when living much closer. One vital detail they remembered was having an encapsulated crawl space in their old home a few states away. After learning that DryZone offers encapsulation, they knew they wanted the work done in their Delaware home. DryZone took time to answer questions and explain the process and compare it to the encapsulation in their previous home. Excited about the job, the homeowners scheduled for an encapsulation. DryZone encapsulated the crawl space with a strong vapor barrier and placed a SsaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to control the environment of the crawl space. Now the air is clean, dry, and safe for grandchildren to visit!

Staying in this home forever was a primary goal for this homeowner. However, some doors in the home were beginning to be difficult to open. They believed it was an issue that occurred in certain seasons with the expanding and contracting of wood. After the seasons changed, the problem persisted. For over a year this Marydel, DE homeowner dealt with this problem before determining it must be a bigger issue. They called the experts at DryZone to see what could be done to repair her home. After a free no-obligation inspection, it was discovered the floors in her home were unlevel and starting to sag. DryZone helped alleviate the moisture in the crawl space with drainage matting before stabilizing the floors with SmartJacks. Over time the SmartJacks can be adjusted so this home is protected for the rest of its life. 

Water started to come into this Magnolia, DE basement every time it rained. No matter what this homeowner did, water surrounded the perimeter of the basement. DryZone knew the best thing for this home was a drainage system and a strong sump pump to remove rainwater. 

Moving into a new home in Magnolia, DE was an exciting time for this homeowner. However, after a couple of months, they noticed significantly high energy bills. Their HVAC system was working overtime and the floors were still cold! They knew they needed a better solution to make their home warmer and more efficient in the winter months. DryZone performed a free inspection and noticed the crawl space vents were wide open, allowing cold air to cool down the ducts that carried warm air to the home. To keep these ducts protected from cold outside air, the vents needed to be sealed, and any gaps in the walls had to be sealed. DryZone encapsulated the crawl space to block out air and water vapor from the earth. To further protect the heating and cooling system, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was added to control the environment. Now the HVAC system can work efficiently!

Every winter, cold floors plagued this single-story home. It felt like every room was freezing and the heat could not be turned high enough. For this Camden Wyoming, DE family, insulating the crawl space was a top priority to face upcoming cold winters. DryZone took down old, falling insulation in the crawl space and lined the foundation walls with a 2-inch thick foam board!

Every rainstorm brought water into this Camden Wyoming, DE basement. When it came to big rainstorms, power outages were an even bigger concern. Because the basement was finished, the homeowner was worried his things would be ruined if the power were to go out for a long time. The experts at DryZone installed a new and stronger sump pump into the basement's mechanical room with a battery backup to give this homeowner peace of mind knowing their basement is safe and dry. 

After purchasing this home, this homeowner noticed their kitchen floor had significant sagging. They were unsure what to do as the next steps because they had a full basement underneath the kitchen. DryZone's design specialist heard the concern and planned a perfect solution for these homeowners. DryZone installed a strong support brace underneath the kitchen with a steel I-Beam to stabilize and strengthen the floor. 

This homeowner called DryZone with the intention of improving their crawl space. DryZone was able to help by encapsulating the crawl space with a CleanSpace liner and adding a Dehumidifier to control the environment. 

A flooding crawl space can lead to moisture damage in floorboards and microbial growth. For these homeowners, high humidity made insulation heavy and start to fall. Water was held in the brick foundation of the home, increasing the moisture in the air. These homeowners knew they needed a better solution. DryZone encapsulated the crawl space and added a proper drainage system to guide water into a sump pump.

This customer had lived in his home in Dover for 25 years. Over time, the sidewalk and steps leading to his front door started to sink as the earth settled.

This homeowner reached out to us to come and take a look at their crawlspace which they feared needed some renovating. After our team was able to inspect the area, we determined a hydrolink drainage system would be needed as well as the removal of some debris sitting in the space. We also noticed that the ground was very uneven so while we are down there we will be regrading the crawlspace, adding a new smart sump, wrapping the piers, installing drainage matting and installing a Green Turtl.

This homeowner gave us a call because they finally decided to clean up and renovate their crawlspace so that it is a clean and healthy space permanently. We will be installing cleanspace with drainage matting, lining the walls of the space with cleanspace, wrapping the bottom of the piers, installing a Sanidry Sedona to keep the humidity low and insulate the crawl space with 2" Foamax.

This homeowner reached out to us to install a Turtl entry way to their crawlspace. We went out, took a look prepped and installed with ease.

This homeowner gave us a call because they are getting ready to make renovations to their home. They want to ensure that the foundation is stable prior to making any changes to their summer kitchen and enclosed porch. 

Our team went out to take a look at the area to see how we could help. After looking at the area, we found that the best way to fix the issues would be to add a supplemental beam and smartjacks. There are two beams we will be adding smartjacks to in order to assist the additional jacks that we are installing to support the load bearing wall and porch. 

This homeowner reached out to us regarding their basement having water issues. They are planning to finish the basement in the future and want to ensure there are no water issues. Currently they have water coming into their basement in a few locations which need to be addressed prior to any work being done. 

After our team went out to assess the situation, first we recommended the installation of waterguard. Waterguard is designed to capture water seepage through walls and leaks along the wall/floor joint. Secondly, we will be installing a triplesafe sump pump system. This system will keep the basement dry in extreme conditions and even during power outages. Most sump pumps fail because of either a failed pump, a pump that can't handle high volumes of water or power failure. The TripleSafe assures protection from all three sump pump problems.

Lastly, we will be adding iceguard to prevent floods from clogged or frozen discharge line and installing cleanspace on the walls.

This homeowner reached out to us because they noticed their discharge line was not working properly. Our team went out and took a look and recommended adding and replacing some of the discharge. The new discharge line was tied into the current discharge 90 degrees into the crawlspace and then out of the front of the home. This will ensure water is leaving their basement properly from now on.

We received a call from this homeowner because they had decided it was time to fix their messy and wet crawlspace. Water filled the entirety of the space causing water stains all over the foundation walls, mold, and an overall unhealthy space. 

In order to help them, we installed a HydroLink Drainage System to feed water to a TripleSafe sump pump and CleanSpace Vapor Barriers. Using the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, it transforms the area into a clean, dry, attractive and energy efficient space.

The homeowner reached out to us because they noticed that the amount of water in their basement had drastically increased recently. At first it wasn't large amount of water, but it has started to cause flooding and they want it permanently fixed. When our team inspected the area, we noticed water pouring in through the foundation blocks and their current sump pump is having a hard time handling all of the water.

Our solution is simple, fully waterproof their basement using a few of our key waterproofing products. We will be installing WaterGuard, TripleSafe Sump Pump a Sani Dry Sedona & an Aspen Air Purifier. 

This homeowner is a previous customer of ours. We had originally gone out and installed WaterGuard within their basement, but after further inspection it needed to be redone. They are planning to finish their basement and before they start that project they want to be 100% certain that the water issues are fixed and will not return. 

What makes this job a little trickier than others is that the builder of the home made the basement too deep for their location. The homeowners know that because of this, water will always get into the basement but want to have a system in place to ensure it does no damage. 

This homeowner gave us a call because they noticed an external crack on their foundation. That caused them to give us a call to come out and take a look to see if there were damages on the inside part of their basement. We took out a decent sized piece of drywall on the opposite side of the external wall and noticed the foundation had a large crack running down it. We recommended repairing it with our FlexiSpan. FlexiSpan will not reopen or leak like mortar-based repairs.

The homeowner noticed a crack under their steps as well as water coming from around the pipe chase right below their crawlspace. Their crawlspace also is not encapsulated, so we will be adding CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to keep the area clean, dry and healthy.
