Extreme Makeover: Home Edition

In March of 2007, AquaGuard joined many other Basement Systems Waterproofers and CleanSpace Crawl Space Contractors from around the nation in Louisiana to help with the efforts of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition in a Westwego, LA home that was devastated by Hurricane Katrina. Brad and Laura Usea and their wonderful family had barely made it through with their lives. Their home was already decimated from the hurricane; and in February of 2007, they were devastated again - this time by a tornado.

Among those living with the family were Brad’s mom and his two brothers, Chris and Chad. The two brothers had made do with a trailer in the back yard and were seen as local heroes, due to their work as volunteer firefighters who rescued many people trapped in their homes during Katrina.

Aquaguard was working with Extreme Makeover as a part of Basement Systems, and along with Deltec Homes and a small army of volunteers from both near and far who were willing to help a family in need. Basement Systems and the CleanSpace network installed a variety of their award-winning products, including the CleanSpace crawl space vapor barrier, the SmartSump crawl space sump pump, the EverLast airtight crawl space door, the SaniDry CSB crawl space dehumidifier, and CleanSpace Crawl Space Drainage Matting. Lou Bemer, from the Basement Systems, Inc. world headquarters, spearheaded the event. He was joined by dealers like us from locations all over the country.

Basement Systems and CleanSpace dealers all over the world provide their customers with free basement waterproofing and crawl space sealing estimates, including a full-color 88-page book and written proposal.
