Basement Systems of New York Before & After Photos

Our team was called upon to address the sinking and discoloration issues of the pool deck. To rectify the problem, we employed a highly effective solution. Firstly, we carefully drilled 5/8th pilot holes around the entire pool deck, reaching the depths of the voids. We filled these voids using our advanced PolyLevel technology, effectively lifting, leveling, and supporting the deck. This meticulous process ensured that the deck was once again level, eliminating tripping hazards. Following the successful leveling process, we focused on revitalizing the appearance of the concrete. Our environmentally safe cleaner was applied to prepare the surface, and a thorough power washing was conducted to remove dirt, grime, and stains. Once the deck was clean and ready, we expertly applied our walnut color stain, Deco Shield. This transformative application restored the deck's aesthetic appeal and harmonized its appearance with the homeowner's residence, fence, and surrounding areas. The homeowners were thrilled with the results we achieved. They expressed their satisfaction with removing tripping hazards and ensuring the safety of their pool area. Additionally, they were delighted with the remarkable transformation of their pool deck, giving it the appearance of a brand-new pool that seamlessly blended with their home. The professionalism and expertise exhibited by our skilled crews left a lasting impression on the homeowners, who were grateful to have chosen us for this project.

These homeowners contacted Basement Systems of New York to see what could be done to help make their pool deck more functional, as well as remove the hazard and eyesores that had occurred due to poor soil conditions and water drainage issues. 

To address the problem at hand, we drilled our 5/8th pilot holes and filled the void below the deck till it was level. By doing this we were able to bring the pool deck back to level, remove the hazard and eyesores, and address the poor soil condition and drainage issue that was plaguing their deck. 

A concerned homeowner reached out to us due to persistent water infiltration issues in their barn. The barn's floor was severely deteriorated, lacking proper slope for water drainage, and offering insufficient storage accessibility. To address these problems effectively, we embarked on a comprehensive restoration project. Here's how we tackled it:

1. Creating Proper Drainage: We began by excavating the areas in front of the barn doors to establish the required slope for efficient water management and better utilization of the space.

2.  

3. Forming the Foundation: After achieving the correct depth, we meticulously constructed 2x10 wooden forms to shape the concrete foundation. These forms served as the framework for our concrete work.

4.  

5. Enhancing Structural Integrity: Ensuring long-term stability and strength, we strategically placed both vertical and horizontal rebar, providing the necessary structural support for the concrete slabs.

6.  

7. Pouring New Slabs: With our preparations complete, we proceeded to pour two fresh concrete slabs—one outside the front barn doors and one outside the back barn doors. These slabs would be instrumental in resolving the water infiltration issue.

8.  

9. Barn-Wide Restoration: Our efforts extended to pouring a new concrete slab throughout the entire barn, revitalizing the entire space.

Not only is it aesthetically pleasing, but it is also now a fully functional space, free from the constant threat of water damage. The homeowners are delighted with their investment in restoring the barn's functionality and appearance.

Our success in transforming this barn demonstrates the importance of addressing foundational issues to create a safe, functional, and visually appealing space. If you're facing similar challenges with your property, don't hesitate to reach out to us. We're here to help you restore and enhance your living spaces.

After living in their home for several months these homeowners realized that they were having issues with their foundation, as well as water and humidity in their home. Because of these reasons, they contacted Basement Systems of New York to see what could be done in order to take care of the issues at hand. 

In order to fix the problems that they were having we had to install several different systems that would tie into one cohesive unit. The systems that we ended up using to make this home more comfortable were CleanSpace, WaterGuard, Drainage Matting, and a new slab. By implementing these different systems in their home we have been able to improve the overall health of their home.

Since installing our systems the homeowner has noticed nothing but a sense of relief that they now have a comfortable home that they never want to leave. 

When Ryan bought his home five years ago, the home inspector gave him a heads-up: “Within the next ten years, you'll need to address the temporary supports holding up the structure.”
At the time, it didn’t seem urgent. The screw jacks had done their job—until recently.

One weekend, while working in his basement, Ryan felt it. The floor shifted slightly underfoot, and that lingering comment from the inspector echoed in his mind. He knew the time had come. After five years, it was no longer something he could ignore—his home needed real support.

To fix the problem, we started by jackhammering the basement floor to make room for our precast concrete footings. Once those were set, we temporarily supported the home to safely remove the old screw jacks and replace them with our engineered SmartJack system. Each SmartJack was topped with a solid metal plate to provide long-term, reliable support.

Because Ryan’s floor joists were in decent shape—just cracked, not rotted—we didn’t need to fully sister them. Instead, we cut custom three-foot sections of 2x8 lumber, scabbing each joist with precise reinforcement to restore their strength without overbuilding.

Today, Ryan’s home stands solid. No more worrying if the floor will dip. No more wondering if the house is holding on by a thread.
Thanks to our proven systems and patented products, Ryan can finally rest easy in a home that feels safe, stable, and built to last.
