Basement Systems of New York Before & After Photos

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.

The customer called us to resolve a water problem in their rock crawlspace.

We installed our Super Sump Pump and encapsulated their crawlspace as well. Now they are able to enjoy their dry crawlspace and live in a healthy home environment.

We installed a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System at the homeowners request.

When the homeowners came by to take a look, they were so pleased with the results they happily sat down and posed for the picture with our team.

In addition to building a new foundation for this Gardiner home, our Basement Systems crew poured a new, level concrete floor for the garage.
