Comprehensive Solutions for Basement Water Issues and Structural Problems: Restoring Peace of Mind - Tyler Hill, PA

This homeowner contacted us due to water issues in their basement and structural problems in both the basement and crawl space. To address these concerns, we implemented a comprehensive solution:

  1. Water Intrusion: We tackled water intrusion caused by hydrostatic pressure by installing our FlowGuard waterproofing system along the basement's perimeter. This system was seamlessly connected to our lateral system, reducing the water's path to our SuperSump equipped with laterals.

  2.  
  3. Crawl Space Division: To prevent mud, sand, dirt, and debris from interfering with the waterproofing system, we injected our PolyLevel product behind the wall separating the crawl space and basement. This critical step ensured the proper functioning of the waterproofing system.

  4.  
  5. Structural Restoration: To rectify structural issues, we temporarily supported the house and replaced improperly installed screw jacks. We installed a new main girder and strengthened the deteriorating floor joists. The installation of our SmartJack system further enhanced the home's structural integrity, as it was positioned with precise spacing.

  6.  
  7. Crawl Space Enhancement: As a final touch, we enhanced the crawl space by applying a drain mat and CleanSpace. Despite the already dry nature of the crawl space with no water issues, this encapsulation system ensures dust-free and properly conditioned crawl space and subsequently improved air quality throughout the home.

The homeowners expressed their utmost satisfaction with the project's results. They are particularly relieved that their peace of mind has been restored and are pleased with their decision to invest in the long-term well-being of their home

Waterproofing A Home With A Concrete Block Foundation Before The Homeowners Finished Their Basement - Pine Island, NY

These homeowners contacted Basement Systems of New York to see how we could remedy the water problem that they have been dealing with for several years. Because of how wet 2021, they continued receiving water in their basement in the obvious spots that they always saw. They also saw their basement take on water on their back wall, something that they had never seen till now. Once this new water problem emerged, they said enough is enough and decided to take care of the issue at hand. 

To take care of the water issue plaguing this basement, we started by creating a trench around the entire perimeter of their basement with two laterals along the front and back of the basement to mitigate hydrostatic pressure. Once everything was dug out we started to lay our perforated pipe and cover it with gravel through the entirety of our trench and laterals. This piping will eventually tie into our sump pump and direct any water caught by our system out of the home.

Next, we drilled our weep holes on the bottom of their block foundation. These weep holes allow us to redirect water that is entering their home to our waterproofing system. After drilling our weep holes throughout the perimeter of their foundation, we installed our DryTrak and FlowGuard waterproofing system before applying concrete to the trench we created and returning the basement to its former glory before we started their project.

Since completing this project, these homeowners have not seen any water in their basement, as well they were able to finish their basement. More importantly, than anything to the peace of mind had been restored to them.

Foundation Rescue Waterproofing and Reinforcement Success for Homeowners - Warwick, NY

We were recommended to these homeowners by a contractor who identified a significant issue with their Monolithic foundation leading to water seepage. The seepage resulted in standing water during heavy rainstorms and spring melts, prompting the homeowners to address the problem before refinishing their basement.

 

The challenge was not only water penetration but also a bowing right wall due to the water-related pressure from the earth. Despite having received three other proposals, the homeowners chose us over a company that misunderstood the comprehensive scope of the necessary work. To tackle the water penetration, our first step involved creating a trench for a perforated pipe. Subsequently, we dug a basin for our SuperSump Plus, equipped with a 1/3 horsepower Zoeller pump. Grinding the walls allowed us to install CarbonArmor foundation reinforcement strips. We then set up piping in the trench, connecting it to the sump pump, reconcreted over it, and applied our DryTrak waterproofing system to the wall-floor joint.

 

The result? All the issues affecting their home have been successfully resolved. Thanks to our systems, the homeowners can now proceed with finishing their basement, providing them with both functional space and peace of mind.
