Basement Systems of New York is proud to be apart of the Downtown Revitalization Initiative, Rail Trail Commons in downtown Middletown, NY. We were contracted to work on this project due to our patented products, as well our quality of work. More importantly we were chosen to do the work because the town of Middletown knows that our proudcts will keep them dry. Our installation crew installed our patented FlowGuard and CleanSpace systems, in addition they ran perferated piping from the sump pump to the storm drain to rid the building of any and all water collection.
Basement Systems of New York was contacted to give this homeowner's walkway a fresh face. Over the many years of the walkway being there, it had sunk a great deal. We were able to rectify this tripping hazard and eyesore for them with the help of PolyLevel. By drilling several pilot holes we were able filled the area that had sunken down with PolyLevel to make it flush again, but more importantly, give the homeowner peace of mind.
These homeowners were transforming their old unused space into a living area for a family member that has severe health issues. They are transforming it to give their family member the ability to regain some control over their life, as well as independence. More importantly, they were transforming the space so that they did not have to worry about their family member.
In order for the space to be converted into a livable area, we had to pour a new slab with rebar reinforcements, as well as implement our Smartjacks system in order to stop water from coming up through the floor due to hydrostatic pressure, as well to make the building structurally sound.
Because these systems were implemented and they have been able to move their family member into the new space the entire home, as well the members in it have been able to have a sigh of relief.
This homeowner noticed that he was having issues with his foundation being extremely wet, as well as water coming through at the corners of his basement walls, because of these two issues he contacted Basement Systems of New York to see what could be done to help take care of his water issue.
In order to take care of the issues at hand for this homeowner we excavate along the back and right side of their home in order to get to their current footing drains, we then installed a new footing drain system with triple wall 4" perforated pipe. We then sprayed their foundation with our GMX waterproofing coating with drain board and finally rough backfilled the trench that we had created in order to install their new footing drain system.
Since installing our systems on the back and right side of their home they have noticed that their home is so much more comfortable, as well as a dry foundation which has allowed their foundation to remain structurally sound.
