Basement Systems of New York Before & After Photos

These homeowners wanted to improve the quality of their backyard. Because of the many projects that we had completed for other clients we were contacted to help improve the curb appeal of their backyard.

This homeowner just recently purchased this home and was gutting it. During their inspection period, they were made aware that they were going to need to waterproof their basement as it had a significant water issue. Because of this, they contacted us to see what could be done in order to remedy the water issue they were having, as well as transform their basement into a beautiful usable space.

In order to remedy the problem at hand as well as accomplish the task of transforming their basement, we implemented four different systems which tied directly into each other. The systems that we installed were our patented FlowGuard waterproofing perimeter system along with Brightwall, these two systems were then tied directly into our TripleSafe sump pump system with a discharge line out to daylight. By implementing these systems together we are able to catch any and all water that would/can penetrate their home and divert it to their new sump pump, all while keeping their basement bright and beautiful. 

Since installing these systems the homeowners have noticed an overall improvement in their quality of life, but more importantly to them, they now have a beautiful brand new basement that they can use for storage space, a play place, and entertaining space. They could not have been more thrilled with how the final product came out.  

This homeowner was referred to us by a previous client. Because of where they live, they never had an issue with water penetrating their home. That is until hurricane Ida. During Hurricane Ida, seven inches of water flooded their basement. Since then every time there is a significant amount of rain, water comes up from the floor. Because of the issue and our client's referral, they contacted Basement Systems Of New York to see how we could take care of the issue.

To take care of the issue, we started by creating the trench for our waterproofing system around the entire perimeter of the basement. We then began to fill it with our gravel and perforated pipe before covering everything with a layer of gravel and our trenchdrain. Once covered we applied our FlowGuard waterproofing system on top of everything and tied the system into our patented TripleSafe sump pump system.

Since installing our patented waterproofing system, they have not seen any water in their home. For them, this was the biggest concern because they were tired of getting up in the middle of the night to stay ahead of water coming into their home, as well as the annoyance of having water in their home. By cutting down the wall and supporting their home we could increase the overall space they had in their home. They could not be happier with how their project turned out, but more importantly than anything, they are grateful to have peace of mind restored.
