Our clients faced water infiltration issues due to a hill behind their house and a pool with a retaining wall. Heavy rains and rising water tables flooded the mulch beds, causing water to seep beneath the pool liner and into the basement. Unsure if the retaining wall needed replacement, they also had a leaking Egress Window.
To address the problem, we excavated around the foundation, removed the Egress Window, and constructed a new footing. After installing a frame for a new door, we applied a comprehensive waterproofing system and installed a Schedule 35 pipe for gravity discharge. Finally, we waterproofed the interior of the foundation.
Since completion, the homeowners haven't experienced any water penetration issues. They're pleased with the investment in their home and resolution of the problem.
From Collapse to Confidence A Garage and Foundation Saved - Warwick, NY
A few months ago, a concerned homeowner reached out to us with a serious issue. Their garage, which housed a car lift, was showing alarming signs of distress. The back wall had started leaning away from the home, and to their shock, the car lift had sunken and collapsed the garage floor. After repairing the floor, they hoped their troubles were over. But the back wall continued to lean, and they knew it was time to call in an expert.
Upon inspection, we discovered several cracks in the foundation, revealing a more significant issue: the home wasn’t just sliding down the hill—it was also settling.
To address these problems, we carefully installed seven Stabil-Loc push piers underneath the foundation—four along the back wall and three on the side. These piers allowed us to lift, level, and support the home, effectively stopping the settlement.
But our work didn’t stop there. To prevent further movement, we ground down the foundation’s surface and applied SRS carbon fiber strips in both bidirectional and unidirectional patterns, using epoxy to bond them securely. Finally, we parged the wall, protecting the foundation and carbon fiber strips from sunlight, ensuring the system would hold up over time.
Since the installation, the homeowner has noticed everything is level again. Most importantly, they’ve regained their peace of mind, knowing their home is secure and stable once more.
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.
Helping With Waterproofing and Structural Problems - Pine Bush, Ny
These homeowners were looking to transform their basement from the mess it was to a beautiful useable area. Because their home is located on a hill they have many issues with water coming into their home, as well as issues with the structural integrity of their foundation due to settlement from both the earth itself and water running down the pitch in their backyard.
in order to remedy the issues at hand that they were having and to bring their basement back to a beautiful usable space, we needed to install a multitude of our patented products. More specifically we installed our WaterGuard Sub-Floor Drainage System with our TripleSafe sump pump with an 80' gravity line to redirect any water that would come in throughout the year. We then installed our SmartJacks support system to undo the damage that had been created by the settlement of the home, as well the water damage that had created the foundation issues, along with this we parged the walls to remove all the water stains that had been created over the years and bring them back to their former glory. Finally, we ripped out their old windows that had been destroyed by mother nature and the settlement of their home and installed five custom windows.
Not even 24 hours after completing this project we received a tremendous amount of rain and before leaving the homeowners were so glad that they had the work done because with the amount of rain that we received their basement would usually be soaked, vs now their basement is bone dry.
Installing FlowGuard Perimeter Waterproofing Systems With BrightWall and A Triple Safe Sump Pump - Pine Bush, NY
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.
