These homeowners contacted Basement Systems of New York because they noticed throughout the entirety of their home their floors sagged and had a bounce to them. This was due in part to condensation and moisture attacking their wood, this ultimately rotted out all their floor joists and main girder. 

To take care of the issue throughout the entire home we had to perform our work on three separate areas in their ginormous crawl space. These areas for our Installation Specialists were broken down into the room closest to the driveway, the middle room, and the room with the crawl space entrance. In doing this we made the project extremely decipherable to our foreman, as well allowed our team to tackle the most difficult areas first.

To take care of the issues in the room closest to the driveway we had to dig down several feet in order to establish our area to install our pre-cast footings. These pre-cast footings would eventually be the supports for our SmartJack support systems with steel i-beams. Once their new sports were installed we then began to sister all of their floor joists. After these steps were completed we then dug down in front of their damaged wall and formed a new stepped footing, which we pinned rebar into and then poured a new wall.

After completing this room we moved onto the middle room. Here we began establishing the areas for our pre-cast footings. We then proceeded to install our SmartJack support systems with steel i-beams. Once this was done we then sistered all of their floor joists. Finally, before finishing this area off we removed their old main girder and replaced it with a brand new quadruple 2x10 main girder. 

Finally, we worked on the area of their crawl space that contained the entrance. Here we installed four SmartJack support systems with steel i-beams, which ran from the entryway to the front of their new main girder. We then sistered twenty-three of their floor joists. 

Since implementing these systems the structural integrity of this home and its floors home have returned to the status they were in when the home was originally purchased over thirty years ago.

Concrete Leveling & Concrete Crack Repair

The sunken and cracked concrete around your Chichester home is both an eyesore and a safety hazard. Whether you've experienced an uneven patio or cracked driveway, the problem is likely to get worse. Luckily, we offer innovative solutions!

To level and lift sinking concrete, our experts use PolyLevel, a superior polyurethane foam. Here's how it works: small holes are drilled in the concrete, the foam is injected and the expanding foam lifts the concrete. The majority of contractors you call will recommend mudjacking instead of foam. However, mudjacking is heavier, requires larger holes in the concrete and does not last as long as PolyLevel

For cracked concrete repair, we offer NexusPro, an ultra-flexible concrete sealant that repairs cracks and joints. NexusPro can be applied year-round and is resistant to extreme weather patterns, temperature fluctuations, and more, ensuring long-lasting results.

We Fix
  • Cracked Driveways
  • Uneven Patios
  • Sinking Sidewalks      

  • Uneven Concrete
  • Sunken Pool Decks
  • Highway & Commercial Issues

Project Location: Chichester, NY
Multiple issues with crawlspace and cinderblock surrounding it, including cracks, separation, and displacement of cinderblocks, settling of supports under house, inadequate ventilation and likely excessive dampness in crawlspace.
Project Location: Chichester, NY
My 24"X48" garage slab poured in 2005 has dropped and cracked on the side where I park my car. The side where I have a shop setup looks fine. The slab was cut in half (24X24) right after the initial pour.
Project Location: Chichester, NY
Standing water was found on top of a moister barrier in a crawl space following heavy rain in the area over the previous week. Unclear if a recurring problem. Moisture barrier did not appear to be properly installed. Would like to evaluate if there is mold in the crawl space.
Project Location: Chichester, NY
I have an old cottage on piers, half of the foundation is laid stone and other half is cinder blocks, have had some structural repairs/support added over the years but need to have a good vapor barrier installed on the dirt/ground. Has closed cell spray foam in the floor joists. Most of the crawlspace is accessible with a few feet but there is one corner where the access is limited to about a foot/it's tight. Curious if this is something you all can do. Thank you! Andy.
