Before & After Photos

These homeowners contacted Basement Systems of New York because of two issues plaguing their home. More specifically a radon level of five point two in their home and damp, wet, musty crawl space, which was creating many issues upstairs, as well as affecting their health. Because of how well their project came out with our sister company Foamco they decided to contact us and see what could be done to improve the overall quality of their home.  

To take care of the issues they were experiencing, we installed our patented radon mitigation system along with an additional penetration point and our SmartDrain basin. We then proceeded to encapsulate their crawl space with our 20-millimeter thick CleanSpace vapor barrier. Once installed, we sprayed 2" of closed-cell spray foam to our CleanSpace vapor barrier. After laying our vapor barrier, we finished this project off with one of our patented Basementaire dehumidification systems. 

By applying our patented products to their home, we reduced their radon level from their previous five-point two to a two. While the main concern for these homeowners was their radon level, they were also concerned about the humidity, dampness, and mustiness throughout their home, by encapsulating their crawl space and installing our dehumidification system, we were able to remediate the problem at hand. In doing so, we were able to make their home more comfortable. Overall these homeowners were so glad that they had both a comfortable home again, as well as peace of mind restored to them.  

Our team was tasked with getting this discharge line out of the home after a complete waterproofing system was put in place. The best path for the discharge line was through the driveway. Our crew installed the discharge and put everything back together better than new, and now they have a dry basement. This is not a before and after but it is a durring and after, Great work team!!

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.

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

The Turtle Hatch, is perfect for creating a secure access into your crawl space. It is efficient, aesthetically pleasing, and most of all safer. This system was installed in Eldred, New York.

These homeowners called Basement Systems of New York to evaluate their block foundation to see why they were continually taking on water in their basement even though they supposedly had a french drain installed.

Upon our Specialist finishing his inspection he noted that the reason why they were having issues with water penetrating their home was twofold. Specifically that they were experiencing hydrostatic pressure coming up through the floor of their basement, as well as the french drain that had been installed by a previous company was not installed properly and was not doing it job.

To take care of the issues at hand we started by removing the perimeter of their concrete slab to make way for our WaterGuard below slab waterproofing system with laterals with our SuperSump Plus sump pump system. After completing this we then moved on to installing four of our SmartJack support systems with new footings to properly support their sinking home. We then proceeded to apply drain mat to the floor and our CleanSpace vapor barrier to their walls before pouring our new slab. Finally to finish their basement off once our concrete fully dried we installed our Basementaire dehumidification system.

From start to finish these homeowners could not believe the quality of workmanship as well the level of professionalism they received throughout their project. Since installing our waterproofing system they have not experienced any water in their home, a reduction in health issues, but more importantly than anything to them peace of mind.
