Basement Systems of New York believes that having the right windows in your basement is a big factor in keeping your basement dry. Not only is it an improvement in an aesthetic way but more importantly, it is part of an entire system that will keep your basement dry all the time. In this case, we replaced a basement window with a beautiful window well.
This homeowner's main concerns were that their crawl space needed to be waterproofed, as well that their foundation had issues as they noticed that their floor was slopping. Because of these two reasons, the homeowner contacted us to perform a No-Contact Consultation to provide them with a proposal of solutions.
Because of the issues going on in their home we replaced multiple supports in the crawl space with our SmartJacks with pre-cast footings system to bring their home's floor back to true. Next, we closed the thermal envelope of the crawl space by installing CleanSpace on both the floor and walls to keep the dampness and humidity out of both the crawl space and the entirety of their home. Finally, we installed a crack monitor on any and all cracks that were on the foundation to close them up and to keep an eye on them to determine if they would become bigger or stay constant.
Since installing this multi-tiered system their home has become much more comfortable, they have gained a usable and brighter space, finally, they were able to have a home that did not have structural issues that they had to worry about regardless of the activity that they were performing.
Our Basement Systems team came to the rescue when flooding disrupted a families life. We installed and implemented multiple systems to prevent this from ever happening again.
After purchasing this beautiful new home in Cold Spring, Ny the new homeowner noticed that there were several problems that were extremely noticeable with the home's basement, as well as its foundation. They contacted Basement Systems of New York to see how they could rectify the situation at hand.
Because they are located right next to the river we could not warranty our complete drainage system against all rain, but only guarantee that their home would be waterproofed against average and mild storms. In order to guarantee this we had to install a multi-piece system that consisted of us digging down and installing footings in front of their compromised wall and laying a new block wall, a perimeter drainage system with a lateral on the interior wall, our SuperSump Plus sump pump, a new concrete floor, CleanSpace along their walls, and finally our SaniDry XP dehumidifier.
Since completing this project the homeowner has not seen any water in his home, as well feels a million times more secure with now having a properly supported home. As well they could not be more than ecstatic with the final product.
In addition to installing a two system waterproofing system to the basement and apartment, we did an exterior dig to install new footing drains & applied a waterproof coating to the walls with proper drainwall
