Before & After Photos

Many years ago we installed a partial system along with one of our patented sump pumps and dehumidification systems along the backside of this homeowner's basement. Since installing our partial system in their basement the homeowners have not noticed a drop of water in that area. Fast forward several years these homeowners contacted us again to help tackle the water issue, they were having in another part of their basement. To tackle the problem at hand we extended our waterproofing system around the perimeter of the second space in their basement. 

This homeowner contacted Basement Systems of New York because he was having a major water problem in his basement, more specifically water was coming up through the center of their slab via hydrostatic pressure and it would pool, as well along the entirety of their basement they had an issue with water coming in at the wall-floor joints. The homeowner was concerned about this for the obvious reasons, but also because they use their basement for both entertaining and storage.

In order to remediate the problem at hand, we installed 144 feet of our patented sub-slab waterproofing system, FlowGuard which we then connected to a 50 foot lateral that ran through the center of their slab. We then installed CleanSpace along the entirety of their basement walls, which was tied into our TripleSafe sump pump system. Finally, we installed our Basementaire dehumidifier to both rid and protect their basement and home from any water vapor that would/could occur due to humidity. 

On our last day of installation, we were slated for a huge snowstorm and the homeowner was jonesing for the storm to come so he could test his new system after the snow melted. It has now been a week since the storm and the installation and the snow is melting quite quickly in his neighborhood, but not an ounce of water has penetrated his home, where before water would have been gushing in.  

After moving up from Brooklyn four years ago these homeowners thought all was well with their home, but after two major storms, they quickly realized that their home was vulnerable to water, both when it rained and snowed. Because of the headaches that they endured both during and after these two events, they said enough is enough and gave Basement Systems of New York a call to see how we could keep their home dry. 

To take care of the water issues that they were dealing with we had to install several of our patented systems. We started by digging our trench around the perimeter of their basement. We as well installed two laterals on each side of their basement. These trenches would eventually be filled with gravel and perforated pipe. This piping system is the base for our patented waterproofing system, FlowGuard, which will be installed on the perimeter of the basement walls and will divert all water to our piping and then our sump pump.

Once our trench and laterals were created and filled we proceeded to apply our vapor barrier, CleanSpace to the entirety of their basement walls. By applying a vapor barrier to their basement walls, we were able to change the overall environment of their home. 

After installing our vapor barrier, we dug for our discharge lines outside their home. Once established, we installed our TripleSafe sump pump with a battery backup. 

Finally, we installed our BasementAire dehumidification system and attached our condensate pump to drain into our TripleSafe sump pump. This created a system that these homeowners could truly set and forget. 

Since installing these systems these homeowners have not seen an ounce of water in their homes whether it be from rain or snow. They could not be any happier with how their project turned out, but more importantly that they do not have to worry about cleaning up their basement ever again as well as having peace of mind restored to them.

These homeowners purchased this home in November 2022. After purchasing, they decided to do a bunch of renovations. After living in their home for a while, they realized that they had an issue with water coming into their home. It was coming through their crawl space. When it rained, water would overflow and their crawl space and basement flooded. 

 Because of the issues at hand, they decided to call an experts and find out exactly what was going on in their home and how to fix the issue at hand.  

Upon our Specialist inspections, he realized that to take care of the problems, we needed to attack this with a three-part system. This system is comprised of our FlowGuard waterproofing system, two separate SuperSump Plus sump pumps, and our SmarJack system for their floors and foundation. 

To install the systems, we first created a trench around the perimeter of the crawl space. We then proceeded to clean it out. Once it was clean, we installed gravel and perforated piping, which we connected directly to our sump pumps. After this we applied our FlowGuard system against the walls of the crawl space. Once done, we started digging out strategic spots in their crawl space for our team to pour poured footings before installing our SmartJack systems. Finally, before leaving, we installed our Basementaire dehumidification system. 

Since completing their project, these homeowners have not had to worry about cleaning up water from their two spaces after a rain storm. As well they have not noticed any nasty smells upstairs anymore. Finally, their floors are as back to level as possible. They could not be any happier with how their project turned out. They are so glad that they decided to invest in their home. 

Many homeowners are concerend about the discharge line messing up the aesthetics of their yard. This homeowner was no different, however our crew did a masterful job installing the discharge line leaving the yard without making a mess in the yard.
