Before & After Photos

When Ryan bought his home five years ago, the home inspector gave him a heads-up: “Within the next ten years, you'll need to address the temporary supports holding up the structure.”
At the time, it didn’t seem urgent. The screw jacks had done their job—until recently.

One weekend, while working in his basement, Ryan felt it. The floor shifted slightly underfoot, and that lingering comment from the inspector echoed in his mind. He knew the time had come. After five years, it was no longer something he could ignore—his home needed real support.

To fix the problem, we started by jackhammering the basement floor to make room for our precast concrete footings. Once those were set, we temporarily supported the home to safely remove the old screw jacks and replace them with our engineered SmartJack system. Each SmartJack was topped with a solid metal plate to provide long-term, reliable support.

Because Ryan’s floor joists were in decent shape—just cracked, not rotted—we didn’t need to fully sister them. Instead, we cut custom three-foot sections of 2x8 lumber, scabbing each joist with precise reinforcement to restore their strength without overbuilding.

Today, Ryan’s home stands solid. No more worrying if the floor will dip. No more wondering if the house is holding on by a thread.
Thanks to our proven systems and patented products, Ryan can finally rest easy in a home that feels safe, stable, and built to last.

Our crews replaced the foundation that was no longer able to safely support this Gardiner home. The blocks were laid, then we applied a waterproofing coating and liner to help water drain away from the home.

This home's foundation was unsafe and needed to be rebuilt. We temporarily rasied up the house on our Foundation Supportworks Piers to make it safe to work under the home. Our owner, Dale Giraudin, personally came to the job site and built the new wall himself! 

This home in Gardiner, NY needed a new foundation built and a gravity drainage line installed. Our installers take great care  when working with heavy machinery around the home, and do their best to clean up as much as possible!

25 years ago we installed our patented CleanSpace throughout the entirety of this home's crawl space. Now 25 years later they called us back to take care of their foundation and humidity issues that they were having.

The main issue that they had called us about originally was for their foundation and humidity issues, but to fix the problems at hand we had to remove a majority of the work we had done 25 years ago and replace it to remove the old supports, and install our new support systems. In doing so all of the issues they were having would be alleviated and would make this home like new.

For us to take care of the foundation issues we started by supporting the home to pull out and replace all of their block supports throughout the entire crawl space, we then strategically installed a total of 30 SmartJacks throughout the crawl space, all of which would tie directly into the main girder and our newly installed steel i-beam. We then removed their old inefficient sump pump system and installed our SmartSump with a 35-foot discharge line.

After installing our sump pump system we then installed our drain matting underneath our new CleanSpace. Because in the back section of the crawl space we did not need to remove and replace our old CleanSpace we only laid it throughout the main section and the right section of their crawl space past the chimney. Once this was completed we installed our Everlast door in their existing basement entryway so they could have full access to check on things, as well as store any belongings that they would like to in their new space.

Finally, before completing our project, we installed our patented BasementAire Dehumidification system, this system will help to keep the humidity in their crawl space and home as low as possible due to its proprietary hourly air sampling system. Overall the homeowner could not have been more ecstatic about the outcome, but more importantly to them that they were able to regain peace of mind and did not have to worry every night when they went to sleep if their home was going to fall over.
