Using Everbrace Wall System To Save a Hones Failing Foundation Walls - Poughkeepsie, NY

When this homeowner noticed signs of foundation trouble, they turned to us for help after thorough online research. Our consultation with a Design Specialist revealed a significant deflection in their wall, typically requiring extensive rebuilding. Fortunately, our company offers an innovative solution—the Everbrace Wall System—avoiding the need for wall replacement.

We began by installing necessary blocking in the floor joists for our top bracket. Next, we carefully cut concrete to create footings for our PowerBrace systems, applying CleanSpace as a vapor barrier. Sheet metal was then hung to relieve weight from the foundation wall. PowerBraces were installed, and footings were filled with concrete. Finally, we injected PolyLevel through the sheet metal, creating balanced pressure for stable support.

Thanks to our approach, the foundation issues were resolved without disruptive wall replacement, restoring both structural integrity and peace of mind for the homeowners.

Supporting A Home With PowerBraces And SmartJacks - Tivoli, NY

After living in their new home for six months, these new homeowners realized that there were a few serious issues with their home. More specifically these issues pertained to the structural integrity of their home, as well as water penetrating their home. Because of these issues, they decided to contact Basement Systems of New York to see how we could remediate the issues at hand. 

 

By installing our patented systems we will be able to resolve both the direct and indirect effects of the water issues they are dealing with. More importantly, we will be able to restore both structural integrity back to this home and instill peace of mind for the homeowners. 

 

We started by jackhammering their entire concrete slab and removing it. After removing the old concrete slab, we dug down several inches to establish our area for our pre-cast footings. Once all our footing were at the proper depth we laid our pre-cast footings and installed our SmartJack foundation support systems. 

 

Once we installed our SmartJack systems, we moved on to cutting both our drain mat and CleanSpace to the proper dimensions before applying them to the basement walls. After completing the installation of our drain mat and CleanSpace. We then applied our PowerBraces with top lever brackets to the walls.

 

After applying our PowerBraces with top lever brackets we installed our WaterGuard waterproofing system around the perimeter of the basement, which we tied into our TripleSafe sump pump system with an external discharge line. Finally, we completed this project by pouring a new concrete slab.  

 

Since completing this project, the homeowners have noticed a tremendous difference in the structural integrity of their homes. As well they now have a functional and usable space that is not affecting the comfort levels of their home due to water. They could not have been any happier with how their project came out.

Comprehensive Solutions for Basement Water Issues and Structural Problems: Restoring Peace of Mind - Tyler Hill, PA

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.

  6.  
  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
