Jesse Eldred from Northern Basement Systems

Like most Churches, this Church in Alstead, New Hampshire had events and gatherings.  The majority of this Church's events took place in a nice finished basement.  Over the years the church had to move or cancel events due to water in the basement.  They had a sump pump, but it wouldn't keep up with the large amount of water entering.  This would lead to endless hours of removing the water by additional portable pumps and shop vacuums.  Tired of the hassle, the good people at the church reached out to the Water Proofing Experts at Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems.  After a FREE ESTIMATE, one of Matt's System Design Specialist set forth a plan to permanently water proof the church basement.  The amount of water entering the basement and the size of the basement was so large that this job would call for three TripleSafe Sump Pumps, a WaterGuard System, and to control the humidity a Sanidry XP.  The basement is now nice and dry, ready to host future events.

To make the basement in Springfield, Vermont permanently dry Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems installed a Full Perimeter WaterGuard System, a CleanSpace Wall System, and completed the project with a SuperSump Pump.

The owners of a very large building in South Burlington, VT were in serious trouble.  Their building had started to sink and knew they needed help.  They did their research and came to the conclusion that Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems was far and beyond the most reputable and reliable company for the job.  Northern Basement Systems did an inspection and found that the foundation had in fact sunk 3 1/4    In the before picture you can see where there is a massive crack in the floor.  The team dug up the floor and installed a State of the Art Push Peir.  This will allow help support the column of the building.

Push Piers are made of steel and are driven very far into the ground until it hits stable soil or bedrock.  The push piers on this job were used in both the interior and exterior of the building to lift it back to the original position.  The team removed soil from around the exterior walls then used a heavy-duty steel bracket that is installed below and against the building foundation's footing.  Next, steel piers are driven hydraulically through the bracket into the stable soil.  The weight of the building is transferred through the piers to competent soil.  Then our team lifted the building back to a level state, backfilled the soil, and now the building is permanently stabilized.

The homeowners in Burlington, Vermont started to notice over the years that cracks had developed throughout the house in different areas.  In some places, the molding had completely separated from the ceiling.  This made them very concerned with what was happening to their home.  Through diligent research, they found that Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems was by far the most reputable and reliable company to service them.

  After an inspection from one of Northern Basements System Design Specialist and an Engineer, they found that the house had in fact sunk up to 1 3/4 inches in some places on the foundation.  To fix the problem the team installed 119 Slab piers and poly level raising the floor back to a level position.  When the team finished raising the slab you could clearly see that the molding had sealed up tight to the ceiling.

A nasty old crawl space can give homeowners many issues.  The crawl space, located in downtown Montpelier, Vermont was having a few of them.  The owner expressed concern of bad odors coming from the crawlspace and very cold, drafty floors.  Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems went in and installed a Crawlspace Encapsulation System.  This will take care of bad odors and put an end to the cold drafty floors. 

The customer had a very deteriorated concrete slab.  Matt Clark's team of experts void filled the slab.  Put delta down and put a full perimeter Water Guard, a TripleSafe Pump System, and a dehumidifier.  Next, they installed a Vapor Barrier/Clean Space Wall.  Then they installed a brand new concrete floor and insulated the rig joists

The homeowner called with a concern about the moisture in the basement that was moving its way up into the house. We installed a SmartDrain, a CleanSpace crawlspace encapsulation system with drainage matting under the liner, and lastly installed a SaniDry unit to limit moisture in the crawlspace.
