Basement Waterproofing in Plattsburgh, New York | Matt Clark Northern Basement Systems
Challenge
A homeowner in Plattsburgh, New York, was dealing with ongoing moisture along the basement walls, leaving the space damp and unreliable during periods of heavy rain. Over time, the conditions made the basement less usable and raised concerns about long-term water management. During our inspection, we found that moisture was entering through the foundation walls and there was no dependable system in place to properly collect and remove water. Without a complete solution, the basement remained vulnerable to continued intrusion and seasonal changes.
Solution
To address both the wall moisture and water control, we installed a full waterproofing system designed for long-term performance:
• CleanSpace® Wall System – Installed along the basement walls to create a continuous vapor barrier, helping to block moisture and improve the overall appearance of the space
• TripleSafe® Sump Pump System – Installed to provide reliable water removal with multiple levels of protection, including backup support during power outages
• IceGuard® Discharge Line System – Installed on the exterior to help prevent freezing and backups during cold Plattsburgh winters
• LawnScape™ Outlet – Installed to allow water to discharge safely away from the home
The basement is now cleaner, brighter, and better protected against moisture intrusion. Water is effectively managed and directed away from the home, creating a more stable and dependable environment. By combining a wall vapor barrier with a high-performance sump pump and discharge system, this Plattsburgh, New York basement was transformed into a controlled and reliable space. The homeowner can now feel confident their basement is protected throughout the year.
