Crawl Space Repair & Encapsulation Expert
Your home’s crawl space is often neglected. It’s usually too small to be seen as valuable and most people dread going into their crawl spaces because they are often damp and dark spaces that are so low they hurt your back. However, we feel like crawl spaces can be more valuable than that. We offer a variety of crawl space services that are guaranteed to turn your crawl space, regardless of the condition that it’s in, into an inviting and safe storage space. We can make any repairs that are needed and also encapsulate the space with a durable white plastic that brightens it up and creates a barrier from moisture.
A family in Plattsburgh, New York was getting ready for the arrival of their new baby. They were filled with joy and excitement, but also a feeling of "we need more space." They knew if they could somehow get the water to stop entering their basement there would an ample amount of extra space to use. The family decided the time had come to get help and permanently waterproof their basement, giving them all the extra space needed.
They started doing research, carefully examing every option and company they could find. They finally came to the conclusion that Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems would provide the best option for the services they required. They gave a call to 855-DRY-TIME and set up a Free Estimate with a highly trained and experienced System Design Specialist. The System Design Specialist inspected the basement and water issues, coming up with a plan to permanently waterproof the family basement and give the family a clean, dry, useable space.
Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems team of Installation Specialists went to work executing the System Design Specialists basement waterproofing plan.
First, Water Guard perimeter drainage was installed along the entire perimeter of the basement. The Water Guard is installed just underneath the perimeter edge of the basement floor. It includes a wall flange with 3/8" opening to collect water from the walls. The water guard will sit on top of the footing, away from the mud underneath your floor.
Next, the Water Guard System is tied into the sump pump. The basement always got a larger amount of water, so they went with the Triple Safe Sump Pump. The Triple Safe will be able to keep up with the water amount, keeping the basement dry. The Triple Safe comes with a primary pump, secondary pump, and a battery backup pump. The battery backup will make sure that, even in the event of a power outage, the basement will remain clean and dry.
Finally, the sump pump is connected to discharge lines that go out of the basement and connect to an Ice Guard and exterior discharge line. The water will pump out of the Triple Safe sump pump, out the discharge lines, to the Ice Guard, then down an exterior discharge line, away from the home.
The family now has the clean, dry, useable basement they need and will allow them to have one less thing to worry about with their baby on the way.
James owns an apartment building in Plattsburgh, New York and upon removing the floor in the living room in one of the units, that it had large cracks and was beginning to settle and become uneven. He also figured that there was a large void under the slab that was causing the settlement.
After a system design specialist visited the living space he proposed to use a PolyLevel injection beneath the concrete slab. This high-density polyurethane foam injection fills the void under the concrete slab and then stabilizes and lifts the sinking area to level the living space. The advantage of PolyLevel is that it's non-invasive, quick installation and cure time, accurate and clean lift, and adjustable for all load sizes. Lastly, he proposed a NexusPro joint sealant that is silicone-based and designed to provide long-lasting flexibility and to stand up to harsh weather conditions.
With these solutions in place, the living space is now level and will make laying new flooring in the unit much more feasible and will ensure the longevity of the foundation in the unit.
Call Northern Basement Systems at 855-DRY-TIME to see if PolyLevel is the best solution for your settling concrete!
