Eric B. of Brattleboro, VT did not frequent his basement. The floor was unfinished and overall it was not somewhere he wanted to be.

Todd and Becca F. of Brattleboro, VT worried that the humidity in their basement could lead to damage and decay. They did not want to risk exposing their entire home to mold or a weakened structure. They couple searched online for basement dehumidifiers and came across the website for Matt Clark’s Northern Basement Systems, which had information about the SaniDry dehumidifier and their basement repair services. Todd and Becca felt that the company would be a good fit and they scheduled a free inspection with basement professional Nicholas Farnham.

Fortunately for the homeowners, a powerful dehumidifier was all they needed to rid the air of moisture. But because their basement was divided into two separate parts, they also required a way to filter the air in both rooms. Northern Basements team made that possible. They placed a SaniDry XP dehumidifier in one of the rooms and also installed a duct kit between the unit and the other area of the basement.

Todd and Becca’s split basement is now in optimal condition! The dehumidifier protects their whole home by keeping mold and rot at bay. The team at Matt Clark’s Northern Basement Systems was able to help the local homeowners improve the health of their basement!

A Bellows Falls, Vermont homeowner contacted Northern Basement Systems due to concerns around a failing wall attached to the home foundation and settling concrete in the breezeway. Our system design specialist visited the home to get a better understanding of the home and the concerns, then provided the homeowners with a FREE ESTIMATE and project proposal. He proposed to install two Geo-Lock Anchors to stabilize the wall and prevent it from continuing to lean and cause further damage. Wall anchors are attached to the wall and then extend into hard-packed soil to brace the wall. These wall anchors are made of galvanized steel for a long-lasting solution. 

Additionally, the specialist recommended PolyLevel Injection Foam to lift and level the concrete slab in the breezeway area. This PolyLevel Injection Foam is a polyurethane foam that is injected under the concrete slab and expands to fill the gaps and raises and stabilizes the concrete slab.

With these products installed the wall and floor have been stabilized for years to come! Call 855-DRY-TIME to get a FREE ESTIMATE for your foundation concerns!
