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!

In Putney, Vermont, Stan, and Jan lived in a cozy house. They loved their home, but there was one problem - the basement flooded with water every time it rained. They tried everything from fixing cracks in the walls to installing a new sump pump, but nothing seemed to work. The water kept coming, damaging their belongings and making the basement damp and unpleasant.

One day, Stan and Jan heard about Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems, a company specializing in waterproofing basements. So they decided to give them a call, hoping for a permanent solution to their water problems.

When Matt arrived at their home, he thoroughly inspected the basement and developed a custom-designed waterproofing system. He explained to Stan and Jan that the previous sump pump they had installed was not powerful enough to handle the amount of water coming into the basement. So he proposed a new, high-tech sump pump with a waterproofing system to keep the basement dry and comfortable.

A home in Townshend, Vermont, was more than just a house—it was a piece of history, a testament to a bygone era. Yet, with its age came many challenges, including a damp and musty basement that threatened to undermine its structural integrity. Aware of the importance of preserving the past, the homeowners turned to Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems for help. Recognizing the unique needs of a historic property, the team developed a custom waterproofing solution that addressed the problem's source while respecting the home's architectural integrity.

When a longtime resident of South Londonderry, Vermont, had been experiencing persistent water problems in their basement. Despite their efforts to manage the situation with temporary fixes, the issue persisted, especially during heavy rains and spring thaws. They decided it was time to seek a permanent solution and contacted Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems, renowned experts in basement waterproofing.

Upon arrival, the team from Northern Basement Systems conducted a thorough inspection of the basement. The inspection revealed significant water infiltration through the foundation walls and floor, creating a damp and unhealthy environment. Understanding the urgency and the potential damage this could cause, Matt Clark's team proposed a comprehensive waterproofing strategy.

The recommended solution included installing a TripleSafe Sump Pump System and a CleanSpace Wall System. The TripleSafe Sump Pump System, known for its reliability and triple protection, would ensure that the basement remained dry even in the most challenging conditions. This system features three pumps: a primary pump, a secondary pump in case of primary failure, and a battery-operated backup pump for power outages.

In addition to the sump pump system, the CleanSpace Wall System was chosen to address the moisture seeping through the walls. This heavy-duty liner, designed to act as a vapor barrier, would prevent water vapor from entering the basement and direct it to the sump pump system for removal. The CleanSpace Wall System provides an effective moisture barrier and brightens the basement with its clean, white appearance.

The installation process began with the team carefully preparing the basement. They removed debris and prepared the walls and floor to install the CleanSpace Wall System. The CleanSpace liner was meticulously applied to the walls, sealed, and secured, ensuring no gaps were left for moisture to penetrate.

Next, the team installed the TripleSafe Sump Pump System in the most effective location within the basement. The installation included setting up the primary, secondary, and battery backup pumps, along with the necessary piping to direct water out of the basement and away from the home's foundation.

Throughout the installation, the Northern Basement Systems team maintained clear communication with Jane and Tom, explaining each step and addressing their concerns. By the end of the project, the Walters had a fully waterproofed basement, giving them peace of mind and protecting their home from future water damage.

Jane and Tom were thrilled with the results. They could now use their basement for storage and additional living space without worrying about water damage or mold growth. The clean, bright look of the CleanSpace Wall System also enhanced the overall appearance of their basement.

In West Dover, Vermont, Margaret noticed something unsettling. Her floors seemed uneven, and strange odors wafted up from the crawlspace. Concerned for her home and family, she contacted Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems, hoping they could uncover the source of the issue.

Matt's team arrived and ventured into the dim crawlspace. They found a mess of fallen insulation, damp earth, and compromised support beams. Margaret's heart sank as Matt's team explained the potential risks to her home's stability.

But there was hope. Matt and his team set to work, removing the debris and installing a sturdy vapor barrier to keep moisture at bay. They reinforced the beams, ensuring the house above would remain safe and sound. The transformation was remarkable, turning a hazardous space into a clean, dry, and secure environment.

When the Thompson family from Wardsboro, Vermont, noticed water seeping into their basement after heavy rain, they knew they needed a solution. The basement, which they had recently transformed into a recreational space for their children, was at risk of severe damage. After researching various companies, they decided to contact Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems.

Matt's team arrived promptly and conducted a thorough inspection. They discovered that the basement's exterior walls were allowing groundwater to enter. The team explained their plan to the Thompsons, which included installing a perimeter drainage system and a sump pump to manage water infiltration efficiently.

The installation process was smooth and efficient. The team worked diligently to ensure minimal disruption to the Thompson family’s daily routine. They installed the drainage system along the perimeter of the basement and connected it to a powerful sump pump that would effectively manage any water that entered the space.

Once the job was completed, the Thompsons were relieved to find their basement completely dry even after several heavy rainstorms. They were impressed with the professionalism and expertise of Matt Clark's team and grateful for the peace of mind their newly waterproofed basement provided

The Andersons had recently purchased a lovely suburban home in Brattleboro, Vermont, but they soon realized their crawlspace was causing them trouble. The floors above the crawlspace were cold in winter, and there was a musty smell emanating from below. They wanted to ensure their home was as comfortable and energy-efficient as possible, so they contacted Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems for help.

The team arrived promptly to inspect the crawlspace. They found that the space lacked proper insulation and a dirt floor, contributing to the issues the Andersons were experiencing. The solution was clear: a complete crawlspace encapsulation was needed to transform the space into a dry, energy-efficient home part.

The project began with installing a heavy-duty vapor barrier to cover the crawlspace floor and walls, preventing moisture from seeping in. Next, the team installed insulation to regulate the temperature in the crawlspace and keep the floors warm. A dehumidifier was added to maintain low humidity levels to ensure optimal air quality.

The results were immediate and impressive. The Andersons noticed a significant improvement in their home's comfort and energy efficiency. The musty smell was gone, and their floors were no longer cold during winter. Thanks to Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems, the Andersons could now enjoy their home to the fullest, knowing their crawlspace was in top-notch condition

In Brattleboro, Vermont, a century-old farmhouse had weathered the test of time. Its charm and character had been preserved over the years, but the home’s foundation was beginning to show signs of its age. The floors on the main level had started to sag, creating an uneven surface and concerns about structural integrity. The crawlspace beneath the home had become damp, raising fears of moisture damage.

The homeowners turned to Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems for a solution. Known for their expertise in crawlspace repair, the team arrived on-site to assess the situation. After a thorough inspection, they recommended a combination of SmartJacks to address the sagging floors and a comprehensive waterproofing system to protect the crawlspace.

The SmartJacks system was installed to provide stable and adjustable support. The crew carefully positioned each SmartJack beneath the floor joists, lifting and leveling the floors to their original position. This not only restored the home's stability but also eliminated the unsightly sagging that had plagued the main level.

Next, the team focused on waterproofing the crawlspace. They installed a durable vapor barrier to prevent moisture from seeping into the space. A perimeter drainage system and a powerful sump pump ensured that any water entering the crawlspace would be swiftly and efficiently removed.

When Matt Clark’s team completed their work, the farmhouse stood on solid ground again, and the crawlspace was dry and secure. The homeowners could now enjoy the comfort and peace of mind of knowing their historic home was protected for years.

When the Millers of Brattleboro, Vermont, were expecting their third child and had plans to turn their basement into a playroom. But before they could start renovations, they noticed damp spots on the floor. Concerned about potential health risks and the safety of the future play area, they reached out to Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems.

After a detailed inspection, the team recommended a drainage system and a powerful sump pump. They also installed a vapor barrier to keep the basement completely dry. The work was completed quickly, allowing the Millers to continue their renovation plans.

With their basement now dry and safe, the Millers were excited to turn the space into a bright, fun playroom for their children. They were grateful for the quick, reliable service that allowed them to move forward without delay.

The old house in Brattleboro, Vermont, had stood firm for years. It had seen Vermont’s harsh winters, warm summers, and everything else. But lately, something wasn’t right. The floors felt uneven underfoot, doors stuck in frames, and small cracks crept along the walls. At first, the homeowner brushed it off as just the house settling. But as time passed, the problem only got worse. Worried about what might be happening beneath their feet, they decided to call in the experts at Matt Clark’s Northern Basement Systems.

When our team arrived, we went to work inspecting the crawl space. We found a common issue in older homes—the wooden support beams beneath the house had weakened over time, struggling to hold the weight above, and years of moisture and natural settling had taken their toll, leaving the floors sagging and unstable. The problem could worsen if left unaddressed, leading to costly damage and potential safety risks.

Knowing the home needed a strong and permanent solution, we recommended installing our SmartJack® support system. Unlike traditional wooden posts, SmartJacks® are made of high-strength steel and designed to withstand heavy loads without shifting, settling, or rotting. The best part? They’re adjustable, meaning we could gently lift the sagging floors back to their proper position while ensuring long-term stability.

Over the next day, our team carefully prepped the crawl space, installing the SmartJacks® in key locations where support was most needed. As we made precise adjustments, the homeowner watched as their floors straightened out, doors that once stuck now opened with ease, and the cracks in the walls stopped worsening. The transformation was immediate, but more importantly, it was built to last.

With their home back on solid footing, the homeowner could finally breathe a sigh of relief. No more worries about sagging floors or creeping cracks—just the confidence of knowing their home was safe and stable for years.

In Brattleboro, Vermont, a homeowner began to notice troubling signs inside their home—sloping floors, cracking drywall, and interior doors that no longer closed properly. These symptoms indicated a structural issue beneath the surface. After inspecting the crawl space, they discovered the source: failing support posts and sinking beams, caused by soil settlement and years of moisture exposure.

Realizing this was more than a cosmetic concern, the homeowner reached out to Matt Clark’s Northern Basement Systems, a regional leader in crawl space structural repair.

Following a full inspection, our team recommended the installation of the SmartJack® Support System—a permanent, high-strength solution specifically engineered to stabilize and lift sagging crawl space floors. Each SmartJack® was installed on a base of engineered fill and concrete to ensure stability and prevent future settling.

Once in place, the SmartJack® system was carefully adjusted to bring the floors back to their proper position. The result was immediate—stronger, level floors, restored structural integrity, and a safer living environment.

This Brattleboro crawl space repair is another example of how Matt Clark’s Northern Basement Systems provides long-lasting, code-approved solutions for homeowners throughout Vermont

A homeowner in Brattleboro, Vermont, had grown tired of dealing with water in their basement every spring and after every heavy rain. Puddles would form along the foundation walls, and the musty smell made it clear that moisture had been a problem for years. The homeowner had tried shop vacs, portable pumps, and even a do-it-yourself dehumidifier, but nothing seemed to stop the water from returning. Worried about long-term damage to their home’s foundation and air quality, they decided to call in the experts at Matt Clark’s Northern Basement Systems.

After scheduling a free inspection, a certified waterproofing specialist visited the property to assess the situation. The inspection revealed that groundwater was seeping through the cove joint—the seam where the basement floor meets the wall—and that the existing drainage outside the home was doing little to relieve pressure. In addition, there were visible signs of efflorescence and damp spots on the walls, confirming ongoing water intrusion.

To solve the problem permanently, the Northern Basement Systems crew installed a full WaterGuard interior drainage system along the basement perimeter, designed to capture water before it reaches the floor. The system was connected to a powerful TripleSafe sump pump to ensure reliable pumping, even during power outages. A CleanSpace vapor barrier was applied to the foundation walls to prevent future moisture seepage and direct any wall condensation down into the WaterGuard system. To complete the project, the team added a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to control humidity and protect the home from musty odors and airborne moisture.

The transformation was immediate. The basement went from damp and unreliable to clean, dry, and usable once again. The homeowner was thrilled to have a permanent solution in place—one backed by a nationally trusted warranty and installed by Vermont’s top waterproofing experts. Thanks to Matt Clark’s Northern Basement Systems, another Brattleboro, Vermont, home is now permanently protected from water damage and ready for years of worry-free use.

A homeowner in Brattleboro, Vermont, noticed horizontal cracking along one basement wall—an early warning sign of pressure from surrounding soil. The wall had begun to bow inward slightly, raising concerns about long-term stability. We installed a PowerBrace wall support system, securing the wall and allowing for potential adjustment over time. With the system in place, the wall was stabilized, and the homeowner regained confidence in their home's structure.

This homeowner in Grafton, Vermont, was dealing with water entering the basement along the perimeter of the foundation. The signs were easy to see: damp areas on the concrete floor, water staining near the wall-floor joint, and sections of the basement that needed a more dependable way to manage groundwater before it spread across the floor.

After inspecting the basement, our team identified the best approach as a full interior perimeter drainage system tied into a reliable sump pump system. The goal was to collect water where it was entering, direct it to a central pump location, and discharge it safely outside the home. Our crew installed WaterGuard along the basement perimeter, placing it beneath the floor edge where it could capture water from the wall-floor joint without taking up usable space. Once the drainage system was in place, the concrete was restored neatly over the top, leaving a clean finished edge around the basement. A TripleSafe sump pump system was also installed to give the homeowner dependable protection. This system is designed with multiple levels of pumping support, helping keep the basement protected during regular conditions and heavier water events. Outside the home, the discharge line was directed away from the foundation and finished with a LawnScape outlet. This helps move water away from the basement while keeping the exterior discharge point clean and low-profile in the yard. With the new waterproofing system in place, this Grafton, Vermont, basement now has a much more reliable way to handle water intrusion. Instead of water spreading across the floor, it is collected, pumped out, and directed away from the home.

A homeowner in Westminster, Vermont, needed help improving the condition of their crawl space. The space had exposed block foundation walls, older liner material, debris, and signs of moisture staining along the foundation. These conditions can make a crawl space difficult to use and harder to keep under control.

During the inspection, Northern Basement Systems looked at the crawl space floor, walls, access areas, insulation, and overall moisture conditions. The goal was to create a cleaner and more dependable barrier between the home and the damp ground below. To solve the problem, the crew installed the CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system. CleanSpace was fitted across the crawl space floor and up the foundation walls, helping separate the home from ground moisture while creating a cleaner, brighter surface throughout the space. The team worked through low-clearance areas, around ductwork, plumbing, and foundation obstacles to install the liner properly throughout the crawl space. This type of installation helps improve the crawl space environment without needing to completely change the structure of the area. With the CleanSpace system in place, the crawl space now has a much cleaner appearance and better moisture protection. The homeowner has a more usable and better-protected space beneath the home.

A homeowner in West Townshend, Vermont, needed help with a wet basement that had been dealing with water and moisture concerns. The basement had visible staining along the block foundation walls, signs of seepage, and damp conditions around the floor and wall joints. During the inspection, Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems evaluated the basement walls, floor, drainage needs, and humidity concerns. The team identified areas where water had been entering. It determined that the home needed a more complete waterproofing system to collect water and help move it out of the basement. To solve the problem, the crew installed an interior perimeter drainage system along the affected areas of the basement. Drainage stone was added around the system, and fresh concrete was placed over the repaired sections to create a cleaner, finished surface. A SaniDry dehumidifier was also installed to help manage basement humidity. This is an important part of the system because even after water is collected and removed, damp air can still leave the basement feeling wet and uncomfortable if it is not controlled. The team also addressed wall concerns with reinforcement materials where needed. With the waterproofing system, improved drainage, new concrete, and humidity control in place, this basement is now much better prepared to handle water before it becomes a bigger problem.

• Dehumidification & Drainage: For spaces prone to actual standing water, we install smart sump pumps and commercial-grade low-temperature dehumidifiers specifically built for sub-floor environments.
• Why Sealing Your Crawl Space is Vital for Your Southern Vermont Home

A homeowner in East Dover, Vermont, was concerned about inadequate support beneath a section of the home. The affected area was located inside a small, confined crawl space, making access difficult and creating additional challenges for the repair. After inspecting the crawl space and floor system, our team determined that additional structural support was needed. The existing supports were no longer providing the dependable reinforcement required beneath the floor joists. Without correcting the problem, the floors above could continue to sag, shift, or feel uneven. Because of the limited working area, the crew carefully brought the necessary materials into the crawl space and prepared stable locations beneath the floor system. SmartJack® support posts were installed and adjusted to provide strong, dependable reinforcement beneath the weakened area. SmartJacks are engineered specifically for crawl space environments. Each adjustable steel support transfers the weight of the floor system down to a stable base while allowing the system to be tightened or adjusted when necessary. Despite the tight conditions, our crew successfully completed the installation and reinforced the affected portion of the home. The East Dover homeowner now has a professionally installed support system designed to stabilize the floor structure and provide lasting peace of mind.

When water began entering the finished basement of this South Newfane, Vermont home, the homeowner needed a solution that would address the water problem without unnecessarily tearing apart the entire finished space.

To access the foundation and perimeter of the basement, our crew carefully removed only the lower portion of the finished walls. This allowed us to install the WaterGuard® interior drainage system along the basement perimeter while preserving as much of the existing finished space as possible.

The CleanSpace® Wall System was installed to direct water entering through the foundation walls into WaterGuard. From there, collected water is carried to a TripleSafe® Sump Pump System, providing three levels of pumping protection.

Outside the home, IceGuard® was added to the discharge line to provide an escape route for water if the buried discharge line becomes frozen or blocked. A LawnScape™ outlet carries discharged water away from the foundation.

Once the waterproofing work was complete, our crew sistered the cut 2x4 wall studs with new lumber. This provided solid framing that made rebuilding the lower portions of the finished walls straightforward while leaving the new waterproofing system protected behind them.

The result is a comprehensive waterproofing system hidden behind a finished basement that can be put back together without sacrificing the protection underneath.

A homeowner in Williamsville, Vermont needed a dependable solution for water entering their basement. Instead of simply dealing with the water after each wet-weather event, our team installed a complete waterproofing system designed to collect water at the foundation and move it safely away from the home. WaterGuard® was installed along the basement perimeter to intercept incoming water and direct it toward the sump system. Unlike a drainage system placed directly against the foundation where it can become clogged with dirt and debris, WaterGuard is positioned on top of the footing and beneath the edge of the basement floor. Our crew also installed the CleanSpace® Wall System along the foundation walls. CleanSpace provides a clean, bright wall covering while directing water that enters through the foundation walls down into the WaterGuard drainage system. Water collected by WaterGuard is carried to a TripleSafe® Sump Pump System. TripleSafe provides three levels of pumping protection, including battery-backup protection during a power outage. The discharge system continues outside with IceGuard®, which provides an emergency outlet for sump water if the buried discharge line freezes or becomes blocked. A LawnScape™ outlet releases the pumped water away from the foundation. With drainage, wall protection, sump pumping and exterior discharge working together, this Williamsville basement now has a complete system designed to keep incoming water under control.

A homeowner in Jacksonville, Vermont needed a dependable solution for water and moisture affecting their basement. Rather than relying on a single component to address the problem, Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems designed a complete waterproofing system to collect incoming water, remove it from the basement, and control excess humidity. Our crew installed WaterGuard® along the basement perimeter. WaterGuard is positioned beneath the edge of the basement floor and on top of the foundation footing, where it can collect incoming groundwater and direct it toward the sump pump system. The CleanSpace® Wall System was installed along the foundation walls to manage water entering through the walls. Water is directed down behind CleanSpace and into the WaterGuard drainage system instead of reaching the basement floor. WaterGuard carries the collected water to a TripleSafe® Sump Pump System for removal from the basement. TripleSafe provides multiple levels of pumping protection, including battery-backup protection if the home loses power. A SaniDry™ dehumidifier was also installed to automatically control excess humidity and help maintain dry conditions throughout the basement. Outside, IceGuard® provides an emergency outlet for sump water if the buried discharge line freezes or becomes blocked. The buried line continues away from the foundation and terminates at a LawnScape™ outlet. With drainage, wall protection, sump pumping, humidity control, and exterior discharge working together, this Jacksonville basement now has a comprehensive waterproofing system designed for long-term protection.
