Winooski, VT Preferred Foundation Repair & Basement Waterproofing

The Reynolds family of Winooski, Vermont, had noticed their living room floor was gradually sinking, doors not closing properly, and cracks appearing in their drywall. Fearing significant damage to their home's foundation, they contacted Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems. After inspecting the crawlspace, the team found that the original wooden beams were rotting and no longer providing adequate support.

To fix the issue, the team installed a series of steel support beams and adjustable jacks to lift and stabilize the sagging floor. These supports provided the strength the home needed to remain stable for years.

After the repairs, the Reynolds family could walk on their floors with confidence again, and they no longer had issues with doors or cracks. They were impressed with how efficiently the team worked to restore their home's structure.

In Winooski, Vermont, the Adams family faced a recurring issue with water pooling in their basement every spring. The water seepage damaged their stored items and created an unhealthy environment.

The crew quickly installed the drainage system and sump pump, ensuring that water entering the basement would be effectively managed.

Silas witnessed a problem that was getting progressively worse. One of the walls in his basement was bowing. At first, the problem didn’t seem like an urgent matter. Over time, it became progressively worse and Silas knew something had to be done. He reached out to Matt Clark’s Northern Basement Systems for help.

Bowing walls, particularly in the basement, are an extreme risk to anyone’s home. Walls start to bow due to the increasing pressure from outdoor soil as it shifts and expands. If the soil pushes the wall to its breaking point, the wall will slide in and put the entire foundation at risk. Knowing this, Matt Clark and his team got right to work. They installed five PowerBraces alongside the bowing wall. These PowerBraces were zinc plated to prevent rusting. They helped stabilize the wall immediately.

Silas was wise to reach out to Matt Clark before the wall got worse. He can rest easily knowing that his foundation is safe and secure. If you have a bowing wall, call Matt Clark for a free estimate, he’d be happy to help the problem before it gets any worse.

Matt and his team of experts have seen hundreds of crawlspaces throughout their careers. They installed their CleanSpace crawlspace encapsulation system on the walls along with their CleanSpace Drainage Matting under the CleanSpace liner. These installations helped reduced the humidity levels in the air which will help prevent mold growth and rot from the two crawl spaces. When the crawlspaces are in good condition, the whole house becomes healthier.

Negesse had a problem that many homeowners have to deal with: the basement kept flooding after a snowfall or a heavy rain storm. This problem wasn’t going to go away and in fact, during the spring thaw, it would get worse. Negesse reached out to Matt Clark’s Northern Basement Systems for a free estimate and shortly after tagged them for the job.

Matt Clark and his experts examined the situation and knew what to do. They installed their patented WaterGuard system, a SuperSump pump system with a discharge line and a TrenchDrain. The WaterGuard system helps gather the incoming water and sends it to the pump. The SuperSump pump channels the water through the discharge line and to the surface of the outdoors. The TrenchDrain system helped channel any excess water into the SuperSump pump as well. With all these installations in place, Negesse’s basement was in great shape.

No longer will Negesse have to dread heavy rain fall or the spring thawing season. Negesse can rest easily knowing that the basement will stay safe and dry.
