The Basement Transformer Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Grahamsville, NY needed their crawlspace to be completely waterproofed and the structure of it needed to be reinforced. 

This old crawl space had nothing but a dirt floor and was supported by stones stacked on top of one another. It was a mess, and the overall structural integrity was weak. Our team provided a tailored solution for this homeowner to make their crawlspace dry and safe again.  

We installed several products to transform this crawl space such as our SmartJack crawl space supports, our SilverGlo Insulation, and our CleanSpace Encapsulation System.

The SmartJack crawl space supports replaced the stacks of stones entirely, working to provide long-term strength to the structure. They are made of galvanized, corrosion-resistant steel, sporting a load capacity of over 60,000 pounds. They can do this because they use leverage to uplift materials and disperse the load downward in their base. 

The SilverGlo insulation was installed on the crawl space walls to stop air leaks. It also cannot be damaged by or absorb any moisture like fiberglass can, making it extremely durable. 

The Clean Space Encapsulation System stops water from coming into the space, prevents moisture from seeping into the area, and seals the air.

When our team was done, this crawlspace was dry, and the structural integrity had been completely restored!

We helped a homeowner in Ellenville, NY stabilize her failing basement wall by installing our CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System. These straps are made using carbon fiber-reinforced polymers which makes them ten times stronger in tension than steel. Their fabric-like characteristics allow them to be flexible enough to contour tightly along the wall, and the two-part epoxy used to adhere them creates a super strong bond between the strap and the concrete wall itself. This wall is now stable, and the homeowner does not have to worry about this basement wall shifting anymore!  

Our foreman and his team transformed this crawl space from a dirt filled disaster to a dry and healthy environment. Thanks to our super durable waterproof barrier known as the CleanSpace Encapsulation System, water can no longer make its way into this space. We even paired it with our drainage matting underneath to enhance the longevity and durability of the vapor barrier itself. The air in the space will stay dry thanks to our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, and any incoming water will be dealt with thanks to the SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump System we installed. 

A homeowner located in a quaint and lovely neighborhood in Ellenville, NY needed to stop the water that was coming through the walls and into the basement. Her basement was leaking whenever the heavy rain came, and she also wanted to maximize the space in her house. Water intrusion is certainly not ideal when wanting to turn an area into a living space, so our specialist proposed that we install our WaterGuard System paired with our BrightWall panels at the base of the walls. The WaterGuard System is our patented interior drainage system that can receive any water seeping through the walls thanks to its built-in wall flange. The BrightWall panels are 100% waterproof and help to ensure that the water makes its way directly into the WaterGuard System. These panels get installed behind the WaterGuard System in order to assist with this process. Once these were installed, the homeowner felt at ease knowing her basement walls were equipped to handle any water intrusion.

This crawl space had a pool of water inside and was not stable. To correct these issues, our team installed our CleanSpace Encapsulation System and our SmartJack System. The CleanSpace Encapsulation System is a 20-mil thick polymer liner that seals off the crawl space from the earth and prevents water vapor from getting inside. The SmartJack System consists of supports made of galvanized steel, which means they will never rot or rust and can support extremely heavy loads. Now this crawl space is dry and stable, giving the homeowner peace of mind.
