Crawlspace Insulation & Repair Specialists in Fulton | Basement Waterproofers

The “H” Family of Broadalbin wanted to have a more comfortable and warm basement.  Their basement was partially finished but seemed to always still feel damp and cold.  After attending the Saratoga Home Show and seeing our booth they decided to chat with one of our certified design specialists about making an appointment for an inspection. 

Shortly after the home show, an appointment was set for the specialist to come evaluate the basement.  Our specialist decided that having our foreman Chris Hurley install a TripleSafe Sump Pump would be the best bet to get rid of any water.  An external discharge pumps any water collected in the pump out of the home a safe distance away.   To give it that finished look Chris also installed 910 Square feet of Parquet Thermal Dry Flooring. 

The “H” family has been very happy and having no issues with water or odor coming into his basement.  It is now a dry and will stay that way for many years to come! 

A homeowner in Johnstown, NY was experiencing issues with the foundation of his home. He said when he is upstairs it seems to be sloping inwards towards the center of the home and some of the walls are showing signs of cracking. They decided to set up a free estimate with Adirondack Basement Systems and have one of our Design Specialists do a thorough inspection. 

Our production team came and installed our Smart Jack reinforcement system for the homeowner to provide new supports and fix the structural issue. The SmartJack system is a better solution to standard beams that are often undersized, and many contractors use wooden posts that can rot, shift and settle. When this happens, floor joists sag and other structural problems occur. Because of its design, the SmartJack can be adjusted over time to provide additional straightening and leveling action if necessary. It is able to support 60,000 lbs and made of galvanized steel to prevent corrosion. Now the homeowner no longer has to worry about the structural integrity of his home.

A homeowner in Johnstown, NY contacted Adirondack Basement Systems with concern over his front porch patio. The concrete slab had a large crack and seemed to be sinking, making it unlevel. They were looking for a repair that would restore their existing slab rather than pour a new one and risk more cracking.

Our PolyLevel system was the perfect solution for the homeowner. Environmentally safe, and more efficient than mud jacking, PolyLevel extends the lifetime of the concrete slab and helps to prevent further damage due to the movement of silt beneath. The homeowner now has peace of mind being provided a permanent solution.

A homeowner in Gloversville, NY had a wet basement with a large vertical crack in the wall causing water seepage. They had tried to repair the cracks with hydraulic cement but that solution proved to be only temporary. Looking for something permanent they contacted Adirondack Basement Systems for a free waterproofing estimate with one of our certified basement waterproofing specialists.

Our design specialist came to the home to do a thorough inspection and found that the homeowner could greatly benefit from a sump system as well as repairing the crack in the wall. A TripleSafe sump system was installed with a battery backup to ensure their basement would always be kept dry even in heavy storms. A perimeter drainage system was installed as well called PolyDrain to direct any water and help create a basin for the crack to drain into. As for fixing the crack itself, we repaired it with FlexiSpan. This product consists of a high-viscosity polyurethane polymer that penetrates and seals the crack while allowing for flexibility. An extra layer of drainage matting is added and then it is sealed over again with the polymer. The homeowner now has a permanent solution to keep their basement dry.
