Adirondack Basement Systems serving Saratoga County, NY

Eric P. of Clifton Park, NY wanted a clean, safe space in his basement so that he could eventually finish the area off completely in the future.  Eric's basement was just a damp storage space at this time.  His walls were filled with effervescence and although mold was not noticeable as of yet, the entire basement smelled damp and felt humid.  Eric reached out to Adirondack Basement Systems, and with Basement Waterproofing specialist Tim VanKempen, they devised a plan to transform his wet moldy basement in to a useable space. 

Soon after their initial inspection, foreman Christopher Hurley and his crew arrived at Eric's home.  They installed our complete waterproofing system including TrenchDrain, Waterguard, Sump Pump, ThermalDry Insulation and a SaniDry dehumidification system.  WaterGuard and TrenchDrain act as a non-clogging piping system that sits above the soil.  Water passes through the system and eventually runs off into one of our Sump Pumps.  In this case Eric went with our TripleSafe pump, this is the world's MOST reliable pump system, with 1 regular, and 2 back-up pumps.  After the perimeter drain was installed Christopher and crew installed the final product our patented high-performance dehumidification and air filtration system.  The dehumidifier eliminated any damp or musty odors in Eric's basement and solved any problems with mold, allergens, or unfiltered air. 

Now that our work is done Eric’s basement is dry and ready for storage, finishing, or whatever his family and him decide to do with their brand new square footage!

Mr. "R" of Ballston Lake noticed large cracks forming in the foundation of his garage walls. Concerned with this foundation issue, he wanted to make sure it was resolved to prevent any future structural problems from occurring. After contacting our office, Mr. "R" met with our Design Specialist Bill to inspect the issue further and discuss the best possible solution to fix it.

Bill decided the appropriate solution for Mr. "R"s foundation would be to adhere our Carbon Armor straps to his walls to prevent any further damage from occurring. Carbon fiber is nearly impossible to stretch which allows it to keep concrete walls from bending or bowing inward. Carbon Armor is the perfect repair option if the walls haven't started to slide in at the bottom or lean in at the top. It is 10 times stronger than steel and the ONLY carbon fiber product designed to code American Concrete Institution 440.7R-10. Our product is engineered to be the best in the market!

Mr. "R" was very happy with the results of the Carbon Armor installation done by our foreman Austin and his crew. Now he no longer has to worry about new cracks forming and hindering the stability of his foundation.

Mrs. "C" was experiencing water seepage through a crack in her basement floor. Due to this problem her basement was damp and musty making her eager to find a solution to keep her basement dry all the time. Mrs. "C" contacted our company and set up her free estimate with our Design Specialist Bill to do a detailed inspection and recommend the most effective products for her concerns.

Bill visited Mrs. "C"s home and after a thorough analysis he decided our patented TripleSafe sump pump system in conjunction with the WaterGuard would be best to solve the water issue. Our TripleSafe System uses three powerful pumps, one of which is battery operated to ensure that even when the power is out your pump keeps working! WaterGuard lines the perimeter of your basement to create a track for the water to drain to the sump system. Mrs. "C" also decided to purchase our energy efficient dehumidifier, the SaniDry Sedona. The SaniDry Sedona has over 100 pints per day capacity and drains automatically! It also has a large MERV 8 filter which protects you from mold spores, dust and other particulates that can effect your health. To further assist in keeping the basement dry Mrs. "C" had the CleanSpace System installed. CleanSpace is designed to protect your basement or crawlspace from condensation as well as mold and the cold outside air.

Our foreman Michael and his crew worked hard to create a safe dry basement for Mrs. "C". Now she can enjoy a dry basement rest assured that the air she is breathing within her home is clean and free of mold spores, dust and other particles. 

A homeowner in Mechanicville, NY had a vertical crack in his foundation wall that had been there for nearly 11 years. This crack was causing water seepage into the basement; an issue the homeowner could no longer ignore. Since they were in the process of selling their home, they needed to fix the problem permanently and efficiently. The homeowner contacted Adirondack Basement Systems for a free estimate with one of our trained waterproofing specialists. Being a previous customer of ours and knowing about our nationally-backed warranties, the homeowner entrusted us to provide the solution they needed.

Our design specialist recommended FlexiSpan to the homeowner. Unlike hydraulic cements and some epoxies, the special sealant used for FlexiSpan will never dry out or re-crack over time. It will stay bonded with wall movement, and seal the crack permanently so you never have to worry! A pathway for water seepage beneath the sealant can be connected to either a dry well or a perimeter drainage system. The new homeowners can now have peace of mind that the crack will no longer seep in water and create a damp musty environment!

This customer from Mechanicville, NY, contacted us when he noticed cracks in his basement walls. Our Design Specialist, Dave LaCroix, decided that we would repair the cracking in the walls with our patented FlexiSpan crack repair system! This system is actually a three-part process, providing multiple layers of protection. The process begins with applying the sealant along the length of the cracks. After the sealant is applied, a foam is installed on top of that, over the crack. Lastly, an impenetrable membrane sticks to the wall on both sides of the foam strip. This allows any leakage of water through the crack to move down the wall and into the drainage system.

Now, their basement is crack-free, and you would have never known there were cracks there to begin with! If you are worried about cracking in your basement, you can reach out to us today to schedule your free estimate.
