Preventing Two Inches of Water from Flooding a Basement in Cornwall, NY

We received a call from a homeowner located in Cornwall, NY who needed help protecting their basement from flooding. Every time it rained, they would get two inches of water inside of their basement. This is truly a nightmare for homeowners, because that much water can do a lot of damage to the basement. Our specialist determined that a TripleSafe Sump Pump System needed to be installed to protect this basement from flooding in the future.

This patented sump pump system that we offer provides the ultimate protection against flooding thanks to its three lines of defense.

It features two cast-iron Zoeller horsepower sump pumps capable of discharging thousands of gallons of water from your home. If either pump fails, or if there is a power outage, the UltraSump Battery Backup System will turn on and save the day. This backup system ensures that your sump pump continues to run smoothly, and on a fully charged battery it can discharge up to 11,500 gallons of water or more!

After the sump pump system was installed, the homeowner could relax knowing their basement was now protected from floods.

This steel I-beam got secured to the floor joist above using a steel bracket that our foreman Eduardo installed. The best part is that this system can be adjusted to attempt to put the wall back in its original position. Once this was in place, the homeowner no longer had to stress about this wall bowing or cracking any further.
