Basement Waterproofing & Crawl Space Repair in Fishkill, NY

A homeowner in Fishkill, NY had been living in his house for about 5 or 6 years but had been dealing with a wet basement for about a year. The problem was getting worse and the homeowner was having trouble sleeping because he was so concerned. His basement would leak whenever there were heavy rains and water would come in along the front wall in the basement. After meeting with our specialist, getting the basement inspected, and going over all the concerns - it was determined that this homeowner needed a full waterproofing system put in place. The homeowner wanted the work done right and trusted us to get the job done. Our crew headed out to the home in mid-March and began jackhammering the concrete slab to make room for the interior drainage system that got installed around the perimeter, along the floor. This system known as the WaterGuard System features a built-in wall flange that allows the water to drain directly into it, which then gets transported into the sump pump we installed. 

The TripleSafe Sump Pump System our crew put in replaced the old sump pump the owner had previously and is now responsible for discharging water out and away from the home. It features two horsepower cast-iron Zoeller horsepower pumps that can pump out thousands of gallons of water. It is also equipped with a battery backup system to keep the system running even in the event of a tripped circuit or power outage. On the discharge line, we attached an IceGuard to allow the sump pump system to function even if the discharge line freezes or clogs during the winter. The TripleSafe Sump Pump System has all the equipment in place to keep this homeowner’s basement safe and put his mind at ease. We even installed our BrightWall panels over the original walls which are totally waterproof and made of rigid plastic and designed to keep water vapor and humidity from passing through. Once everything was in place, the homeowner could relax knowing his basement was safe from water intrusion. 

A homeowner in Fishkill, NY contacted us because they saw that cracks had started to form in the concrete walls in their basement. One of the cracks ran directly underneath a pipe that was along the wall and extended all the way to the ground. If left untreated, water could make its way through the crack over time and into the basement. Water inside of a basement is of course the last thing that any homeowner wants to deal with or worry about, so our transformation specialist Mark proposed installing our FlexiSpan Wall Crack Repair System. FlexiSpan is unlike other products on the market that are often used to repair wall cracks. Other methods that consist of using a polyurethane material, have a tendency to dry out and shrink over time. Mark explained to the homeowner the benefits of using FlexiSpan instead and how it would ensure a long-lasting solution for years to come!

On the day of the install in mid-November of 2025, our crew methodically installed the FlexiSpan Wall Crack Repair System on two separate cracks in the basement. It consists of a flexible sealant made of open cell foam and a waterproof sealant as well. FlexiSpan is made specifically to move with a wall, so if it ever shifts the crack will remain sealed. Once the job was completed, the homeowner could experience peace of mind knowing that the cracks in their wall were permanently sealed and that no water would be able to get through those cracks.
