This homeowner was experiencing water seeping in from their front lawn and into their basement. The culprit? The garage door. They already had an old drain installed in front of the garage door, but it just wasn’t doing its job properly on its own. A drain like this being in front of the garage door is not an ideal scenario either, as it can freeze over during the colder months. That’s when The Basement Transformer stepped in to fix this problem. We made sure to install our TrenchDrain Grated Drainage Pipe System on the inside of the garage door that leads to the basement, drastically decreasing the possibility of it freezing in the wintertime. The grated opening fits nice & snug on top of the pipe and collects any water that passes over it. That water then gets directed straight into your sump pump system. 

This system is also designed to pair with our TrenchLock Drain Inserts, which keep harmful radon gases found in the ground out of your home. We made sure to install these as well, so that water would still be drained properly without having to worry about the toxic air making its way into the basement. 

After installing these products, the homeowner knew their front lawn could no longer contribute to making the basement floor wet!

Job Stories From Washingtonville, NY
Stopping Water Intrusion in Washingtonville, NY

A homeowner in Washingtonville, NY contacted us because water was occasionally leaking through the front wall in their basement. This problem had been going on for five years, and the homeowner was becoming frustrated with having to clean up this mess. To stop the water intrusion coming through the wall and to help transport it out of the home, our specialist proposed installing our DryTrak System and our SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System.

Our DryTrak System is made specifically for homes with monolithic foundations, where the floor and the foundation footing are poured together as one piece. Using this system helps our crew avoid having to jackhammer a thick concrete slab, which would create tons of dust and be a lengthy process. Instead, this drainage system gets permanently epoxied to the floor and features an opening at the top that allows the water leaking from your walls to get collected. The water is then directed to your sump pump system.

Since this homeowner was not experiencing heavy floods, we installed our SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System. This sump pump is made to keep the basement dry and healthy for long periods of time, even if there is heavy water intrusion. It features a 1/3 horsepower cast-iron sump pump with the ability to discharge up to 2,220 gallons of water from your home at an eight-foot head.

Once these products were installed, this homeowner could experience peace of mind knowing that the leaking wall was a problem of the past!

Fixing a Sagging Floor Above the Basement in Washingtonville, NY

A basement located in Washingtonville, NY was having some structural problems. The floor above the basement was sagging because the old supports that were holding it up were damaged and compromised. The wooden beams running across the top were cracking and separating as well. 

Our team replaced this outdated system with our SmartJacks, which are made of galvanized, corrosion-resistant steel and support loads up to 60,000 pounds and above.

We had to install the SmartJacks in sections and build temporary walls out of wood to support the floor above as the old supports were being replaced. 

The best part about our SmartJacks is that they can be adjusted again at any time in the event the floor settles or shifts.

They will never rot either, like many wooden beams often do in a basement environment. 

This homeowner could relax once we completed the job knowing their basement ceiling was no longer in danger of collapsing.
