Northern Basement Systems Before & After Photos

To put an end to water invading the basement of their home in Colchester, Vermont, the homeowners hired  Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems installed a custom waterproofing system.

When an old sump pump failed, and water entered the basement of a home in Essex, Vermont, the homeowners reached out to Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems.  Northern Basement Systems installed a custom-designed waterproofing system, equipt with a new sump pump, making sure water wouldn't enter again.

A customer in Essex, Vermont contacted Matt Clark's Northern Basemnet Systems looking for a way to stabilize their bowing walls.  With many options availble, the customer decided to go with The CarbonArmor System.  The CarbonArmor System permanently stabilizes your home's foundation walls. CarbonArmor uses fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) which are 10-times stronger than steel, yet flexible enough to contour tightly against your basement wall. The ArmorLock brackets bind and secure the CarbonArmor straps to your floor joists making the CarbonArmor solution fast, non-invasive and ideal for quickly stabilizing bowing and leaning walls.

This Essex, Vermont homeowner was getting water in several locations, especially when it rained or during the spring thaw. We developed a solution to meet the needs of both him and his basement! Our installation specialists installed WaterGuard Drainage and CleanSpace Vapor Barrier around the perimeter of the basement to keep the basement dry. In addition to stopping water from entering, the representative also suggested a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to reduce the moisture in the air to improve air quality and reduce the risk for the growth of mold.

Tom of Essex, Vermont contacted Matt Clark and his team at Nothern Basement System, after noticing the worsening condition of his basement wall. We provided Tom with a FREE ESTIMATE to inspect his foundation, both inside and outside to establish the source of his bowing foundation wall and then further develop a plan to resolve his concerns. 

Our system design specialist proposed to install a PowerBrace System to stabilize the foundation wall and prevent further bowing and cracking and our team did just that! This system can also have the potential to straighten the foundation wall over time. 

This PowerBrace System consisted of 5 steel I-beam secured to the floor joists above, using steel brackets. This system installation is interior with no exterior excavation, making for a quick and minimally invasive installation.

This PowerBrace System provided Tom with a stronger and safer foundation to support his home for years to come! Over time through yearly maintenance and system tightening, we hope to return this wall to its original upright position.
