The Thompson family in Hanover, New Hampshire, had long relied on an old sump pump to dry their basement. Unfortunately, as time passed, the pump’s performance began to degrade. It struggled to keep up with the increasing amount of water during heavy rain, and eventually, the basement flooded during a particularly intense storm. The family was left with a soggy basement, damaged belongings, and the threat of mold growth. Knowing they needed a permanent solution, they called Matt Clark’s Northern Basement Systems for help.
Upon arriving at the home, the team assessed the situation and confirmed that the sump pump had become insufficient for the basement's demands. The existing pump was outdated and incapable of handling the water entering the basement. The team recommended a complete overhaul, including installing a new TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System, designed to handle regular water flow and larger volumes during heavy storms.
The TripleSafe™ system consists of three pumps: a primary pump for typical use, a secondary pump to handle additional water, and a battery-powered backup pump to ensure functionality even during power outages. The system is designed to handle the most challenging water removal needs, preventing future flooding.
With the new system installed, the Thompson family no longer had to worry about basement flooding. The upgraded sump pump provided reliable, year-round protection. The family was thrilled with the outcome, knowing their basement was secure and their home was protected from water damage.
For anyone facing similar flooding issues, the TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System offers a powerful solution to ensure a dry basement in all conditions.

Matt Clark’s Northern Basement Systems responded quickly, diagnosing the issue as foundation wall failure caused by soil pressure. The team installed Power Braces to stabilize the bowing wall. These braces are a permanent solution that work by reinforcing the structure and allowing for potential realignment over time.
With the Power Braces in place, the family’s home is now safe from further foundation damage. They can confidently use their basement without worrying about structural failure, knowing their foundation is reinforced for the long term

The Johnson family had lived in their home in Hanover, New Hampshire for over 20 years, but they had always struggled with water entering the basement. Every time it rained, they would have to rush to the basement to bail out water that had seeped in through the walls and floor. The damp, musty smell that resulted was not only unpleasant, but it was also harmful to their health. They had tried a variety of temporary solutions over the years, such as sealing the walls and installing a sump pump, but nothing seemed to work permanently.

Mrs. Johnson was skeptical but desperate, so she decided to give them a call.
When the team from Northern Basement Systems arrived at the family's home, they conducted a thorough inspection of the basement and the surrounding area. They explained to the Johnsons that the water was entering the basement due to a combination of factors, including the slope of the land around the house, the type of soil, and the age of the home. They then presented the Johnsons with a customized plan to waterproof their home permanently.
The plan included installing a drainage system around the house's interior perimeter and installing a high-quality sump pump to remove any water that managed to enter the basement. The team from Northern Basement Systems was professional and efficient, and they completed the job in just a few days.
The Johnsons were thrilled with the results. They no longer had to worry about water entering the basement and damaging their belongings. The damp, musty smell was gone, and their health improved.

George O. was tired of the musty smell from his crawl space invading his home. Desperate for a solution, George called Matt Clark’s Northern Basement Systems based on a recommendation from a colleague. Crawl space expert Michael Doherty came out to inspect the Hanover, NH home and look for the source of the odor!
Michael explained that removing moisture and keeping the crawl space dry was the only way to get rid of the smell – and keep it away! Foreman Matt Ostroud and his team encapsulated the crawl space, which solved several problems, smell included! After seeing the crawl space, the waterproofers suspected that plumbing leaks were partially to blame for the moisture and odor. They installed a SmartDrain crawl space drain and plumbing leak system to ensure the removal of any water that enters the crawl space. A SaniDry XP would help keep the air dry, preventing odor. Finally, the whole interior would be kept clean and dry with a CleanSpace liner and drainage matting.
George’s original concern was just with the smell of his crawl space. But having the space encapsulated provided the homeowner with many more benefits. His home is now more energy efficient, saving him a substantial amount on utility bills. And the space is clean enough to use for storing valuables!
Sharon F. had just purchased a home in Hanover, NH and it wasn’t long before she noticed a leak in the basement. She knew that if she ignored the problem it would only get worse. Since she was new to the area, she wasn’t sure of whom to call for help. After researching businesses near Hanover, she chose Matt Clark’s Northern Basement Systems because she was impressed with their high standards and stellar customer reviews. She contacted them immediately and set up and appointment with waterproofing expert Justin Lanfranconi.
After Sharon approved the quote, Northern Basements team installed the products that Justin recommended. Sharon’s basement is now fully protected against the elements! The installation included a SuperSump sump pump and LawnScape drainage outlet to remove standing water and keep water out.

Ursula B. rented out her Hanover, NH home. When Ursula received complaints about cracks in the floor of the garage attached to the home, she owed it to the renters to call a professional and have the garage inspected. After doing some research, she decided that Matt Clark’s Northern Basement Systems was the right contractor for the job. Owner Matt Clark came out to conduct the inspection. He discovered that the garage had been built on loose soil and was quickly sinking into the ground, causing major cracks to the foundation. Matt assured Ursula that lifting and supporting the foundation right away would restore the garage to its normal place and ensure that the rest of the home would not be compromised.
After Ursula agreed to the plan that Matt proposed, Matt's team arrived to get started. They excavated the property and coated the foundation with additional concrete to seal and strengthen it. Next, they installed eight push piers. These long steel rods attach to the foundation and extend deep into the ground, anchoring in a more stable soil stratum. The foundation piers help to transfer the weight of the structure and prevent further settling and cracks.
Matt Clark’s Northern Basement Systems restored Ursula’s garage and her peace of mind. Her tenants can continue to live there safely and she can offer them a home she’s proud to own!
