Before & After Photos

Sharon was looking to sell or rent her home in Sherrill, NY. There we some cracks on the foundation wall that needed to be addressed first. Since the problem had been getting worse and there was water pooling up on the basement floor she knew who to call. She called Woodford Brothers since she had worked with us in the past and knew we were the experts.

Our customer care department sent Chris to inspect and provide a same day proposal. Chris saw that the fix to the problem would be CarbonArmor straps to protect the wall from bowing further. Since the type of foundation Sharon has is monolithic, meaning the footer and the floor were poured together, Chris proposed the DryTrak system with a Super Sump to keep the floors dry for good.

Robert and Alexis Oswego county home had a wet basement problem. They already had a sump pump but water still came in across the floor. Robert wanted the problem fixed because he needed storage space. Alexis wanted the musty smell gone. Robert tried keeping cleaning the water, but after heavy rains, the musty smell would always come back. Alexis even put a fan at the top of the stairs to keep the musty air moving but that only masked the problem. The real problem was water. After seeing one of our TV commercials Robert knew we would stop the water. 

Our crews finished the inside problem in 2 days and will go back in the spring to bury the discharge line. Now, Robert and Alexis can sleep with peace of mind. No more musty smell and water on the floor.

John has been living in his New Berlin, NY home for five years. Over the last year, he has noticed issues with water entering his basement due to cracks in the foundation. Knowing that he wanted to finish the basement in preparation for selling the home, he decided to reach out to Woodford Bros. for a free estimate for the necessary repairs. After an initial inspection of the property, our Design Specialist suggested a combination of systems to repair the cracks and waterproof John's basement. 

First, the impermeable FlexiSpan system will be used to seal the foundation crack.  Next, WaterGuard, is a FrenchDrain system that is installed below the floor slab, resting on top of the foundation footing.  The system then collects any water that seeps through the foundation walls, and drains it to the sump pump. In turn, the TripleSafe Sump Pump provides the ultimate protection against water intrusion, pumping 11,500 gallons or more on a fully charged battery. Finally, the SaniDry Sedona will be installed to eliminate damp, musty odors by drying and filtering the air. With this combination of systems, John can rest assured that his home is permanently waterproofed and his property value is protected. 

A family in Belleville, NY has lived in their 1830's built home for 37 years. The basement was always damp. They have decided to stay in the home so they wanted to add storage space by waterproofing the basement. We installed a Waterguard system to keep the floors dry, guaranteed for the lifetime of the home. We also installed a Sanidry Sedona to keep the air dry in the basement. With the combination of Waterguard and Sanidry, the family can rest assured their stored items are safe in the basement space.
