Before & After

Homeowners in Greenville, NY had a semi-finished basement that was damaged due to a few rainstorms in early Fall. They had originally used drywall which became warped, discolored and started to grow mold. This made their once usable space inhabitable and unhealthy. Luckily, their good friend had used Adirondack Basement Systems for their own home and knew that we could provide the ideal solution to repair the homeowners basement permanently.
After meeting with one of our highly trained Design Specialists, they decided it would be best to start at the root of the cause and install a complete waterproofing system including our TripleSafe sump pump and WaterGuard perimeter drainage system. To repair the walls, our Design Specialist had the perfect solution, our EverLast wall restoration. Since only the lower half of the wall is affected by water, the drywall can be cut out and replaced with the EverLast boards. They are designed specifically for basements in that they are made of inorganic materials thus making them mold resistant. The homeowners also decided to have flooring put in as well after learning about the comfort our ThermalDry Flooring provides. Being raised on pegs up off the concrete floor, they can be about 10 degrees warmer than the concrete itself. They too are made from inorganic material so you will never have to worry about them being damaged from mold or mildew if they ever get wet. These homeowners now have a dry, usable and visually appealing basement!
Sagging, bouncy floors giving you a headache? This is a sign that your foundation is suffering and if not treated properly, it can lead to serious damage. This before and after set showcases our SmartJacks—super strong support piers that work from underneath to give your floors a lift. SmartJacks not only keep the floors from sinking even further, they also push them back to their original position, eliminating that awkward, sloping feeling. SmartJacks are the perfect product to bring your home back to a stable, even level!
The "K" Family already had a partially finished basement and wanted to be sure that the basement would stay dry and could withstand water if ever there was some. The "K" Family decided to install an entire perimeter system and a sump pump to be sure any and all water is being drawn out of the basement. For finishing touches, they decided to go with our EverLast Finished Wall Restoration System. Our wall system uses only mold-resistant materials- with no vulnerable organic material. The wall panels and trim are not prone to damage like drywall, wood, moldings, fabrics, wood-based flooring, and wood framing. In fact, a basement refinished with the EverLast Panels can temporarily flood from a plumbing leak, inches deep, and it is highly unlikely that walls or trim will need to be replaced! For flooring, the "K" family decided to use our ThermalDry Basement Floor System, this flooring is also made with all inorganic material and will not support mold growth or get ruined during a surprise plumbing leak or ground water in heavy rain.
A customer in Delanson called, with concerns of bowing and crumbling basement walls. Our team went in with PowerBrace support as a long-term solution.
A few months ago we installed Everlast Basement Windows in this Delanson home, and recently installed CleanSpace for extra protection from moisture!
