Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This Sleepy Hollow, NY home had cracking and bowing walls that was caused from soil expansion. The homeowner was very concerned for the safety of his home and wanted to take care of the problem immediately. After doing some research, he decided to set an appointment with Connecticut Basement Systems to help find him a solution. 

Glen Kerpchar was the Sales Representative who arrived at the home the day of the appointment. He concluded that in order to fix the bowing of the walls, Carbon Armor would need to be installed. He explained the benefits of the product and the homeowner agreed that this was the best solution and quickly set an appointment for a production date.

On the day of production, Victor Alves and his crew installed the CarbonArmor. The CarbonArmor is a great product because it stabilizes your home’s foundation walls by using fiber-reinforced polymers which are 10-times stronger than steel. The ArmorLock brackets bind and secure the Carbon Armor straps to the floor joists making it a great solution, non-invasive, and ideal for stabilizing bowing and leaning walls.  

With the CarbonArmor fully installed, the homeowner now has a peace of mind of the structure of his home!

A homeowner in Cos Cob had unstable floors above their crawlspace. They needed a permanent solution, so they called Connecticut Basement Systems. We sent one of our Salesmen, Steve Machnicz, to assess the issues and propose a solution. 

One of our Foremen, Sergio Alves, and his crew installed this job. They installed our SmartJack crawlspace support posts to stabilize and ensure complete support for the whole house above this crawlspace. Once tightened into place, these SmartJacks are a long-term solution that will leave the homeowner worry-free! 

To be stable, strong and level, the floor above a crawl space requires solid mid-span support that's usually provided by a post-and-beam assembly. But beams are often undersized, and many contractors use wooden posts that can rot, shift and settle. When this happens, floor joists sag and other structural problems occur. The SmartJack system is a foundation repair product that provides a permanent solution to these problems.

A homeowner in Patterson had really bad sagging floors above their basement and was looking for a solution to give them peace of mind. After scheduling an appointment, it would soon be time for one of our Sales Consultants, Gus Stozinic, to go out to the home to assess the issues and provide them with a permanent solution. 

One of our Foremen, Sergio Alves, and Jacob Scott will work on the installation of this job. They installed 19 SmartJacks throughout this basement to stabilize and support the entire home. They had to install 74 feet of supplemental beam to properly install the SmartJacks. These SmartJacks get tightened to a certain pressure until they are stabilizing and supporting the floor joists above. Over time, our crew will come out and tighten them even more so that the floors will no longer sag. Once everything was installed, the homeowner instantly had peace of mind knowing their floors and home were stabilized permanently and was already visibly seeing results on the floor. 

This homeowner in South Salem, NY has a floor over their crawlspace that was sagging. They called us at Connecticut Basement Systems to have our Foundation Supportworks Team come out to fix the problem. One of our Sales Consultants, Steve Machniz, went out to estimate their issues. Soon after, one of our Foreman, Sergio Alves, and his crew tackled this project. They installed SmartJacks throughout the crawlspace, making the foundation stronger and straightening out the sagging floors. Now the homeowner can live worry-free knowing their floor is stable.
