"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had Adirondack Basement Systems come to our home to lift our foundation, and we could not have been happier with the experience. Mikey, the foreman, and Justin, the installer, were absolutely fabulous from start to finish. Both were professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly efficient. They took the time to make sure the job was done right, kept us informed throughout the process, and made what could have been a stressful home repair feel completely manageable. It is so refreshing to have a crew come into your home who clearly takes pride in their work and also genuinely cares about the customer experience. Mikey and Justin represented Adirondack Basement Systems exceptionally well. We would absolutely recommend both of them, as well as Adirondack Basement Systems, to anyone needing foundation or basement work. Five stars all around. Thank you, Mikey and Justin, for such a positive experience!"

"Iâ m glad I got these guys. They showed up 45 minutes after I called them and their work was top notch. They used flexible steel hoses and put a mat under the water heater which prior installers never bothered to do. It was like they were doing work for their own family. Highly recommend."

"I had water in my basement heavy for a couple of months I had 5 professional try to figure why water was coming in, no one could. I hired All About Basements they came over told me exactly what their plan was. After digging, they called me and explained what the problem was. It was easy. I was blown away how fast they found where the water was coming from. Finally, answers. They completed the job 100% they always kept me up to date on the progress they were making. Of course, I had a huge mess in my yard from all the dirt. They took the time to rake my entire yard so it was less of a hassle for me. I would 110% recommend this company. They went above and beyond to make sure I was happy and the issue was fix. Thank you."

"My rear facade wall was falling apart, there was apparent deterioration, cracks falling apart. I was recommended to High Tech by our community board. Scaffold was used for this project. They chipped out the 4-story facade and applied wire-mash. First coat of cement was for curing and the second coat was  the finishing coat. The finishing coat was very finely re-finished. The back-wall was waterproofed with thoro-coat.  My roof was leaking as well at multiple places, bubbles had been formed with water seeping in, leaving into my kitchen. The weather was very rainy and stormy at that time and thanks to High Tech they repaired my roof by placing a new layer roof on top of the existing roof and stopped the leak. High Tech remains as one of the top recommended company in our community board."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

You can seal a concrete slab by cleaning the surface, filling in any cracks, etching the surface, applying a sealer, and letting it dry. Concrete slabs don't typically need sealing, but you can use a topical concrete sealer if you notice signs of water damage. If you haven't already fixed the cause of the leak, then you'll want to repair the plumbing before you seal a concrete slab.

Crawl space foundation problems can stem from a few different issues, but the most common are moisture and water problems and soil instability. Moisture and water issues are often a result of poor drainage, which can lead to water intrusion and soil expansion and contraction, leaving your foundation under added stress. A few things can cause soil instability, including poor drainage, karst landscapes and resulting sinkholes, and poorly compacted soil during construction.

When considering finishing your basement, take into account a few pros and cons:

Pros

  • Can increase the value of your home

  • Separate space from the rest of the house 

  • Customize and personalize the basement to suit your needs and style

  • Increase the amount of living space in your home

Cons

  • May not regain enough value to cover the cost of finishing

  • Lack of natural light if it’s below ground level

  • Moisture or flooding can cause costly damage

  • Installing plumbing and electrical can be messy and costly

You should always hire a structural engineer or a professional and licensed foundation repair company for crawl space repair. These professionals will often be able to treat the symptoms of the issue as well as the underlying problem so that you don’t have ongoing damage. They’ll also often take preventative measures to stop the issue from recurring in the future.

Yes, water coming up from the floor should be treated as an emergency. If you're unable to either identify or stop the source of the water on your own, contact an emergency plumber right away. In addition to harming your flooring, standing or pooled water can lead to water-damaged concrete.
