Woodford Bros., Inc. Before & After Photos

The time had come for this Rochester, NY home owner to address the basement water problem that has been causing damage to their finished basement. There are children in the home and ideally water should not be an issue so that the kids have a place to play worry free. Having worked with Woodford Brothers in the past and knowing others that have worked with us that also had a remarkable experience, he called for his free estimate. Design Specialist, Tim, walked the owners through their options and they decided on installing Waterguard and a Super Sump plus as an upgrade from the old sump that already existed in the basement. The home owners found the installation crew to be very professional with good communication and work ethic. When the job was complete they cleaned up well and left the basement with a new system designed to keep the floors dry. Now the home owners have peace of mind that the basement is good to go as a play space for the kids. 

In Rochester, NY, a concerned homeowner reached out to us, worried about a rusting support post in their garage. This was more than just a cosmetic problem; it was a potential safety issue, and they wanted to address it promptly to ensure the stability and longevity of their garage. The before photo clearly illustrates the problem: a worn, rusted post that was no longer up to the task of supporting the garage's weight safely and effectively. 

Our crew replaced the failing post with our SmartJack system, a state-of-the-art support solution designed to not just prop up the structure but to provide an adjustable, long-lasting fix. This transformation highlights not just our ability to solve a critical problem with precision and efficiency, but also our commitment to ensuring that every customer's home is safe, secure, and supported. For us at Woodford Bros., it's more than just a repair; it's about enhancing your peace of mind, reinforcing the safety of your home, and making sure the solutions provided are as enduring as they are effective. 

Katherine has been living in her Watkins Glen, NY home since 2012.  Since moving in she has noticed that the wooden beams supporting her home were causing sagging on the main floor and needed to be replaced.  To make sure the home is structurally sound and to fix the foundation before adding on an addition, Katherine decided to contact Woodford Bros. for a free estimate for the necessary repairs.  After an initial inspection, our Design Specialist determined that the SmartJack system would be the optimal solution to repair the sagging beams. 

The SmartJack system provides solid support for sagging or undersized beams, restoring stability and straightness to sagging floor joists in a crawl space.  Once installed, SmartJack support posts can correct problems such as sloping and overly springy floors, interior wall cracks, and out-of-level door frames.  By choosing to install the SmartJack system, Katherine is ensuring that her home's structural integrity is permanently secure.

Lue lived in her home for over 50 years. Once she noticed the issues with his basement walls she could tell the problem was getting progressively worse. Since she loved her home and cherished the memories she wanted to keep living in the home. She knew it was time to call the experts. She knew of Woodford Brothers because of our reputation so she gave us a call. Our customer Care department set her up with a free estimate appointment with one of our Design Specialists, Tim. Tim showed how we can fix foundation walls with our Shotlock system. First a rebar grid is constructed, framing out all windows and other obstructions. We then use a high pressure hose to spray the perfect mix of concrete into the grid. Once complete, the concrete is smoothed over and there is a beautiful new, reinforced, basement wall. Lue now has peace of mind that her home will last for many more years to come.

Carl's home in Fairport New York had a wet basement problem.  Carl didn't ignore the problem but every time he thought he found the leak the water seemed to move to a different area. Finally, after fighting for years with the dampness Carl saw our truck. Our crew was working a foundation across the street from his house. He asked his neighbor about Woodford Brothers and knew he had to have us do the work. His neighbor was very picky when it came to contractors. Surprised Carl asked him about Woodford Brothers. His Neighbor told him how great our crew was. Not only did they explain every step of the job,, they also made sure to clean up the entire basement. His neighbor explained how the whole experience was great from his first call to the end of the project. The neighbor has even signed up for our Woodford Care Club. Our service plan helps keep homes protected. 

Needless to say, Carl called right away. Our crew found the problem and installed a waterproofing system called Waterguard. Now Carl can sleep with peace of mind knowing his basement will be dry.
