Woodford Bros., Inc. Before & After Photos

This recently purchased home in Arkville, NY had a wet basement. The new owner was aware of the problem when she purchased the house and intended to fix the problem with plans to use the basement space and possibly finish it in the future. Some foundations are built with a monolithic slab, meaning the footer and the slab floor are poured as one piece. Typically, we would break concrete away along the foundation wall perimeter to expose the footer in order to install Waterguard. In situations where doing so would cause damage the foundation we have an alternate solution. It's called DryTrak. The system is installed along the perimeter of the foundation wall but instead of being installed under the slab and on top of the footer, it's installed on top of the floor using a strong epoxy and a non organic plastic drainage system. This system is used to reroute any water that would enter the space at the floor/wall joint to a sump system. Our expert Design Specialists and Installers are trained to know when breaking up the floor would cause damage to a foundation. Our DryTrak system comes with the exact same lifetime dry basement guarantee as our Waterguard product does. Now this home owner has increased her quality of life by gaining more space in her new home.  

Before tackling this project in Tupper Lake, NY, our customer was facing a concerning issue - sloping inward foundation walls that threatened the stability of their home. As depicted in the before photo, it was a problem that demanded immediate attention. We stepped in with the EverBrace system, a reliable solution known for its strength and longevity. Now, as shown in the after photo, the once precarious walls are now stable, ensuring peace of mind for the homeowner. Our team proudly turned a daunting issue into a seamless, dependable fix.

In Tupper Lake, NY, a homeowner was facing a distressing issue - each rainfall brought water into their basement, causing significant structural problems, including a bowing wall. After reaching out, we sent our a System Design Specialist to conduct a detailed inspection who suggested the installation of the GeoLock Wall Anchor and Carbon Armor systems. 

The GeoLock Wall Anchor system is engineered to combat wall bowing by connecting the wall to stable soil, effectively pulling it back to its original position over time. The Carbon Armor system was then applied to further stabilize and reinforce the structural integrity of the wall, guaranteeing lasting peace of mind for the homeowner. The finished project resolved the homeowners issue, with a dry basement and secure foundation, reinforcing our mission to provide reliable, long-lasting solutions and a remarkable customer experience. 

When these homeowners recently inherited their family home in Saranac Lake, NY, they wanted to fix any structural issues before using the home for vacations. Woodford Bros. stepped in with the EverBrace and PowerBrace systems to permanently secure and support the foundation. Now the home can be confidently used for family vacations for years to come.
