Louis's home in Mohawk, NY had a wet basement problem. The problem was the water was on one side of the basement but his sump was on the other. What to do in this situation? We run a feeder line. You can see the spot where we put a pipe into the floor. Here's what Louis had to say about working with Woodford Brothers.
"The professionalism and level of communication of all the company staff made me comfortable to stay the course with you from the sales presentation to the last sweep of the broom."

Allison purchased her forever home in 2013 in Cooperstown, NY. After the first couple of years in the house she noticed that cracks had formed in the poured concrete foundation wall. As some time passed she started to see water coming through the cracks and pooling on the floor. Since Allison relies on her basement for storage space, this was a problem that needed to be addressed and fixed properly as well as permanently. After typing "foundation crack repair" in her Google search bar, she found Woodford Brothers. She learned that we provide free estimates so she picked up her phone to book an inspection with our Design Specialist through our Customer Care department. On the day of the inspection our Design Specialist performed a thorough inspection followed by a detailed presentation that explained exactly what causes the problem, exactly how we will fix it and exactly how much it will cost. She learned about our FlexiSpan leak repair system. FlexiSpan is permanent solution for leaky cracks in a poured foundation. A channel is created that leads to a sub slab drainage system. The epoxy that is used is designed to expand and contract along with the wall through seasonal changes. We are so sure that this solution will last that it comes with a 25 year warranty. Now Allison has peace of mind that the basement of her forever home is leak free.
Kyle wanted to use his basement to store items since he moved into his home in 2020. The problem was that he could not rely on the basement floors being dry since water would seep in during heavy rains. He found Woodford Brothers online and called to schedule his free estimate. Our Design Specialist, Carol, provided a thorough inspection and presented options to Kyle all on the same day. Once the right system was agreed upon, an installation date was scheduled. One our expert installation crews, Led by Zach, made quick and clean work installing WaterGuard with some Trench Drains and a Triple Safe Sump system to control the water in Kyle's basement. Now Kyle has peace of mind that he can store his items in his basement knowing they will remain safe and dry.
Brittney and Andrew of Norfolk, NY experienced a wet finished basement. Frequent use of a shop vac and concerns of mold hindered their hopes of using the basement space for additional bedrooms. Luckily they called Woodford Brothers after searching the internet for basement waterproofing companies. Our Customer Care department helped Brittney and Andrew schedule their free estimate with one of our Design Specialists, Tim. On the day of the appointment Tim carefully inspected the basement and drew up a plan with some options for Brittney and Andrew to consider. They agreed that the best course of action was to remove the wood paneling along the bottom portion of the wall and install Waterguard and a Super Sump Plus. Our installation crew, led by Zach, carefully and expertly installed the system taking into consideration the expectations and the goals of the home owners. They did the job while being considerate of their home and their time all while making sure to keep them informed each step of the way. Now that the job is done, Brittney and Andrew can begin to rebuild the basement with peace of mind that the space we will be dry and safe for their children spending time down there.
