SNOW & BASEMENT & CRAWLSPACE WATER LEAKS

Uwanted water leaking into our home is frustrating to say the least. In addition, this winter has already proven to be a formidable one. The problem for many unprotected homeowners is waiting to get hit with a deluge of ground water as the snow melts. 

Look at it out the window. Innocent enough, right? Picturesque even. 

A Winter Wonderland?

Imagine the thousands of gallons of that white water just sitting around & on top of our homes, just waiting for the slightest bit of sun to begin making its way into the ground and through the foundation,  covering the entire floor with water, wicking up through the Sheetrock, destroying paper & organic goods, ruining finished living space, or increasing humidity to unhealthy levels. In addition a wet or damp basement disrupts our busy lives and flow of the household. And if you were considering selling and moving, that is a real burden. Prospective buyers are very apprehensive about wet and damp basements and crawlspaces.

The possibility of toxic mold being present scares anyone. The idea that your wet basement is a recurring problem, that you're trying to unload on them to deal with every time it rains, is a scenario they would just as soon pass on.

As the freshly melted snow percolates into the earth, the idyllic winter scene around your home begins to change.

Slowly the foundation walls begin to feel the hydrostatic pressure, the concrete slab resists for a time, but it's futile. The concrete is after all, porous.

The earthen crawlspace gradually becomes muddy & wet. In short order, foul smells emanate from the wet, damp basement and crawlspace that lie below the living space. The Indoor Air Quality has been altered. Extra storage space now compromised. Laundry rooms, kids play rooms, pool room, "man" caves, etc. compromised.

What an unpleasant scenario. Fortunately, there is a solution in Statewide Basement Systems,Inc., located in NY and serving Dutchess, Putnam, Westchester, and Ulster Counties, and Faitfield County, CT.

No wonder so many people throughout the Hudson Valley, NY & CT, continue to rely on Statewide Basement Systems to provide professional Basement Waterproofing solutions to make their home dry & healthy. 

Licensed & Insured, Statewide Basement Systems provides the right healthy solution for you and your family. 

There is no need to suffer the unpleasant and unhealthy impacts of a wet basement or Crawlspace any longer. Statewide Basement Systems looks forward to serving you.

If you are concerned about a water issue from leaks, foundation wall, crawlspace, or ground, don't hesitate to call Statewide Basement Systems. You'll be glad you did! 845-635-3040.

Waterproofing Basement & Foundations

Fall rains can be relaxing and soothing to listen to while relaxing near a crackling fire or enjoying the magnificent views of the Fall foliage of the Hudson River Valley. But if water infiltrates your homes foundation walls, it quickly loses its allure. 

Often times, the water that percolates down through the soil surrounding a home's foundation, will not immediately pose a problem to the foundation walls or the basements concrete slab. 

Over time, however, the damaging effects can quietly build unnoticed and travel through capillary action occurring below grade level. The water travels toward the low points of the home. Enough hydrostatic pressure is produced to permeate the slab and or the walls or even the soil in a cellar or boiler room and humidity levels begin to increase. 

"No problem" you might say. I'll buy a dehumidifier. Now you begin to pay to run the unit and it is drawing the water through the concrete walls and floor faster than it was before.

Installing a professional Basement Waterproofing System is not only a necessary healthful home improvement it is a value added improvement to your home.

No More Wet Basement! NY Basement Makeovers

After Statewide Basement Systems installed Basement Waterproofing System

NY WET BASEMENTS AFTER THE THAW from this historical winters' excessive precipitation, many New York & CT  homeowners had the sometimes difficult task of selecting a reliable waterproofing contractor to whom they felt they could trust, would be ethical, informed, & reasonably priced. And naturally, get the job done right the first time!

Statewide Basement Systems, Pleasant Valley, NY was pleased and honored to be chosen by so many of our troubled citizens, neighbors, and friends in making their homes whole again. 
Homeowners from Westchester County, Putnam, Orange, and, of course, our hometown Dutchess County were served well and  are now enjoying the benefits of our SBS Basement Waterproofing System.


We were also able to provide remodeling services, apply energy efficient spray foam insulation, and replace old inefficient windows and doors. The cumulative effect really does provide a "Green Friendly" solution for our environment while helping to save considerably on our utility bills.

SBS has two decades of experience and has seen most everything when it comes to poor home construction design and building practices and the dangerous effects water intrusions and dampness can inflict on a building including its air quality (IAQ).

What exactly is happening to my Wet Basement?  
When a basement floods or leaks due to foundation or slab  failure as a result of hydrostatic pressure a drain tile system is frequently  the solution. A drain tile system allows for the foundation to "breathe" or release pressure from the excess moisture that has built and is exerting pressure against  the foundation floor walls of the basement. This occurs as a result of the hydrostatic pressure that has built-up due to rainfall, springs, and snow thaws. The water introduced into the home/buildings surrounding environment (soil, earth, shale,rocks, etc.) filling the surrounding soil and not allowing proper percolation to occur as quickly as needed.

Perfect time for Improving the Basement

What about My Home?

Winter and Basement Waterproofing

Winter weather can be enjoyable but not when it causes basement flooding due to snow thaw.

Many times the ground is saturated around the foundation or building envelope and water is pressed into small capillaries in the ground during a process called "hydrostatic pressure."

Basement waterproofing can alleviate this pressure and provide you and your family with the healthy useable space you have always wanted. In addition, you can have Statewide Basement Systems apply Energy saving spray foam insulation into your home providing comfort and reducing heating and cooling costs.

Floor joists above crawlspace being sprayed with closed cell spray foam insulation.

If you think you would benefit from SBS's energy saving insulation or basement Waterproofing and Crawlspace Encapsulation services, give us a call. You'll be glad you did.

This particular crawlspace was filled to the joists with building materials, wet insulation and other debris. It was a tough job, dirty, uncomfortable job. The tight space to  move around under the home to get to much of the debris required literally crawling through dirt. Junk Away USA, Junk Removal & Property Maintenance  always takes care of us. Great service, including landscaping, powerwashing, moving heavy items, cleanouts, and so  much more. Junk Away USA are a Hudson Valley family business.

Hydrostatic Pressure, Rainfall, & Basement Waterproofing

http://www.StatewideBasements.com

The rainfall has finally backed off for the day, well this part I the day at least. It has been an unofficial deluge in New York and Connecticut basements the past few days.

The sump pumps and generators can be heard protecting the many homes protected by basement waterproofing systems and back up generators. The ground becomes inundated with water and can no longer percolate properly. The hydrostatic pressure then builds against the foundation floor and walls and exerts itself against our homes, until it finally makes its way inside.

And then, the problems really begin. Water damage left for more than 24 hours can really begin to cause problems.

If you have been effected by water damage and want to resolve the problem once and for all, Call the Basement Waterproofing Professionals at Statewide Basement Systems. 845-635-3040

Statewide Basement Waterproofing Systems and Avoiding Mold Risks & Mycotoxins

Mold Hazards, Wet Basement Waterproofing System

Keeping Your Home above Water

Basement waterproofing systems are designed to alleviate hydrostatic pressure and direct water outside the home and protect the interior space. Indoor air quality is also enhanced when humidity levels and potential for mold growth is diminished by getting rid of the water.
After all, water, organic material, and heat can produce alot of mold colonies quickly. The mold colonies are then spreading by eating the cellulose, organic matter, such as paper faced gypsum or sheetrock, and other organic materials that we build homes with and stuff in our storage nooks and basements. Not to mention the many porous furniture materials, along with wood and cloth. Mold absolutely loves this stuff.

Water damaged sheetrock feeds alot of mold colonies and produces billions of spores

http://www.statewidebasements.com


When people are around toxic mold they are exposed to airborne mycotoxins by breathing. These mycotoxins end up in the lungs and cause breathing problems and other severe symptoms. Mycotoxins are toxins produced by certain species of mold. These mycotoxins are some of the most toxic substances in existence. To make matters more difficult, mycotoxins (.01 microns) are smaller than mold spores and spores are roughly 1 to 10 microns, and invisible to the naked eye. By comparison, a human hair is 100 microns.

When one considers the risks of living in the home after a water event like flooding or plumbing leak or break, or hydrostatic pressure forcing the foundation walls of the basement to leak water into the building envelope through capillary action, it is smart to call a professional waterproofing and mold removal, remediation company and leave the home until the water and mold have been properly remediated.

Basement Waterproofing 101; Winter Protection 

Basement waterproofing in the cold,harsh New York and Connecticut winter weather is crucial when contending with water damage from thawing snows, powerful rain, and flooding that can be downright deadly.

Basement Waterproofing tips from Statewide Basement Systems can be put into practice to avoid the need for basement waterproofing if you are fortunate, or perhaps to stem the tide a bit, or require Water Damage Restoration Services.

1. It is very important to avoid basement flooding  or water damage from occurring due to poorly installed gutter systems.

2. Ensure the leader pipes extending downward along the corners of the home are pointed away from the foundation. This can sometimes lead to increased water around the foundation walls, increasing hydrostatic pressure.  

3. Look around the house. If your basement is flooding, cinder block walls are leaking, or poured foundation walls are showing signs of dampness, check this out.
Inspect the grading of soil around perimeter of foundation and check for slope. Grade away from the home to avoid water traveling toward the foundation and causing basement water intrusions, flooding, and the need for professional water damage restoration services.

If you have a basement in need of Basement Waterproofing, Call Statewide Basement Systems 845 635 3040, or visit us online. Statewide Basement Systems serves New York and Connecticut and would be glad to help protect your home from basement flooding.

Basement Waterproofing: Beating the Water Damage

Waterproofing Basement Before Water Damage Occurs

Statewide Basement Systems

http://www.nybasementwaterproofingsystems.com

There are few things more frustrating than cleaning up after a water event and living with the aftermath of damp, moldy, and smelly conditions. One way to avoid this frustration is to protect your home and one of your biggest investments prior to a water event.

Securing your property against the damaging effects of water intrusion is of the utmost importance. Protection from water with an SBS Home Waterproofing System is a proven method of effectively securing your home or office building from the damaging effects of water intrusion.

Basement Waterproofing & Crawlspace Encapsulation

This is a safe and cost-effective method that will provide a proper water mitigation system that will keep the property dry in the snow thaws and rainstorms that wreak havoc on so many homes.

If you notice a white, powdery substance on the walls or floors of your foundation, you should have a professional waterproofing company inspect the situation. This is one of the signs of water intrusion through cement. Efflorescence is caused by the acidity contained in the water that is making its way through the foundation by way of hydrostatic pressure. This pressure is exerted by the build up of pressure around the foundation walls and cement floor slab when the surrounding earth has been saturated with water and can longer percolate the ground water efficiently. The resulting hydrostatic pressure  forces the groundwater through cracks and fissures , through the cement walls, mortar joints, etc. and produces this crystallized, sometimes chalky substance on the surface of the basement wall and/or floor.

Colors can vary based on various conditions and elements present at your property.

The relief valve effect is provided by Statewide Basement Systems Home Waterproofing System by way of a 4" conduit which allows for groundwater to be navigated away, thus releasing the hydrostatic pressure from the walls and floor, thus reducing this damaging effects of water intrusion into the home as well as to the structural integrity of your home. 

It is amazing to see how great the pressure can be given particular conditions, such as type of soil, fill, etc. surrounding the home.

If you have been faced with a water damage, mold, water intrusion event or related challenge, and would like our help, Call SBS at 845 635 3040. We look forward to serving you.
