Frank's Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Our crew went out to Gary C.'s home in Fairport, New York, and installed our SuperSump sump pump system! Gary will no longer see water touch his basement floor for years to come!

At Frank's Basement Systems, we specialize in crawl space problems of all types. And this crawl space was no exception! Paul reached out to us here at Frank’s Basement Systems when he discovered that certain spots on his floor in his Canandaigua home were getting damp and felt as though they might be slightly sagging in places, too. Below the areas having issues was a crawlspace that was getting water and snow in it throughout the winter. To address the structural problems, we installed several SmartJack® Crawl Space Stabilizers. They are galvanized steel piers that are cut to size to fit the space and won’t rust or deteriorate over time. These posts rest on a precast concrete pad that will then have a threaded post cap installed at the top and secured to the joists above. After the SmartJacks are installed all through the crawlspace to support the floors above, the Team moved on to begin the encapsulation process. They used the full CleanSpace® system to waterproof the crawl space. The entire space is wrapped in CleanSpace® Vapor Barrier. This thick and durable, white plastic liner, which resembles a pool liner, will prevent moisture from entering the crawlspace and keep our debris and pests as well. To keep the space dry and to pump out the water collected in the space, a SmartSump™ Crawl Space Sump Pump was installed. This lid also has a built-in area that you can use to connect a dehumidifier hose. This is perfect because the last thing the Team did was install a SaniDry™ Sedona Dehumidifier. 

Eric O., from Macedon, New York, noticed water intrusion into his basement, which is when he decided to call the experts at Frank's Basements for help. Our crew went out to Eric's home and installed our patented CleanSpace solution to keep his basement dry for years to come!

Barb’s basement in Macedon, NY, was having issues with humidity and water buildup. She wanted to address the root cause of the mold after another company had removed it. Our Team began by removing the old insulation from the walls. It was severely damaged due to water buildup from the humidity in the space. To replace the old insulation, we installed Foamax® Basement Wall Insulation. Naturally, basement walls are cooler and can create condensation in the summer, which can lead to water in the basement. Installing insulation made of the right materials will help to create a warmer and drier environment in the space. The outside of the Foamax is a white foil that not only brightens up the space but also creates a vapor barrier to help with humidity control in the basement. After the work was finished, Barb was very impressed with our entire Team, especially the crew that put in all the hard effort transforming this basement!

Yvette was struggling with water coming through the basement walls of her East Aurora, NY home. She reached out to Frank's Basement Systems to help find a permanent solution to her basement water woes. We installed the CleanSpace Wall System on all of her basement walls to help direct any moisture coming through directly down to a WaterGuard perimeter drainage system. The WaterGuard will work to collect that moisture directed down from the CleanSpace to then flow down to the sump pump in the basement. Yvette's problem of water coming in through the walls and into her basement is no longer an issue, thanks to the work that Frank's Basement Systems was able to do in her home in East Aurora, NY!
