Before tackling this Wakefield homeowner's dilemma, their sidewalk was not only a tripping hazard but had also sunk in several areas, compromising the home's safety and curb appeal. As showcased in the photo, we revitalized the path with our innovative PolyLevel and NexusPro solutions. PolyLevel raised and leveled the existing concrete, eliminating uneven surfaces, while NexusPro sealed the joints, ensuring durability and resistance to further wear. These transformations are not just immediate but promise longevity, echoing our commitment to offering dependable solutions and an outstanding customer experience.
A homeowner in historic Mount Airy, MD, was concerned about the structural stability of their crawlspace, relying on aging 6x6 posts, and signs of potential mold that could harm air quality and safety. NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair stepped in with a customized solution, encapsulating the crawlspace to tackle moisture and mold risks and installing a supplemental beam supported by smart jacks to enhance stability. The project left the homeowner thrilled, providing a secure, stable, and healthier environment while preserving the integrity of their cherished home.
After NV Waterproofing and Foundation Repair conducted a thorough free inspection at a Lorton, VA home, we identified several critical issues contributing to persistent basement water intrusion. The inspection revealed that the original stone patio and stairwell leading down to the basement door had an undersized drain unable to handle heavy rainfall, resulting in water pooling, overflowing, and seeping directly through the basement entryway. During the assessment, our team also noted signs of water damage and inadequate drainage away from the foundation. To address these problems, our basement waterproofing experts replaced the undersized drain with a significantly larger catch basin designed for increased water flow. We then installed a dedicated discharge line to efficiently direct stormwater away from the home’s foundation, reducing hydrostatic pressure and preventing future basement flooding. To further safeguard the property, we added the TripleSafe sump pump system—a robust, three-pump, battery-backed solution for exceptional redundancy and reliability, ensuring continuous basement protection even during power outages or severe storms. As a result of these targeted measures, the homeowner now enjoys a consistently dry basement, completely free from water intrusion through the basement door, regardless of rainfall intensity.
We addressed a customer's concern regarding a noisy sump pump during operation. To resolve the issue, we replaced their existing sump pump with a Triple Safe Sump Pump. This upgraded pump not only minimizes noise with its airtight lid but also provides additional protection against basement flooding by utilizing a battery backup system. The customer can now enjoy a quieter and more reliable sump pump solution.
