            In Bobcaygeon, Ontario, these homeowners called Clarke Basement Systems regarding water in their basement. Our System Design Specialist, Chris Luke, arrived at the home to investigate the situation. He noticed that one wall was inviting outside water into the basement. The worry the homeowners had was that they wanted to renovate the basement finally, and with the constant water intrusion, they wanted their newly laid out materials to be safe. Chris recommended two products that will keep the water at bay and conduct it to the existing pump system, which will then make its way outside the home. Product one is our CleanSpace® wall membrane that essentially stops water from entering the basement and runs it behind to the footing. The second product was our WaterGuard® perimeter drainage system, which gathers all the water and directs it to the sump pump, which later discharges it from the home. The homeowners were so thrilled about Chris finding a solution that they went through with the installation. Our Installation Foreman, Dave Jackson, and Specialist, Bryan Richards, came to install the products. The results were immaculate, and the homeowners could now start their wanted renovations.

In Bobcaygeon, Ontario, a home was ready to renovate and then sold. During renovations, the current homeowners realized that a significant underlying issue was occurring in the basement. They've noticed that the basement, foundation wall, had started to bow inwards, which, over time, can result in severe foundation damage and even collapse the basement. This isn't something you ignore; continue renovating and selling the home without proper disclosure. With some research from the homeowners, they came across Clarke Basement Systems. 

 

We managed to send out our experienced and genuine System Design Specialist, Chris Luke, to compose a schematic and get this wall straight again. He suggested our GeoLock™ Wall Anchor and Power Brace wall System provided by Foundation Supportworks of Ontario. These products will not allow the wall to cave in again. Once the estimate was completed, it was time for our installation specialists to come in. On a later day, our installation duo Trevor Bowman and Dustin Biggs arrived at the home to start the work. Our Geo Lock™ Anchors will involve excavating the outside property to place the anchor. Essentially the anchor system has an anchor outside, then a rod connected to it, which runs to the interior lock placed in the inner wall of the basement. From there, the rod is tightened, giving tension to pull the wall the opposite from where it's leaning in from—moving on to our PowerBrace. This system is a metal beam that refuses the wall to tip past it. With a series of these solid beams, the wall will be supported and corrected for many years ahead. The result went smoothly, with Trevor doing the interior work and Dustin excavating outside. Once the work was done, the dirt was put back leveled to the original. Finally, the home is ready for the market!

Fast & Affordable Concrete Repair

The sunken and cracked concrete around your Bobcaygeon home is both an eyesore and a safety hazard. It is also likely to get worse with time, but we can fix it for you!

Our experts use PolyLevel, a superior polyurethane foam to provide reliable concrete lifting & leveling solutions. Small holes are drilled in the concrete and the expansion of the foam lifts & levels the concrete. The majority of contractors you will call use mudjacking instead of foam. Mudjacking is heavier, requires larger holes in the concrete and does not last as long as PolyLevel.

If your home has cracked concrete steps, pool decks, patios, or other slabs, then NexusPro is the right solution. NexusPro repairs concrete cracks and joints and is ultra-durable, so it will withstand UV rays, extreme weather, and more.

After utilizing our expert concrete repair solutions, consider the powerful concrete sealant, SealantPro. SealantPro further protects your concrete by bonding with it to guard against oil, gasoline, liquids, and other debris. In just one coat, SealantPro extends the life of your concrete by 3 to 5 times overall. 

Call us today to learn more about our proven concrete leveling, cracked concrete repair, and concrete sealing techniques. We also offer professional installation of LintelLift to repair and support sagging, cracked garage lintels.

Job Stories From Bobcaygeon, ON
Leaning Basement Walls in Bobcaygeon, OntairoK0M

Bobcaygeon, Ontario, is a beautiful place to live. Have you ever heard of The Tragically Hip? They've made a song about this city. Many homes were willing to sell, but this one, in particular, had a setback that had to be fixed before proceeding with the selling process. Upon renovating, the basement wall on the north side had started to bow. Bowing walls usually occur from soil erosion and age. You run into two risks by leaving this job on the back burner. One is that this can lead to more foundation-related issues such as water impeding any more cracks. Secondly, the home can collapse on itself since all four foundation walls aren't sitting straight. The homeowners were spooked and needed to seek help to aid the wall back to its original state. 

 

By doing minor research on their issue, Clarke Basement Systems popped up at the top of their search page. With years of experience in this field, we can guarantee that our foundation repair method will be the best. We sent out our experienced System Design Specialist, Chris Luke, to the home and did a free inspection. Chris' concluded that the walls need anchors and braces to prop them back straight and keep it that way permanently. One schematic later and a couple of days passing, our Installation duo Dustin Biggs and Trevor Bowman arrived at the home to start the work. They will be using our GeoLock™ anchor system and our PowerBraces. Our GeoLock™ anchors are placed outside but are connected to the inner walls of the basement. The anchor on the outside lawn provides better leverage and can pull the wall straight effectively. Moving on to the PowerBrace's, they stand vertically from floor to ceiling and doesn't allow the wall to push past it. Treat it like a safety net. With Dustin and Trevor combining both systems, they can prop up the wall in no time.

Fully Waterproofed Crawlspace, Bobcaygeon, ON

A home in Bobcaygeon, Ontario, had a Crawlspace that had total flooding. This caused smell, rot, mold, and the decrease of property value. 

 

The customer called Clarke Basement Systems and spoke to Steve Matthews, who explained everything that needed to be done to the crawlspace. Mark Daughtry and the team installed CleanSpace, drainage matting, smart pipe, Triplesafe, Iceguards and Moisturelok. The solution controlled water entering the perimeter wall with the Smart pipe. The drainage matting and Cleanspace traps the water on the ground, preventing water and vapor from entering the finished area of the home. The MoistureLok dry’s the building materials and air preventing mold growth. The Triplesafe sump pump collects any water and pushes out of the home. 

The customer is satisfied that their objective was met in that the value of the house was preserved.

Hello, I have a dirt crawl space under my home in Bobcaygeon that I would like to clear our of various old building materials and then apply at least a vapour barrier and possibly some insulation on the floor underneath. The one problem is that there are difficult areas to reach due to height restrictions so I am wondering what options I have. The majority of the crawl space has approx. 30in of head room but as little 12inches in the back 10ft of the home. A quote or any further info would be great. Thank you in advance, Rob
