Basement Waterproofing Case Studies: Worried Travellers get Peace of Mind and a Dry Basement in Newmarket, Ontario
Challenge
Going to bed with something on your mind is not a pleasant feeling. You toss and turn wondering what could be, and unfortunately, this feeling tends to stick around until whatever you’re thinking of is dealt with.
A couple in Newmarket, Ontario, was dealing with a crack in their basement foundation wall. They love to travel but were concerned about their basement flooding while they were away. They were also hoping to sell their home in the near future, so they needed the crack fixed the get the true value out of their home.
Solution
After pricing out doing the repair themselves, they decided to reach out to Clarke Basement Systems to get an expert opinion. System Design Specialist Dan Montgomery met with the homeowners and put their minds at ease. He showed them our FlexiSpan® Crack Repair System, and they were surprised to hear that our price was the same as the husband’s DIY budget.
Foreman Ali Fereidouni was tasked with repairing the crack. He injected our FlexiSpan® polyurethane deep into the crack before also sealing the exterior. He added a drain as a backup, and dug it directly through the floor into the groundwater.
The customers couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. Several neighbours saw our truck in their driveway and they reached out with similar issues. The customers raved about their foreman, Ali. “Ali was solo and did a great job. Super impressive and really considerate.” The couple is looking forward to their next vacation away and are excited to list their home in the coming years.
