Your Trusted Syracuse, NY Crawl Space, Concrete Leveling & Wet Basement Repair Experts

Before, this Syracuse basement was a damp, underused space, hardly the legacy anyone would want to pass on to their children. After calling us, they have a properly waterproofed basement, boasting our CleanSpace technology, TripleSafe Sump Pump, and SaniDry Sedona systems. This now pristine, dry space is ready and safe for generations to come. 

Patricia has been living in her Syracuse, NY home for over 11 years. Several years ago she began to notice some issues with a damp, musty, wet basement. Wanting to improve her quality of life and eliminate the bad smell, Patricia decided to contact Woodford Bros. for a free estimate for the necessary repairs. After an initial inspection of the space, our Design Specialist suggested the installation of the CleanSpace system, Aspen Air System, and the SaniDry Sedona. 

CleanSpace Basement Wall Vapor Barrier protects from mold growth, while also giving the basement a clean appearance. It is durable, washable, and has anti-microbial protection called UltraFresh built right in.  Additionally, it is a great way to prevent humidity from making its way through concrete walls and into the basement. In turn, the SaniDry Sedona is the world's most efficient, high-performance dehumidifier and filtration system that eliminates damp, musty odors by drying and filtering the air. With these two systems in place, Patricia can rest assured that her home is permanently waterproofed and protected. 

John has been living in his Syracuse, NY home for 19 years, over 10 years ago he began to notice some issues with his basement becoming damp.  While the problem has not really worsened over time, he wanted to get the issue fixed now before it gets worse and more expensive.  John decided to contact Woodford Bros. for a free estimate for the necessary repairs.  After an initial inspection, our Design Specialist suggested the installation of several waterproofing systems to repair John's basement, including, WaterGuard, BrightWall, the SaniDry Sedona, anda Sump Buried Discharge Line.  

WaterGuard will be installed below the floor slab, resting on the foundation footing in order to collect water that seeps through the basement walls and then drains it to the Sump Buried Discharge Line.  In turn, BrightWall is a 100% waterproof and washable plastic sheeting that's attached to your basement wall, blocking out water vapor and humidity.  Finally, the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifies and eliminated damp, musty odors by drying and filtering the air.  This combination of systems ensures that John will not have to worry about any dampness in his basement permanently.  

Lyn loved her new to her home in Syracuse but after one year her basement water problems didn't get better on their own, as they never do. They got worse. Even though her sump was running constantly the problem persisted. During a heavy rain the water even came through the windows and through a pipe penetration in the wall.

Lyn heard about Woodford Brothers from a trusted friend so she gave us a call. Shortly after reaching our Customer Care department, an appointment was sent for Nick to perform a full inspection and provide a same day proposal. Nick came up with a plan of attack and set an installation date. Matt and his crew headed out to Lyn's house to execute Nick's plan. Nick had decided it was best to install a full perimeter Waterguard system and Triple Safe Sump System.  That way Lyn would never have to deal with basement water problems ever again since our Triple Safe Sump system comes complete with 2 electric pumps and a battery powered back up pump. To top it off she joined the Woodford Care Club which means once a year our service tech will visit to help her maintain her system. 

Now Lyn can use her basement space for storage, laundry and whatever else she wants with complete peace of mind that the basement floor will be dry.
