Foundation Repair- Upper Vaughn, NS

In Upper Vaughn, Nova Scotia, this cottage was experiencing uneven flooring, a typical issue with older homes resting on concrete pier foundations. Noticed in the before photo, the house's flooring had several uneven spots due to potential pier settlement over time. Ridgeback Basement Systems solved this problem by installing the SmartJack® System. As seen in the after photo, the galvanized steel columns and heavy-duty threaded rods restored integrity, lifting and stabilizing the floors. This reliable solution ensures the floors remain level, addressing foundational concerns and enhancing stability within the home.

Foundation Repair- Red Bank, NB

As shown in the "before" photo, the basement wall in Red Bank, NB was leaning inward, posing a significant risk to the structural integrity of the home. To address this issue, Ridgeback Basement Systems employed our trusted solution, the PowerBrace. Installed expertly, these zinc-plated steel beams are specifically tailored to the height of the basement. Spotting their mounting points in strategic locations, these beams have halted the wall's inward movement, restoring stability. As evidenced in the "after" photo, this solution has effectively resolved the structural challenge.

Foundation Repair- Moncton, NB

In Moncton, New Brunswick, a homeowner noticed floors sagging due to inadequate beam support. Our team at Ridgeback Basement Systems addressed the issue with our PowerBrace and SmartJack systems. The sagging floors in the before photo reveal the severity of the problem, while the after photo demonstrates the immediate improvement post-installation. Our PowerBrace system permanently stabilizes the foundation walls, efficiently halting further movement. Meanwhile, the SmartJack system engineered from galvanized steel effectively stabilizes floor joists and significantly restores floor level, providing long-lasting structural integrity.

Foundation Repair- Moncton, NB

Before, this Moncton home's cinder block basement was a sore sight and a source of worry, damp and in desperate need of support, as seen on the left. After calling us, we jumped into action. As noticeable in the after photo, we applied our PowerBrace system, not just to waterproof the space but to ensure the foundation stands solid for years to come. Our solution turned their basement from a concern into a pillar of their home's stability.

Basement Waterproofing and Crawlspace Repair- Miramichi, NB

Before tackling the challenge in this historic Miramichi home, its crawl space was a cause of concern with its stone foundation and dirt floor, compromising support and air quality. Notice in the before photo, the evident need for a sturdy solution. Thanks to our SmartJack and SaniDry Sedona systems, as you can see in the after photo, we transformed this underlying space into a reliable, structurally sound foundation with controlled humidity. By sealing the dirt floor with a vapor barrier and ensuring proper ventilation, we preserved the charm and integrity of this historic home while providing a permanent fix. Our team at Ridgeback Basement Systems takes pride in delivering dependable, innovative solutions tailor-made for each homeowner's needs.
