Before & After Photos

This crawl space had a gravel floor with pink fiberglass insulation in the ceiling and was very cold!  Their floors were cold and during the winter the pipes would freeze.  The Ridgeback Basement Systems team did a free inspection and the homeowners were eager to get the issue fixed.  Pat & Justin fully encapsulated and insulated their crawl space using CleanSpace 20mil thick liner and TerraBlock foam insulation.  The result is not only beautiful and clean, but warm and safe.  Enjoy your warm floors this winter!

Scott contacted Ridgeback Basement Systems as he wanted to improve the energy efficiency, warmth, and comfort of his home. The gravel floor, although looks nicer, is still sitting on the ground floor with zero insulation or barrier to the home. Our CleanSpace not only made it look better aesthetically with the bright area, but also generated less humidity, warmer floors and an overall healthier home. 

Ridgeback Basement Systems transformed a concerning situation into comfort and safety in this Wellington home. Initially, the new homeowner noticed alarming sagging on either side of the home's main structural beam, as visible in the 'before' photo. Following expert advice, they reached out to us for a professional solution. Employing the SmartJack system, as depicted in the 'after' photo, we effectively stabilized and lifted the compromised beam, restoring integrity and peace of mind to this beloved home.

In Saint John, the homeowner faced instability with sagging floors and excessive bounce due to weakened crawl space joists, threatening structural integrity. Ridgeback Basement Systems stepped in to provide a reliable solution. By implementing the SmartJack® System, we stabilized and reinforced the crawl space, successfully lifting the floors towards their original level. This efficient system supports the home's structure by redistributing weight onto a solid, engineered base. Dependable and precisely crafted, our galvanized steel columns significantly enhanced the home's overall strength, as seen in the after photos. Welcome to peace of mind with Ridgeback.

In Annapolis Royal, Nova Scotia, a challenging foundation issue stood before Ridgeback Basement Systems. As you can see in the before photo, cinderblock walls allowed excessive water intrusion, worsening during heavy downpours. After two contractors suggested drastic measures, our team resolved to find a more efficient solution. Deploying the PowerBrace, SmartJack, and SaniDry Sedona systems, we remedied Katy's woes. As shown in the after photo, her basement is now stabilized and dry. Our approach enhances structural integrity, reduces humidity, and provides a permanent fix to her previous concerns.
