Before & After Photos

In the before photo from our recent foundation repair project in Middleton, Nova Scotia, you can see the significant bow in the foundation. This kind of issue not only affects the safety but can also impact the structure over time. In the after photo, you'll see where we swiftly resolved these concerns by installing our SmartJack® system. This carefully designed system stabilizes crawl space beams and floor joists, pushing your home back toward its original state. It reinforces weakened floors and ensures a rock-solid foundation, bringing peace of mind.

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.

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.

Transforming Diligent River homes, our latest project showcases a remarkable turnaround! Initially, the homeowner alerted us about cracks in their basement and leak issues worsened by heavy rains—compounded by the absence of a gutter system. As you can see in the before photo, the wear was significant. Enter Ridgeback Basement Systems: we implemented SmartJack technology, providing a reliable, structurally sound solution. Notice in the after photo the stellar outcome. Not only have we fortified the foundation, but we also prepared the home for upcoming renovations, ensuring lasting serenity for the family. Plus, exciting news for Fox River residents—we also service your area, bringing our expert solutions closer to you!

In Kentville, Nova Scotia, a homeowner faced persistent issues with moisture and structural concerns in their crawl space. Notice in the photo the damp, moldy conditions affecting both integrity and indoor air quality. We addressed this by installing our CleanSpace encapsulation to enhance moisture management, a SuperSump to ensure efficient water removal, and an IceGuard system for all-weather drainage reliability. The SaniDry Sedona was used to maintain a healthy humidity level, and SmartJack resolved structural instability. As demonstrated, Ridgeback Basement Systems delivered a comprehensive solution for lasting basement improvement.
