Ridgeback Basement Systems Before & After Photos

In Fredericton, New Brunswick, a homeowner's sinking foundation had led to severe water issues in their basement. As you see in the before photo, water intrusion had progressively worsened over time. Our team at Ridgeback Basement Systems tackled the problem head-on by reinforcing the foundation and implementing a comprehensive waterproofing system. Using IceGuard, SuperSump, CleanSpace, and WaterGuard, the basement now enjoys robust protection against moisture intrusion. Notice in the after photo how our effective solution not only addresses immediate concerns but also ensures long-term stability and security for the home's foundation.

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.

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.
