Job Stories From New Minas, NS
Sagging Floors Are No Match for Our SmartJack System- New Minas

Recently, we at Ridgeback Basement Systems had the pleasure of assisting a homeowner from New Minas, NS, who was experiencing a troubling issue with their home. They noticed the floors were leaning and sagging, which happens to be a distress signal of an underlying issue with the foundation. Upon inspection, it was clear their cinderblock foundation was failing, a problem that can't be ignored, as it challenges the integrity and safety of the entire home. After our homeowner reached out, our our team, we promptly scheduled a thorough inspection with one of our experienced System Design Specialists. This step is vital to ensure we understand the full scope of the problem and engineer a precise, long-term solution. For this home, our specialist recommended the installation of SmartJacks, a solid support system designed to address and correct the sagging floor issue directly at its root. The installation process involves strategic placement and precise adjustment to lift and stabilize the compromised flooring and foundation effectively. The beauty of SmartJack is its ability to provide an immediate and durable solution, ensuring the home returns to its level best and remains safe and comfortable for the homeowners. The end results? The previously leaning and sagging floors will be corrected, leaving the resident relieved and their home significantly improved. This appointment It was another testament to our mission at Ridgeback Basement Systems - delivering excellence in solutions for solving home foundation issues quickly and definitively.

Cold and Wet Craw Space- Canaan

Recently, in Canaan, NS, we encountered a homeowner grappling with an unwelcoming problem: an inadequately insulated and poorly sealed crawl space. Understanding the critical role a crawl space plays in the overall health of a home, the homeowner reached out to our experienced team at Ridgeback Basement Systems for a sustainable solution that aligns with our mission of delivering a remarkable customer experience and effective home remedies. Our System Design Specialist swung into action, inspecting every nook and cranny of the crawl space to diagnose the underlying issues accurately. Identifying that the crawl space needed both waterproofing and insulation improvements, a comprehensive solution was recommended, crafted specifically for the needs of this home.

To attack the problem at its roots, our team proposed a triple-threat approach: installing CleanSpace, SilverGlo, and the SaniDry Sedona. CleanSpace, a robust vapor barrier, is tailored to encapsulate the crawl space, humorously banning any unwanted moisture and drafts from below. Additionally, SilverGlo insulation panels were suggested to guard the home against the cold, all while improving energy efficiency without fail. Lastly, the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier steps in to clear the air, ensuring the crawl space remained dry, healthy, and hospitable.

Our dedicated installation team transformed the crawl space into a functional and healthy component of the home. The job tackled everything head-on — from the initial consultation, through to the expert advice and professional execution, leaving no stone unturned and ensuring an all-encompassing clean-up post project installation.

Project Location: New Minas, NS
We have water the comes into our basement not with every rainfall but with heavy rain. The basement is finished.
Project Location: New Minas, NS
We have some drainage issues that normally aren't a problem, but really appear when we get excessive rain (which we did tonight). We get some seeping water through the crack in the wall and the floor of a small section of the basement, but are also getting a large amount of water that flows directly against the house when there is heavy rain, leaving it with nowhere to go but through our basement door. Considering a french drain across our driveway to redirect some of this water flow away from the house. Hope to talk soon.
