New Kensington, PA Basement Waterproofing | Foundation Repair

In the welcoming neighborhood of New Kensington, PA, a homeowner faced a common yet bothersome issue: uneven concrete on their front sidewalk. This unevenness wasn't just a mere inconvenience; it was a constant reminder of the potential hazards it posed to visiting family and friends. Turning to Keystone Basement Systems, the homeowner sought not just a quick fix, but a reliable and enduring solution. From the moment they made that first call, our Customer Care Specialist prioritized understanding their concerns and promptly scheduled a convenient home inspection. Our System Design Specialist arrived with a meticulous approach, understanding that every concrete challenge demands insight and expertise. After a comprehensive inspection, we recommended a solution that was not only efficient but aligned with our commitment to sustainability and durability: the PolyLevel® system and NexusPro® Joint Sealant. As our dedicated production team arrived at the site, they committed to treating the project as if they were tending to their own homes. With precision, pea-sized holes were drilled into the uneven slabs. Through these small portals, high-strength polyurethane foam was injected, filling voids and lifting the slabs back to their rightful positions. Complementing this, NexusPro® Joint Sealant was expertly applied, ensuring all joints were protected from potential moisture, safeguarding the foundation beneath. The outcome was clear—a level, smooth sidewalk that restored not just the curb appeal of the home, but also provided safety and reassurance for the homeowner. In this small stretch of New Kensington, a quiet yet powerful transformation had occurred, echoing the core of our mission: redefining what it means to be a contractor by delivering peace of mind and long-lasting results.

In the heart of New Kensington, PA, a homeowner faced a persistent challenge—an uneven concrete floor causing more than just a tripping hazard; it was affecting the serenity of their home. Uneven flooring can disrupt peace and pose safety risks, and the homeowner needed a reliable solution that would ensure their home's safety and stability. Recognizing the gravity of this issue, they reached out to us at Keystone Basement Systems. Our process began when our Customer Care Specialist promptly scheduled an inspection. Our System Design Specialist then arrived on-site, equipped to diagnose the problem accurately. Through careful inspection, it became evident that the floor had settled unevenly due to voids beneath the concrete slabs—a common but resolvable issue. To address this, we employed our PolyLevel system. Our skilled production team drilled pea-sized holes strategically into the affected slabs. Then, with precision akin to a delicate operation, we injected polyurethane foam to fill the voids. This innovative method allowed the foam to expand and effectively lift the slabs back to their original positions. To safeguard against future issues, we applied our NexusPro Joint Sealant. NexusPro is engineered to thrive under various conditions, sealing the cracks and joints to prevent water intrusion—providing a level of protection that traditional sealants simply can’t match. By the time our team wrapped up the job, the once uneven and troubling concrete floor was restored to its rightful state—level, secure, and stable. The homeowner could walk freely once more, free from worry, and their peace of mind was renewed. At Keystone Basement Systems, we’re not just about the repair.

In New Kensington, PA, a homeowner reached out to Keystone Basement Systems after noticing cold floors and increasing concern about moisture beneath their home. The crawlspace was not only uncomfortable but also a potential hazard to the home’s structure and air quality. Our inspection revealed poor drainage and signs of foundation settlement—issues that called for immediate, professional attention. We recommended a two-pronged repair strategy to address both the environmental and structural challenges. To start, we encapsulated the crawlspace using Drainage Matting, TerraBlock insulation, SilverGlo panels, and our trusted CleanSpace liner system. This powerful combination sealed out moisture, improved energy efficiency, and transformed the crawlspace into a clean, dry, usable area. The drainage layer beneath the encapsulation materials ensures any groundwater is directed away efficiently, preventing future buildup. On the foundation side, we installed Push Piers to permanently stabilize the settling structure. These heavy-duty steel piers were driven deep to load-bearing soil, restoring the home’s stability and preventing further movement. The homeowner now enjoys warmer floors, cleaner air, and complete peace of mind. This repair was about more than just fixing a problem—it was about protecting an investment and restoring comfort.

Using LawnScape Outlets, you can send water away from the foundation while camouflaging the end of the pipe. This helps to prevent water from entering the basement. It also keeps the foundation from settling, which can cause cracks and other damage to the structure. 

The homeowner had a leaking basement for a number of years and had finally reached a point where they wanted to fix the issue.  The damage had increased over the years and the homeowner was worried that structural damage would soon follow.  The issue started as a musty basement odor, but soon turned into puddles on the basement floor and then flooding.  They called Keystone Basement Systems to find out what could be done to address this issue.

The homeowner wanted to keep the whole basement dry so we installed WaterGuard around the perimeter.  They wanted to keep the whole basement dry all of the time so we added a TripleSafe pumping station with back up protection in case of a power outage, tripped circuit or mechanical issue on the primary pump.  This gave the owner significant comfort as the system was designed correctly with redundancy.  Lastly, to eliminate musty odors, a high performance Sedona Dehumidifier was installed.  The Owner took advantage of our extremely easy to use Home Repair Financing and had only a low monthly installment to pay each month with no pre-payment penalty.

In closing, the homeowner was very impressed and pleased.
