This homeowner called upon Keystone Basement System because he had some cracks in the walls of the basement he was concerned about. Keystone very promptly made an appointment with a field inspector to go out to his home and speak with him about this problem before he conducted a very thorough inspection of the problem. The inspection was to ensure that the plan that he customized for this home was an accurate plan and would last the homeowner a lifetime of surety. The homeowner had expressed how this was an urgent matter to him because he wanted this to be his forever home. The field inspector then got right to work going over the walls with the utmost care and precise detail. The field inspector discovered that the walls were in need of some point cracking as well as 6 CarbonArmor carbon fiber straps. The CarbonArmor® Wall Reinforcing System is a state-of-the-art solution for bowing and cracking foundation walls. Using the same technology the Army Corps of Engineers developed to reinforce bomb shelters, skyscrapers, and bridges, we use CarbonArmor® to stabilize your basement walls.

The CarbonArmor® System includes flexible carbon fiber fabric straps that are up to 10 times stronger in tension than steel. Using high-strength epoxy resin, the carbon fiber straps are bonded to the interior face of the wall. The straps will stabilize the wall. This system requires no exterior excavation, installs quickly, and won't impact future basement finishing. The field inspector then went over the plan with the homeowner to ensure he understood not only the plan but also the future problems he might run into if he didn't have this issue fixed. The homeowner was more than understanding and asked for the field inspector to schedule this project for the first available date Keystone had to install this. The field inspector agreed and the project was put on the schedule for installation. Upon completion of the installation the homeowner was more than pleased to see that his basement walls were fixed and he didn't have to worry about them collapsing or deteriorating any further. The homeowner left a great 5-star review for Keystone and even recommended them to a close friend who was having a very similar issue.  

This homeowner called Keystone Basement Systems due to the fact that he had a wet basement and knew he could not fix it himself. Keystone promptly made him an appointment for the very next day, in which the very knowledgeable field inspector showed up with great urgency and precise timelines. The field inspector and the homeowner sat down and went over every one of the homeowner's concerns and questions he had about the problem area, before conducting his very thorough inspection of the issue at hand. The field inspector had to come up with a very custom plan to get this home dry again as the homeowner wanted to keep this house in the family for several years to come. The field inspector took very accurate measurements and performed several moisture tests to ensure that the plan was to the utmost accuracy. The plan was to install an internal drainage system as well as a single pump sump pump and a buried discharge line, The internal drainage system would have a cleanout for the service of the system and to ensure that nothing got clogged and dysfunctional.  The field inspector then finished up his inspection and went back to talk to the homeowner about the plan. This was done to make sure that the homeowner not only knew what the cause of the issue was but to also be informed of the fix and what could potentially happen if he did not get this fixed. The homeowner was very thrilled with the plan and so the field inspector returned to the office to schedule this project for installation.
