"Thank you so much for coming to my rescue in a time of need! My basement was flooding, water coming in through the foundation, and I was exhausted from trying to keep up with it. You guys realized the importance of prioritizing me, and put in a sump pump to save the day. You are the best!" - Joanne Lipsy

"We've used A-1 a couple of times and are always pleased. All the cracks that have been repaired have held up beautifully and we are now enjoying a newly finished basement with no concerns about water due to the cracks!" - Brendan Kenahan

"Rich was very professional and sent his technician Andrew to do the work. Wasted no time, just stayed with it. He was very knowledgeable and indicated if there was any problems they would come back and fix them. No more leaks! It is good to know there are still companies that care and deal with the issues." - Rich B.

"A couple of weeks ago we had A1 out to do some work on the bulkhead at our home in Woodstock Valley, CT. So far we are extremely pleased with the performance of the injection, I'd say 2 days after the work we had 4 inches of rain in one evening, not a drop came in. I can sleep easier now about the decision we made last month to finish our basement, we love having the extra, dry, living space." - Ron Sanderson

Rich is a reputable and responsible businessman who we have worked with several times. His response to us is always prompt and professional. He is able to schedule appointments and provides pricing in advance of performing his service and there is no up-selling involved. We would use Rich and A-1 again and we refer him often with our complete confidence

I cannot thank you enough. What an incredible company you have. It's comforting to know that if there's another problem in the future, I know who to call!! - Barbara Salzman

"I would have to say your company is " A 1", in my book. I will see you again in the spring." - Valerie Curley

Protect Your Home, Health, and Wealth With The A-1 Method

Joseph Coupal - Tuesday, September 14, 2010

Our 20 years in the home protection business reveals that nearly ALL homeowners never consider water to be a dire threat to their home and family's safety and stability.  I am not just talking to those of you who live inland.  I am also talking to those of you who live near the ocean, tidal basins, lakes, streams, and rivers.  Those who live near water certainly fear and respects the threat of a wall of water that can arrive with a storm.  However almost all of you do not have a fear of the trickles of water that can do as much or more damage than the wall.  

The A-1 Foundation Crack Repair Method that we employ to protect you, your home, and your family is extensive.  Please take a moment to consider the four “foundational” processes that we use to protect you:
 
Foundation repair - A broken foundation does more than just cause cracks and make your basement walls bow and lean--it can affect the entire building! In extreme cases, a failing foundation can even render a building unlivable. If you have noticed nails popping, doors and windows not fitting into their frames, sloping floors, and other sudden changes in your home, a sinking or damaged foundation may be the source of your problem.

Basement waterproofing - A common, very effective method of basement waterproofing is the sump pump. We install a sump pump and then build a trench pitched toward the pump along the interior perimeter of the basement. We fill the trench with large perforated pipe and then cover it with a patch of concrete. This pipe redirects floodwater to the pump and then safely out of your house.  

Foundation waterproofing - The installation of a hydrophobic membrane around the interior or exterior of your foundation walls is another way to eradicate wet basements. This practice is varied and is the most common method used in new home construction.  The problem is that the quality of foundation waterproofing varies with the quality of the builder.  We see quality of work that ranges from superior to useless attempts that never deserved to pass inspection.  Our method involves carefully excavate the land surrounding your existing home followed by the installation of an exterior membrane. Foundation waterproofing is an especially good idea if you live in an area with a high water table or frequent storms.

Mold remediation - All of the aforementioned basement and foundation protection methods help prevent the collection of standing water and deter both water damage and the unhealthy effects of mold and mildew.  Should previous water damage introduce active mold and mildew to you personal residence or commercial building space, we will eradicate it for you quickly and permanently.  Mold is not only unattractive and destructive, but it can also cause a variety of health disorders and diseases, including asthma, certain cancers, and even death!  Annual inspections for mold are absolutely one of the kindest things you can do for your family.

Your basement is place where water simply does not belong.  Let’ put the A-1 method to work for you!
