"So far so good - we havent' had any water since the work was done.  I was very happy with the salesman (Chris D.) as well as the crew who spent two days working the issue (Joe H. and TJ).  Everyone was so pleasant to work with and they really took the time to explain in detail the process and how it would work.  They did not try to "upsell" me on a large basement system as we really needed to address this issue before we would really know if there was a problem.  Some other companies did try the upsell while ignoring the gaping hole in the ground.
I cannot speak highly enough of my process with BWN, from the first estimate through my many questions through completion of work.  I almost cancelled the first appointment because of my other experriences with basement waterproofers - I just didn't think they were the company to address my issue.  When I called to cancel they said they really would like to come out - and I am so glad they did.
We are having some major melting now and so far no water.  I will be keeping my eye on it - if we do get water BWN will be my first call!

"Beautifully! Sal wrote a very detailed proposal, defining how his work would enhance the walkways, including reducing the mortar joints' width and realigning the concrete base so as to facilitate water's draining rather than standing on the walk. Over 12 days, he, two of his sons, and a very experienced crew worked steadily to make the proposal reality. I couldn't be more pleased."

"Great! I had this work performed in March 2018. Summer 2018 has seen constant rain and flash flooding. Previously I would have had several feet of water in my basement from the saturating rain and storms that came through together (5+inches in 6 hours with 12 inches in 48hrs in already wet ground). Basement has been completely dry. I thought work would be more noticeable. The concrete over the drain is nicely done. No complaints about the work, better results than I expected (I expected it to be more noticeable)."

"I had some extremely over grown areas that was almost impossible to maintain. So I reached out to J4 and within half a day Jeremy cleared out .25 of acre of brush, shrubs and small trees and now I have less maintenance and yard to enjoy. Thank you J4 and you always be our first call!!"

"Estimate was given and was exactly what I paid.  The owner and his son showed up on the appointed day and did the work in a matter of 3-4 days.  They had a large fan that kept the dust to a minimum and cleaned up after each days work.  Both were very careful not to track dirt in & out of the basement while working. 
About two weeks after they completed their work we had a bad storm in the area and rec'd quite a bit of rain.  I watched the new sump-pump they installed and it was filling up then...woosh... it was all gone and the water again began to fill it up.  Checked all the walls in the basement and none of them were wet so... basement is now dry!!! YEA!!!

"Not only are Simmers and Sons experts Masons they are accomplished artists as well. They work they performed was the highest quality. They take great pride in their work and see to the finest of details. From the very beginning of the project to the very end they were in constant communication as to the progress of the project. We actually went to the quarry to pick out the Bluestone for our patio with them which was a nice feature. They also spent time with us after the project was done to explain how to take care of our investment. They also keep in contact with us after the project was done to make sure their work is up to our standards. This was a very pleasant customer experience and would hire them again for any other masonry work we would need to have done."

"Installation was very clean considering all the dust they generated breaking up the concrete floor.  The crew was professional and answered all my questions.  They ran the drainage line off the side of my house and we tested the operation.  No issues, well done, clean work area."

FAQs for concrete foundation raise projects in Railroad, PA

On average, it takes two to seven days to physically raise your house. However, this does not include the preparation work, which is often the most lengthy process. The entire project, including preparation, obtaining permits, disconnecting utilities, and any subsequent landscaping, can take four to eight weeks. This timeline ensures everything is done safely and that your home remains structurally sound.

If proper safety protocols are not followed, raising a house can cause severe damage, as the process involves applying controlled force to the home's structure. The risks involved make it crucial to hire a skilled contractor who uses engineered methods to secure your home and prevent any harm to your household.

If your foundation shows signs of instability after raising your home, you might need to add structural support. A structural engineer can assess your foundation and recommend reinforcements to ensure your house stays stable and safe for the long term. Available support options include installing additional piers or pilings, reinforcing existing footings, or using steel beams to distribute the load more evenly.

You will need a structural engineer to assess your home before you begin. These professionals determine whether your house is suitable for lifting and identify any issues that could compromise its stability. Their expertise ensures that the project is designed correctly and all risks are managed to achieve a successful lift.
