The homeowner of an early 1900s Portland, Oregon, home reached out to TerraFirma to address persistent water intrusion in the basement. Having previously worked with TerraFirma on successful crawlspace projects, they trusted the team to provide a permanent solution.

System Design Specialist Ryan Bothman promptly evaluated the property and identified water entering along the front of the home as the main issue, possibly linked to a new driveway and downspout connection. While no direct problems were confirmed, a large tree overshadowing the home was complicating gutter functionality. To address these concerns, Ryan recommended installing a comprehensive drainage system, relocating the sump pump to the furnace room, and implementing the EverBrace™ Wall Restoration System to stabilize the failing foundation walls and ensure long-term structural integrity.

With the plan finalized, Foreman Bryon Huaraque and his crew executed the installation with precision, adhering to the homeowner’s requests to keep the feed line straight and minimize structural risks. Thanks to TerraFirma’s tailored solution, the homeowner now has peace of mind knowing the home is protected for years to come.
