Historic Hammonton Home: Fieldstone Foundation Resurfacing & Basement TLC

At South Jersey Waterproofing, we have the pleasure of revitalizing a historic home in Hammonton, NJ, breathing new life into its 100-year-old charm. This beautiful property proudly features a fieldstone foundation and its original wooden basement windows. When the homeowner contacts us for help with restoring and preserving the home’s structural integrity, we eagerly get to work!

Project Details

We start by resurfacing the old fieldstone foundation walls, giving careful attention to the natural beauty of the stones while reinforcing the foundation’s stability. Resurfacing an aged stone foundation calls for precision and respect for the structure’s historical character, and our team takes great pride in preserving this unique feature of the home. This thorough restoration process not only enhances the foundation’s appearance but also provides essential stabilization to keep the home safe and dry for years to come.

Next, we turn our attention to the basement floor, performing some much-needed TLC to improve both its functionality and aesthetics. Then, in a final and exciting upgrade, the homeowner chooses to replace the original wooden windows with energy-efficient vinyl ones. This choice significantly boosts insulation and lowers utility costs—all while preserving the home’s historic appeal.

Results

The transformation is fantastic! The basement now boasts a stronger, visually appealing foundation and a comfortable, energy-efficient atmosphere. Our work secures this Hammonton home’s legacy while adding modern efficiency to enhance its historic charm.
