Protecting Heritage Homes After the Storm
I remember the smell of wet silt and old wood hanging heavy in the air after the massive floods hit our area. A homeowner near the Mohawk River had a foundation exposed after a heavy rain washed out their retaining wall. We arrived to find heavy debris scattered across the yard and a gaping hole where the garden used to be. Without a solid perimeter, local kids or stray animals would've wandered right into that unstable excavation site, creating a massive liability for the family.
We hauled our heavy-duty steel panels straight to the curb and secured them within the hour using our specialized wind-resistant clamps. My crew worked through the mud to ensure every foot of the fence sat flush against the uneven grade. We didn't just slap it up; we anchored it deep so the wind wouldn't catch it. The family finally got some sleep knowing their property was locked down tight while the contractors prepped for the permanent repair work.
Matty's crew arrived when we were most stressed and secured our yard before any real trouble started.
