OSHA (Occupational Safety & Health Administration) defines a trench as a “narrow excavation made below the surface of the ground.” In the basement waterproofing industry, the trench is created along the side of an underground foundation wall in order to expose the problem area. A section or all of a foundation that is leaking will be exposed in order to repair it. Waterproofing a foundation by excavating the leaking wall is a very common procedure.
Sadly, many companies do not create safe trench environments and many workers have been badly injured or even killed as a result. The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) states that 271 workers died from 2000 to 2006 from trench cave-in accidents.
You can read more about that here.
Because of this problem, OSHA has created strict guidelines to protect workers from harm. The guidelines are as follows:
First, all surface encumbrances must be removed or secured. Once completed, all utility lines need to be clearly marked. In Pennsylvania this is done by calling Pennsylvania One Call System or “PA1 Call” as it is known. Once these utility lines are found, they must be secured as needed to prevent damage or harm to workers.
Establishing the type of soil the trench will be dug in as well as the overall depth are the next key factors to consider. Soil type is important to note as it will dictate how steep the side walls of the trench can safely be. There are three basic soil classifications to understand:
- Type A, which is a cohesive undisturbed soil that is predominately clay.
- Type B soil is angular gravel or predominantly silty soil.
- Type C is predominately sand. Each type of soil has its own maximum allowable slope.
The Maximum Allowable Slope means the steepest incline of an excavation face that is acceptable for the most favorable site conditions as protection against cave-ins, and is expressed
as a ratio of horizontal distance to vertical rise (H:V).
In trenches less than 20 feet deep, Type A soil can have a slope 3/4:1 or 53 degrees, Type B soil can have a slope of 1:1 or 45 degrees and Type C soil can have a maximum slope of 1 1/2:1 or 34 degrees. By following these guidelines trenches will have the greatest chance of not caving in.
The next step is a means of egress. This is a way out of the trench for workers and can be steps, ladders or any other safe means of exit. The next aspect is to provide workers with warning vests should the trench be located near moving traffic or dump trucks to make them more visible to vehicle traffic. If dump trucks are loaded, no worker shall be permitted underneath loads handled or lifted so to prevent falling hazards. Additional information on this section is provided by OSHA Code 1926.601(b)(6) and can be looked up at the www.osha.gov website.
If additional bracing is required (due to increased trench depth) the trench can be outfitted with additional support in the form of “trench shields” or “trench boxes.” These are structures inserted into the trench which can withstand the forces imposed on them by cave-in and thereby protect the worker. Please refer to OSHA Code 1926.652(c)(3) or (c)(4) for additional details.
Once you have created a safe open trench, it is necessary to ensure that it remains safe going forward. Daily inspections, as well as inspections after rainstorms, should be conducted by a competent person prior to work beginning. If the competent person finds evidence of a potential cave-in, they should remove all workers from potential hazard until the conditions are made safe again.
In closing, a safe trench is imperative. Not only are workers lives on the line, but the homeowner you are working for must also be sure they are working with a professional and knowledgeable company.
Should the homeowner hire a company that is operating without Workman’s Compensation Insurance, they could be liable for harm of a worker while on their property. In the end, be sure to double check your contractors’ Workman’s Comp Policy. It is the law that they have such coverage.
At Keystone Basement Systems, we go the extra mile to ensure that ALL guidelines are followed, and safety is of our primary concern.
]]>Sure everyone wants their holiday times to be perfect. It just has to be! It’s when relatives come out of the woodwork and see how you live. Must have the whole family at their best behavior and of course — your house must be spotless!
Unfortunately, there is something called Murphy’s Law stating – “Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong!”.
Here’s a list of a few holiday hazzards that can end up to be quite devastating!
1. Christmas tree fire – Pray this one never happens it can be fatal.
2. Spiked Egg Nog – Another possible fatality can occur when drinking and driving.
3. Pets become ill – They get sick just like adults. When it happens on a holiday, it can really stress you out — especially if you need to go to a Vet on Christmas Day!
4. Burglary happens – Use precautions such as possibly doing things to appear you are home and not out shopping.
5. Internet scams – You need to be on the lookout for this everyday of the year.
6. Travel disasters – These can happen in an instant. Sometimes of course, it can be a natural disaster such as a storm, hurricane or flood.
7. Medical emergency – Sometimes we feel we can’t get sick since it’s Thanksgiving or Christmas. Unfortunately, we can’t predict this — but can be as prepared as possible should it occur.
8. Fireplace fire – Soot and dirt can definitely put a damper on your stressful enough day. It can also bring a possible danger to your home.
9. Extension cord fires – Be responsible and watch out for frayed wires regularly.
10. Forgot to thaw the turkey! – I know this one seems almost impossible to do, but it does happen more than you think. Keep your To Do List handy!
11. Burnt turkey – There is such a thing as a timer. Use it.
12. Unexpected company arrives and there’s not enough places to sit and eat at the dinner table.
13. Accidents in the kitchen – A good rule is to keep small children out of the kitchen while preparing the holiday meal when possible. Sure adults can have accidents too, but it may be more likely for a child to have one.
14. Host gets sick – Hopefully you have another family member who can pitch in.
15. Plumbing backs up – This is definitely one of the worst things in my opinion along with #16. Keep that plunger handy near the toilet.
16. Basement leak – If you happen to be entertaining in your basement gameroom, well this could spoil your day (depending on how much water is getting through)!
17. TV doesn’t work – If it’s Thanksgiving and there is no football viewing, well it may just cause a riot! If you have one of those televisions that requires a new bulb , I’d definitely purchase an extra one, just in case.
18. Computer doesn’t work – Kids may have a difficult time with this one. Imagine having their friends and cousins over all at the same time – WITHOUT A COMPUTER!!
Well, as you can see, the list could go on and on. One of the worst ones to happen in my opinion, is #16. When there’s water leaking around the area where you are entertaining, it can not only be dangerous — but embarrassing as well!
Do your best to be prepared should you experience the consequences of “Murphy’s Law” whereby as I mentioned, “what can go wrong — will go wrong!”
The unexpected does happen and if you happen to experience #16 — we here at Keystone Basement System can help.

KBS has been solving issues of Basement Waterproofing since 2003 and we definitely realize the significance of high quality sump pumps. We even tailor the repair plan that is specific to your home or building. Unlike our competitors who use one method and force it on every foundation, we customize your solution so that you can realize your basements potential without fear of future problems. ‘Zoeller Pumps Company’ is our right hand for solving such issues. The quality of their pumps is far above many other manufacturers. It has contributed a lot to our success.
Certain features that a typical sump pump must have are the following:
• The sump pump must be made of heavy duty materials rather than cheap plastics. It should be made of cast iron. Plastic pumps wear away easily and do not serve its purpose when needed most.
• The dewatering pump must be elevated to avoid clogging of pipes due to debris. Collected debris could even lead to pump failure. Hence, the elevated pump will help in constant water flow and will not allow any waste to get stuck.
• A back-up system to consistently provide electricity is essential for constant flow of water. An inverter can be useful at times when there is no electricity.
For all our problems, Zoeller Family of Water Solutions has the very best solution – from residential waste and clean water pump solutions to commercial and municipal solutions engineered to exact standards. They have a huge list of product categories which includes Utility, Pedestal, Gas Engine Pumps; Sump, Effluent, Dewatering; Sewage & Dewatering; Hazardous Environment; Grinder Pumps; Specialty Products; Potable Water Systems; Package Systems & Basins. We specifically use the M53 series pump in all of our systems. The product specifications are:
Horsepower: .3 HP
Volts: 115 or 230 V
Hertz: 60 Hz
Thermally protected: Yes
RPM: 1550
Impeller Type: Non-clogging vortex impeller
Cord Length: 9 ft. standard automatic, 15 ft. standard non-automatic
Cord Type: UL listed, 3-wire cord and plug
Following are the features of the model:
• Cast iron switch case, motor and pump housing
• Engineered thermoplastic base
• Engineered, glass filled, plastic impeller with metal insert
• Stainless steel guard and handle
• Lower and upper bearings, oil fed cast iron
• 53-0001 weight: 23 lbs
This amazing product (ZOELLER Sump Pump 3/10 HP 115 Volts Model # M53) takes care of both commercial and residential dewatering issues. We are highly satisfied using this product and had no complaints till date.

Major attention to cleanliness should be given during rainy season. Water clogging is the most common problem which every house has to face during heavy downpour. Gutters and downspouts must be cleaned more frequently to avoid overflowing and congestion of water. A clean and hygienic environment is highly essential to stay away from the attack of flu and viral fever. Hence, it is always better to clean up the gutters at regular intervals. Excessive water clogging dampens the timber roof and leads to rotting. A gutter guard will be a solution to all such problems as it will prevent water overflow onto roads. Tank water which usually gets dirty due to gutter overflow can be avoided.
Most of the gutters and downspouts get clogged due to leaves and debris that stay for a long time. People especially living in Pittsburg and surrounding areas are experiencing fall and dry leaves are falling off, making your gutter look like a garbage bin full of leaves. If gutters stay unchecked for long then it might severely damage the foundation of the house and in worst cases it may also lead to basement flooding. To avoid such circumstances, it is better to always stay alert and take immediate steps.
When the gutter is dry, it is much easier to clean as all you have to do is collect all debris and leaves and put it in the trash bag. However, if the gutter is damp then you might need to do a lot of labor to get it cleaned. You will need a bucket to clean a damp gutter. For cleaning downspouts, you have to manually pour in lots of water with high pressure to clear the pipe. You can also use a plumbing snake to clear the obstruction in the downspout.
You can ensure that you have a clean gutter by knowing the following things:
• No leaves or other organic matter
• Free from spiders, mosquitoes and other pests
• No birds or their nests
• No broken pieces of roof tiles
• No animals and pets accidentally trapped
• No flying debris above the gutter during strong winds and storms
Keystone Basement Systems is always ready to advise people on key maintenance issues. Knowing the fact that Pennsylvania’s freezing climate amplifies water clogging and destroys the drainage system, we let our people know the consequences of avoiding these factors. We are a bunch of certified consultants specializing in Mold Removal, Foundation Structural Repair and Basement Waterproofing. We also offer free inspections and estimates to homeowners with foundation problems.

Denying the fact that nothing is free in this world, ‘Keystone Basement Systems’ time and again comes up with innovative ideas to give free services to their clients both current and prospective. Unlike others this company offers a Free Home Evaluation to any and everyone in Pennsylvania, Ohio, & West Virginia. All they have to do is, just fill up a request form in the website, fix up an appointment and an evaluator will visit the owner of a house to provide a comprehensive report. Being the owner of Keystone Basement Systems, Aaron Stull himself visits around 10 potential clients a week to advice them on their home properties. Experts in handling Basement Issues, KBS also pays a referral amount of $50 to every referral that resulted in new business. So if you have a friend, family member, colleague or neighbor who is facing a basement issue, fill in their information and we are all set to help them out.
Home Evaluation Report is a document which gives as estimate of the market value of a particular home property. According to International Valuation Standards, “Market value is the estimated amount for which a property should exchange on the date of valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s-length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently, and without compulsion”. An owner if planning to sell will have to hire a professional who will do the property evaluation. However, as KBS believes, there are free lunches; they provide this service for free.
Imagine the value that you will receive once you have your free evaluation. Not only will you fully understand the cause of the issue, but you will know the appropriate action steps needed to solve the issue and move forward. So give us a call at 800-771-3244 and we would love to schedule a free, no hassle discussion at your home.
Apart from saving a few dollars on getting a detailed estimation report, the knowledge obtained in the process in invaluable. This particular report can also help an owner to check the ways to increase its property value. One of the main reasons for a lower property value is the presence of water leakages, inefficient drainage system, presence of molds, etc. Hence, Keystone Basement Systems will not only give you a free report but will also solve basement issues (if you have one) such as mold removal, water leakages and foundation structural repair.

When talking about real estate US citizens recurrently refer National Association of Realtors. It is a trade association in the United States which includes all aspects of residential and commercial real estate industries. It clearly explains each and every aspect of home buying and selling and acts as a bible for people planning to invest in real estate industry. They believe that sellers should be smart enough to get the maximum value out of the property. Home inspection is one major step towards selling a house property. It is always advised that a seller must be well-prepared to face the inspection. By well-prepared we mean that all the loopholes of the property must by removed to avoid reporting of damages and leakages. During inspection if any leakage or damage is found, it will certainly reflect on the market value of the property.
Damages and leakages are some of the most common, but ignored, factors which highly affect the market value. An intelligent seller will invest some money in repairing the damages and rectifying all leakages. This small amount of investment will add up to many thousands of dollars to the property. Hence, profit can be more.
The home inspector who will be allotted for inspection will have a close look at each and every corner of the property. Their responsibility is to evaluate the market value of the property. They also advise the sellers on various points which will be helpful to increase the value. Apart from helping sellers, their inspection helps buyers to make a good purchase decision. The three main categories of inspection are Safety, Damage and Money. They check how safe the property is at times of hazards such as fire, earthquake, etc. If some repair needs to be done then how much money is involved? And they also categorize the normal wear and tear of the property as major and minor damages. Usually flooring, roof structure, presence of molds and water leakages are the main damages observed in a property.
Almost every house in USA has a basement for car parking. Common basements issues are wet corners, faulty drainage system, development of black molds, mildew smell, etc. These have to be taken care of well before hand. Keystone Basement Systems is a Pittsburgh Basement Contractor specializing in Mold Removal, Foundation Structural Repair and Basement Waterproofing. We offer free inspections and estimates to homeowners with foundation problems. Keystone’s basement specialists and certified mold re-mediators will tailor a solution to best fit your individual needs and budget.
If a seller has made a commitment to the home inspector to make repairs and replacements of damaged parts, it is obligatory to finish all repairs as it may also lead in canceling the deal. Hence, if all damages are removed on time, the market value of the house property automatically increases. An addition in the market value will be greatly welcomed by seller who might obviously be in need of finance.
