The Problems We Fix on Every Block in Tottenville

  • Horizontal cracks and bowing basement walls from high groundwater and clay pressure
  • Garages and additions sinking 6–12 inches away from the main house
  • Living-room and kitchen floors sloping toward the water
  • Water in the basement every high tide or storm on Hylan Boulevard and Surf Avenue
  • Diagonal cracks above windows and doors on upper floors
  • Tree roots lifting driveways, sidewalks, and pushing against footings
  • Differential settlement on filled ground near the Arthur Kill

We’ve corrected every one of these from Ward’s Point to Mount Loretto, Bentley Street to Yetman Avenue, and everywhere in between.

Tottenville is Staten Island’s southernmost neighborhood and one of its most beautiful: sprawling Colonials, Victorians, and ranch homes built from the 1920s through the 1980s, many just steps from Raritan Bay and the Arthur Kill. Most sit on shallow concrete footings poured over high-groundwater blue clay and sandy fill, with massive oaks, maples, and waterfront moisture pushing against foundations year-round. Add freeze-thaw cycles, storm-surge flooding, and decades of soil movement, and you get cracked basement walls, sinking garages, sloping living-room floors, separating front stoops, and ECB violations that can stop a sale or turn a dream home into a nightmare.

 

Protect Your Tottenville Home Before the Next Storm Surge
