AMS Builders: Damage Restoration & Excavation in Chester, NY

Common signs include unexplained spikes in your water bill, damp spots on walls or floors, a musty smell, or the sound of running water when no fixtures are on. In many Chester homes, these leaks cause slab damage or hidden mold. AMS Builders first locates the leak using non-invasive methods, then carefully opens the affected area. We repair or replace the damaged pipe, dry the structure completely, and restore the floor, wall, or foundation. Our team also handles any mold remediation needed to ensure your home is safe and healthy.

Standing water or poor drainage around your foundation can lead to basement flooding and slab leaks. We use excavation and trench digging to install French drains, reroute downspout runoff, or improve yard grading. This directs water away from your home’s foundation. Our team is experienced with Chester’s soil conditions, whether you’re near the hills or flatter areas. We trench carefully to avoid hitting existing utilities, then backfill and restore your landscaping. It’s a practical, long-term solution to keep your home dry.
