Woodford Bros

What Woodford Bros does

Woodford Bros., Inc. is a privately held, family-owned home services contractor founded in 1962 and headquartered in Apulia Station, New York. The company specializes in foundation and structural repair, basement waterproofing, crawl space repair and encapsulation, concrete lifting and leveling, radon mitigation, and basement finishing for residential and commercial customers across Central New York. Owners Tom and Mike Woodford, known locally as the "Basement Brothers," oversee operations staffed by trained technicians and design specialists who deliver work through free on-site inspections and no-obligation estimates, with phone-based scheduling and dispatch supporting a direct field-sales motion.

The company's core product portfolio is built on its status as a premier dealer for three manufacturer networks: Supportworks (foundation repair systems including EverBrace, Geo-Lock Wall Anchors, PowerBrace, CarbonArmor, Push/Helical/Slab Piers, SmartJack, PolyLevel), Basement Systems (waterproofing systems including TripleSafe sump pumps, SaniDry dehumidifiers, BrightWall panels, WaterGuard/FlowGuard drainage), and CleanSpace (encapsulation liners and accessories). The company also holds authorized dealer status in the National Radon Defense network. Patent-pending proprietary work includes the Hide-A-Way Anchor Covers product. Marketing relies on the company website, customer testimonials, before/after galleries, case studies, BBB accreditation (A+ since 2019), and TV advertising.

Revenue is generated primarily through project-based one-time services for foundation and waterproofing installations, supplemented by the Woodford Care Club annual maintenance subscription that creates recurring revenue from sump pump servicing, dehumidifier maintenance, and system inspections. Customer mix is dominated by residential homeowners, with a secondary commercial/government vertical. Pricing is not publicly disclosed but follows a free-inspection, written-estimate, warranty-backed transaction model. The company self-reports 50,000+ completed foundation repair projects and is recognized in 2024 as a Top 50 Foundation Repair Dealer, Top 30 Concrete Repair Dealer, and Top 10 CarbonArmor Dealer in North America by Supportworks.
