In a 100-year-old house in Phillipsburg, NJ, the homeowner faced a common yet concerning issue: plaster was sloughing off the basement walls, pointing to significant water seepage. A leaky basement not only poses a risk to the home’s overall structure but also limits what should be valuable, usable space. To combat the water intrusion, we installed a combination of advanced waterproofing solutions: the WaterGuard sub-floor perimeter drainage system, the TripleSafe Sump Pump, and CleanSpace. The WaterGuard system was meticulously set up to channel water from the foundation walls directly to the sump pump, hidden neatly beneath the concrete perimeter for an unobtrusive look. The installation of the TripleSafe Sump Pump ensured that water could be re-directed, preventing basement flooding even during power outages. The system's design, featuring triple protection, assures homeowners of uninterrupted performance regardless of conditions. With CleanSpace, we provided a long-lasting, antimicrobial barrier against moisture and humidity, thus protecting the integrity of the basement while enhancing overall indoor air quality.
Notice in the before photo how the concrete slabs around this West Deptford home's pool were sunken, being a tripping hazard. This homeowner worried about costly damage, particularly to the pool liner as well. With our PolyLevel system, our team, led by our concrete foreman Ramon, expertly leveled the slab. As the after photo shows, the poolside is now leveled.
Marlton homeowner had a termite problem in his crawl space. He contacted an exterminator who also pointed out that he had mold in the crawl space and should have it encapsulate to prevent further mold growth. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system and a SaniDry crawl space dehumidifier to stop the moisture which will prevent further mold growth! We also insulated the foundation walls of the crawl space which will help keep it warmer in the winter and therefore reducing the amount of energy the homeowner will need in the rooms above.
In Warrington, PA we helped this homeowner waterproof their basement to eliminate water seepage. As a solution, we installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System and WaterGuard French Drain System to keep the basement dry and healthy. The airtight lid protects the three sump pumps inside all while preventing water from evaporating back into the basement air.
Over time, the homeowner in Warrington, PA, noticed signs of concrete settlement around their backyard patio, raising concerns about the overall curb appeal and potential tripping hazards. Fortunately, after reaching out to our team at Quality 1st, we were able to identify an effective and dependable repair solution. Our team successfully lifted and restored the settled concrete using our advanced PolyLevel Foam Injections. This innovative approach not only restored the surface but also enhanced the load-bearing capacity of the entire walkway by filling voids beneath the surface caused by soil displacement. With this robust repair strategy in place, we have effectively resolved the settlement issues and improved safety conditions for the homeowner and their family for years to come.
