What started as a flooded basement in Brooklyn, NY is now a clean, finished space protected from future water intrusion. After installing a WaterGuard system and SuperSump pump, we completed the transformation with wall and floor upgrades designed to withstand moisture. A night-and-day difference for this homeowner!
A homeowner in Brooklyn, New York reported water seeping in through their basement walls and puddling on the floor. This happens because the soil around the home's foundation is poorly compacted and loose. Over time, this loose soil settles and becomes saturated which creates hydrostatic pressure, pushing water through the foundation walls. This issue can have many negative effects such as increased energy bills, dust mites, mold growth, and insects and pests.
The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Jonathan Seminerio, was able to provide an inspection and help them find a solution to fix this issue. He suggested they install new wall panels to replace the water-damaged walls. Our foreman, Wilver Cardoza, installed the EverLast Wall Panel System since the original drywall was damaged by water. This system is waterproof and mold-proof and protects the basement walls from letting in water. These walls also give the basement a modern and fresh appearance.
A year after their SuperSump Pump was installed, a homeowner in Brooklyn, NY knew it was time to schedule its annual maintenance. They contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and scheduled an appointment. Our Service Team arrived at the home and provided thorough maintenance for the system. They did a final clean-up before completing the job. The SuperSump Pump System looked as good as new and the homeowner was very happy with the results!
This homeowner needed extra support in their crawl space after they noticed stair step cracks. They noticed the floor above the crawl space was no longer level which indicated that their wooden beams underneath were sagging. Our Foundation Foreman, Victor and his crew installed 9 SmartJacks across the crawl space beams to provide additional support and stabilization.
