Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Montville, New Jersey was looking to replace their old flooring to prevent any future water damage. The most common cause of water damage in a basement is caused by water in the surrounding soil of the foundation. During periods of heavy rainfall, the water becomes saturated and creates hydrostatic pressure that pushes water and moisture through the floors.

The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Laura McIntyre, was able to help them with a solution. She suggested they install new flooring that is waterproof. Our foreman, Wilver Cardoza, installed the ThermalDry Elite Plank Flooring into the basement. This flooring is not only waterproof but also mold proof. These planks interlock together and have raised pegs at the bottom to suspend them above the cold and damp concrete floor. If there is a leak or water gets into the basement, the floors can easily be removed, dried out, and reinstalled without having to replace whole new flooring. Now, the basement has a bright and modern appearance! 

This homeowner in Montville, New Jersey has been a loyal customer of Quality 1st Basement Systems for over ten years! Each year, our service team provides sump pump maintenance to thoroughly clean and inspect the system. Annual maintenance is vital to ensure your sump pump has a prolonged lifespan and stays clean.

This wet East Hanover, NJ basement had water coming in through the walls and floor joints. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed CleanSpace on the walls to stop water vapor from getting in through the concrete. The CleanSpace Vapor Barrier allows water to drain into the WaterGuard basement waterproofing system keeping this basement dry all of the time.

To stop window leaks and allow more natural light into the basement, our System Design Specialist, Steve V, recommended our SunHouse Window wells. The SunHouse Window Well will not rust or rot providing great curb appeal around the landscaping of your home. Keeping unwanted drafts, humidity or water out all while providing more sunlight in.
