Quality 1st Basement Systems Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Berlin, NJ was tired of constantly worrying about the trip hazard on their front porch. The concrete beneath the slate had sunk over the years, creating a gap between the step and the porch. After deciding that they did not want to go through the process of replacing the entire porch, the homeowner contacted Quality 1st for a solution. Our Concrete Repair Specialist, Andy, inspected the area and determined that installing PolyLevel (our concrete lifting and leveling solution) would effectively remove the trip hazard. On the day of the installation, Ash and his team prepared the area and completed the installation. Once the installation was complete, the porch was level again and the homeowner no longer had to worry about anyone tripping while walking up to their home. 

A concrete porch of a house in Berlin, NJ was experiencing sinking and settling concrete on one side of the patio. Quality 1st Basements came to the homeowner's aid and lifted the side that had sunk with PolyLevel solution. The PolyLevel foam is lightweight but strong enough to lift heavy concrete back up so that it is level. 

A homeowner in Berlin, NJ noticed their concrete backyard patio was sinking so they contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems for a solution. We used our PolyLevel Injections to lift, level and stabilize the concrete area permanently. 

In a residence with a finished basement, water leaks can infiltrate and compromise the integrity of the living space in various ways. For this property in Berlin, NJ, water intrusion was becoming trapped beneath the vinyl flooring, resulting in damage to the basement area. The homeowner sought to safeguard their property and prevent further exposure to harmful water conditions. Our team conducted an assessment of the basement and implemented a solution that addressed the homeowner's concerns. We replaced the existing flooring with our ThermalDry Elite Plank Flooring. Constructed from inorganic materials, these planks replicate the appearance of real hardwood flooring while eliminating the risks of rot and water entrapment. ThermalDry Planks feature a pegged underside that creates a thermal break between the concrete subfloor and the new flooring, while also allowing any leaked water to flow underneath without becoming trapped. Additionally, we installed our EverLast Walling on half of the wall to mitigate the risk of water damage at the base, where moisture is more prevalent. With these innovative products, this basement now boasts a beautiful and waterproof finish.
