Quality 1st Basement Systems Before & After Photos

This Manalapan, NJ homeowner was planning on closing their pool for the winter. Before they could close it up, they needed to have it repaired after finding the edge had sunken one to two inches. We had our System Design Specialist, Andrew G., inspect and provide an estimate for the homeowner. After fully inspecting the problem, Andrew knew our crew would be able to easily lift the sunken edge using the Polylevel Injection. After the installation was done by our crew, the pool edge was leveled and ready to be closed up for the winter. 

A homeowner in Manalapan, New Jersey noticed their pool patio was sinking. This can be caused by soil shrinkage and expansion. Changes in the amount of moisture in the soil can affect the soil underneath the concrete slab. When the soil gets wet, it holds water and expands. When the soil becomes dry, it begins to shrink creating voids under the slab. The homeowner called Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Dylan McDonald, provided an inspection. He suggested they use a polyurethane foam that will lift and level the concrete. The Quality 1st Basement Foreman used PolyLevel Injections, which is a foam that is injected by drilling penny-sized holes in the concrete to fill the voids underneath. This pool patio is no longer a dangerous tripping hazard.

A resident in Manalapan, New Jersey saw their pool patio was settling. This occurs because of the shrinking of the soils underneath the concrete slab. Moisture in the soil causes it to expand and become more full. The homeowner called Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Jack Huber, helped them with a solution. He suggested they use polyurethane foam to be injected underneath the concrete in order to lift it. Our foreman, Victor Leon, used the PolyLevel Injection foam which is done by drilling small holes in the concrete slab. The foam is dispersed under the slab into the voids, causing the concrete to be lifted and leveled back to its original position.

A homeowner in Manalapan, New Jersey was experiencing water getting into their dirt crawl space. This can happen because of the exposed earth that brings in moisture into the crawl space air. Water can also enter the footing, between the footing, and even through block walls. After it seeps in, the water lies there in puddles while slowly evaporating into the house. This can cause many issues such as dust mites, insects, smelly damp carpets, increased heating and cooling bills, and even mold.

The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Dane Cuccinello, was able to provide an inspection of the home and come up with a plan to fix this issue. Dane suggested they encapsulate the home to keep the crawl space dry. Our foreman, Esau Aquino, installed the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System in the crawl space. This system prevents mold growth and is a 20 mil thick liner that seals the home from the earth. By installing this system, the crawl space is protected against water and moisture, while given a bright and fresh appearance.
