Photo Album: Basement Waterproofing Solution in Hasbrouck Heights, NJ

Quality 1st Basement Systems completed a waterproofing project in Hasbrouck Heights, NJ, for a homeowner experiencing water intrusion through the walls of an unfinished basement, especially during heavy rainfall. Our team installed WaterGuard around the basement perimeter to collect groundwater and direct it toward a new TripleSafe sump pump system. TripleSafe provides three levels of pumping protection, including a primary pump, a secondary pump, and a battery-powered backup pump. Together, these systems provide a comprehensive approach to collecting and removing groundwater and helping keep the basement drier.

WaterGuard Installation

Laying the groundwork for long-term basement protection with a meticulously placed WaterGuard system.

WaterGuard

Our interior drainage system is complete and ready to handle any water intrusion. This hidden solution ensures basements stay dry and protected during heavy rain or melting snow.

Trench Line

We remove a section of concrete to install WaterGuard right where water enters at the base of the walls.

Drainage System

To help address the issue, our team installed WaterGuard around the basement perimeter. This interior drainage system is designed to collect groundwater entering near the floor and foundation wall joint and channel it toward the sump basin for removal.

Sump Pump

We also installed a TripleSafe sump pump system to provide multiple levels of pumping protection. TripleSafe features a primary pump for everyday water removal, a secondary pump to provide additional pumping capacity, and a battery-powered backup pump for added protection during power outages.

Waterproofing

WaterGuard is now fully installed, creating a permanent interior drainage system that protects the basement from groundwater. By capturing water at the source, it directs everything safely to the sump pump before it reaches the floor.
