Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Howard Beach, New York was experiencing water and moisture getting into their basement. This occurs because the poorly compacted soil around the foundation becomes saturated, creating hydrostatic pressure which causes water to be pushed through the walls. The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our foreman, Esau Aquino installed the CleanSpace Wall Vapor Barrier which will ensure that moisture does not get into the basement. Then, he installed the ThermalDry Basement Floor Matting which will protect the concrete floor from moisture below. ThermalDry matting is 100% waterproof, creating a vapor barrier on the floor. It also provides a thermal break that causes the surface of the floor to be warmer than the concrete floor. Now, the basement has a bright and fresh appearance, while keeping water and moisture out.

A homeowner in Jamaica, NY noticed water seeping into the basement through their window well. After noticing it was old and rusted, they decided to have it replaced. They searched the Internet for credible contractors and came across the Quality 1st Basement Systems website. After reviewing their work, the homeowner decided to hire them for the job. We replced the oild window well with our durable and long-lasting SunHouse Window Well. The accessory prevents water and drafts from flowing into the basement, while allowing natural sunlight to come in. Since the installation, the homeowner has not experienced any other issues, and they have been fully satisfied with the service of Quality 1st Basement Systems.
