Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Protecting Scotch Plain Basement from Water and Mold

Building a basement the right way is important. Even a new, expensive basement can leak, have cold drafts, and be uncomfortable. However, this home in Scotch Plains, NJ was prepared. After the home was build, the builder wanted a basement waterproofing system that would keep the home dry, so he called Quality 1st Basement Systems. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed a basement drain, a sump pump, and waterproof wall panels in the basement. All of these products are specially designed for basements and use science to keep the area dry. The internal basement drain will never clog, and the redundant system of the TripleSafe sump pump will always pump out water. By having three pumps instead of one this basement is protected from leaking and floods. Water often comes into basements from the wall. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed BrightWall basement wall panels, which prevent moisture from coming into the home. BrightWall basement wall panels are made with inorganic materials, which means that they will not grow mold or mildew. Using inorganic materials in the basement is important, since it is a mold prone area. Mold needs moisture to grow, so by keeping the basement dry this home will be protected and healthy.
