Recently, a homeowner in Warrington, PA was struggling with persistent water seepage in their basement, a problem caused by an outdated sump pump that could no longer keep up with rising moisture levels. The continual dampness not only created an uncomfortable living space but also raised serious concerns about the potential for mold growth and long-term structural damage to the home. Recognizing the urgency of the situation, the homeowner reached out to Quality 1st for a professional evaluation and effective solution.
After a thorough inspection, our team recommended installing our patented TripleSafe Sump Pump System, designed to provide three layers of pumping protection. This innovative system includes a primary pump for everyday drainage, a secondary pump to handle heavier water volumes, and a battery-powered backup pump to ensure operation during power outages. Once installed, the TripleSafe system quickly restored the basement to a dry, healthy condition, delivering reliable, year-round protection and giving the homeowner complete peace of mind!
A resident in West Deptford, New Jersey was experiencing sinking and settling in their concrete patio. This can happen because concrete is often poured over recently backfilled soil around a home after construction. Over time, this loose soil settles and creates a void underneath the concrete. Unlevel concrete has many negative effects because it can be a serious tripping hazard. The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Javier Hoyos Romero was able to help them with a solution. He suggested a polyurethane foam to level the concrete. Our foreman, Luis Aguirre, used the PolyLevel Injection System underneath the slab by drilling tiny holes into the concrete. The polyurethane foam was injected into the holes. The expanding properties of the polyurethane allow for accurate lifting and leveling of the slab. Now, there are no dangerous tripping hazards outside of the home.
This West Deptford, NJ homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems after noticing their concrete steps had sunk about two inches. We had our System Design Specialist, Chris Bowe, inspect the area and provide a quote for the homeowner. Afterward, Chris suggested our Polylevel Injection would be the perfect repair method for the homeowner. Polylevel is a better solution than mudjacking because it's durable and long-lasting. It is also waterproof, environmentally friendly, and has a quick recovery time of fifteen minutes. After the crew completed the repair, the homeowner was happy with the results.
In Mantua, NJ we used our PolyLevel Injections to raise this sinking concrete. PolyLevel will bring the concrete to a raised and level position, eliminating any tripping hazards.
Faced with a concerning water issue due to lack of a waterproofing system and inadequate sump pumps, this basement was far from functional. By installing our reliable WaterGuard system alongside a TripleSafe Sump Pump, the basement became a completely revitalized and dry space.
