Photo Album: Waterproofing a Basement in Staten Island

The leaky, smelling basement in this Staten Island house had the homeowner worried. Could that black stuff be mold? They asked friends and neighbors to recommend a good waterproofing company and everyone said, “Call Quality 1st Basement Systems!” Basement Waterproofing Design Specialist, Jeff Nero, inspected this Staten Island home and explained to the homeowner how the water was getting into the basement and what could be done to waterproof it. Jeff recommended the WaterGuard Drainage System to collect the water and direct it to the TripleSafe Sump Pump. TripleSafe is three sump pumps in one with a battery back-up. A TrenchDrain installed by the back door to ensure any moisture that comes in from the basement stairs is directed to the TripleSafe Sump Pump. Jeff also recommended the CleanSpace Wall System. CleanSpace is a waterproof vapor barrier that’s durable, washable, and has anti-microbial protection built right in. A prefect way to protect against humidity while giving the basement a fresh, clean look. Outside the home an IceGuard discharge line would keep the system functioning even on the coldest days. The specially engineered IceGuard System will allow discharged water to escape if the drain freezes (or clogs for any reason). Every home in the frigid northeast should have one! A LawnScape outlet would complete the system, giving an attractive, yet functional end to the discharge line. Foreman Victor Leon, a Quality 1st Installation Specialist, brought the crew out to Staten Island and they got right to work installing the complete waterproofing system. Now this Staten Island basement is dry and clean and the homeowner is very happy to recommend Quality 1st Basement Systems to everyone.
