When addressing the issue of water intrusion in a home's basement, we recognize that there are numerous pathways for water to penetrate through the foundation walls and floors. Concrete foundations can be porous and vulnerable to shifting and cracking, which increases the likelihood of water seeping through. In one instance, a home in Middletown, NJ, was experiencing water intrusion due to a crack in the basement floor. Concerned about the potential impact on the home's structural integrity, the homeowner reached out to Quality 1st for a trustworthy solution.

In addition to installing our WaterGuard Drains, our team also implemented ThermalDry Sub Floor Matting in the basement. The drains, positioned beneath the floor, create a channel for water intrusion to redirect away from the foundation and into the sump pump. Our ThermalDry Flooring is fully waterproof and mold-resistant, featuring pegs on the underside of the tiles to establish a thermal break between the floor and the concrete. This installation enhances the basement's aesthetics while providing an effective waterproofing system that remains discreet.
