Waterproofing Job in South Richmond Hill, NY

Wednesday, September 11th, 2024 by Amy Moore

Challenge

In the finished basement of this South Richmond Hill, NY home, the homeowner was observing water seeping inside when it rained. Water presence in a home's basement poses a threat to personal items and the home's structural integrity. To avoid the repercussions of this persistent issue, the homeowner searched for a repair that would relieve the basement of further water damage. They got in contact with our team at Quality 1st and we were able to send our System Design Specialist Carlos to the home to do a proper assessment. Once we determined what services we could provide for this home, our Foreman Javier and crew went out to perform an installation.

Solution

We upgraded this basement's waterproofing system by installing a new sump pump, our SuperSump. To ensure leaking water would find its way into this powerful sump pump, WaterGuard Drains were installed along the perimeter of the basement floor. A major entryway for water coming into the basement was through the foundation walls, so we put up our CleanSpace Walling. CleanSpace is a vapor barrier that completely blocks out water coming through the wall and is resistant to mold or mildew growth. These major upgrades to the waterproofing system in this basement are a promising solution to the problems the homeowner was facing. Now they have the peace of mind of knowing their basement is no longer at risk of water damage all thanks to our team!
