Challenge

A Hightstown homeowner wanted to repair his flooded basement to create a useful space but was afraid his belongings would be ruined. His old sump pump had failed and caused flooding, which in turn had ruined the lower portion of some walls and some personal items in the past. He was unsure how he could finish his basement without worry about future flooding and damage.

Solution

Quality 1st Basement Systems was able to solve this homeowner’s problem. The Quality 1st Basement Systems installation team replaced his malfunctioning sump pump with aTripleSafe sump pump system to prevent future water damage to the basement. TripleSafe has a back-up battery to ensure that it will continue protecting this basement, even during power outages. The Quality 1st Basement Systems crew also installed a full perimeter WaterGuard system to drain water away from the home’s foundation, in addition to an IceGuardwhich will keep pipes from freezing during the cold winter months.

The Quality 1st Basement Systems crew installed EverLast Wall Panels to repair the walls that had been damaged by water. EverLastpanels are made of vinyl, which makes them durable as well as waterproof, and create a cleaner, brighter look for any basement. EverLastpanels also prevent mold growth. The basement project was finished with a SaniDryBasement Dehumidfier to filter and dehumidify the air to ensure comfort and safety. This homeowner was thrilled with the finished look of his basement and now has a functional space to use!
