Waterproof walls and floors Transform Wyckoff Basement

Wednesday, October 1st, 2014 by Cassandra Santiago

Challenge

A basement in Wyckoff had suffered from some flooding in the past, which had damaged the floors and walls. It was constantly damp and chilly, which made this space impossible to enjoy. It seemed like nothing would be able to fix this dark and dingy basement.

Solution

Quality 1st Basement Systems was able to provide the right solutions! The Quality 1st Basement Systems crew installed EverLast Wall Panels to replace the water-worn walls. EverLast helps to brighten and enhance the overall look of the basement. They are made with a vinyl finish, thus resistant to water-damage and mold. Everlast Wall Panels are part of the Basement to Beautiful system, which focuses on products that are modern and energy-efficient.

The Quality 1st Basement Systems team also installed ThermalDry Floor Matting, which is a system of modular floor tiles that snap together. These come in carpet or tile styles, and variety of colors. Each ThermalDry piece has raised pegs underneath that create space, which prevents cold air as well as water from seeping through. Thus, the use of this flooring will help keep tempered air in the basement and reduce utility bills. Now this homeowner has a warm, cozy space for her family to enjoy!
