Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Wet, Damp Basement in Bergen County Waterproofed

The chronic water in this Bergen county basement was a serious problem for the family. The basement was constantly damp, humid, and the walls were drab. The homeowners knew this lowered the value of his home, and was also unsafe. They wanted to stop hiding the basement and start using it for storage. First, it needed to stay dry. Quality 1st Basement Systems waterproofed this basement with an internal basement drain, a sump pump, waterproof flooring, and basement wall paneling. BrightWall basement wall covering is made with rigid plastic that will never grow mold or mildew. It prevents humidity and moisture from coming into the basement through the porous walls. In order to keep the humidity even lower, Quality 1st Basement Systems installed a SaniDry dehumidifier. The SaniDry dehumidifier removes moisture from the air and also helps filter air impurities. By lowering the humidity to a healthy level, mold will not grow. Waterproof flooring was installed piece by piece, in a tiled system. Now this basement looks much cleaner, the air is healthier, and water is pumped out of the home. The homeowners are now grateful to their waterproofing system.
