Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Basement Prepared for Snow and Rain in North Bergen, NJ

After the snow melted, this North Bergen, NJ homeowner noticed water coming in through where the basement wall met the floor. She panicked and knew that she needed to fix the problem to keep her basement safe for the rest of the winter. She gave Quality 1st Basement Systems a call to waterproof her basement and keep it up to date for all weather. The best way to keep this basement waterproof was to install an internal basement drain and a sump pump. The WaterGuard basement drain differs from other drains in the industry because it is installed inside of the home, along the perimeter of the basement wall. By installing it inside, the drain will not clog with debris and mud, allowing water to continuously flow through to the sump pump. After installation, the WaterGuard basement drain was covered up with concrete. Then, Quality 1st Basement Systems installed a SuperSump sump pump. This sump pump will keep water moving away from the house, so even when snow melts it will stay dry and safe. Now the semi-finished North Bergen basement is safe and water no longer gets in. The family is prepared for all weather now, rain or snow!
