The basement had bowing walls, staircase cracks and horizontal cracks that alarmed the homeowner to give Quality 1st Basement Systems a call.
GeoLock Wall Anchor System
Quality 1st Installed GeoLock Wall Anchors to the walls that were bowing to far inward for CarbonAmor to hold. When the soil on the outside of the home is secure enough to hold weight, Quality 1st will install the wall anchors to help support and stabilize each wall.
Water Marks and Moisture
The basement had received water from time to time and the homeowner worried that there may be mold but was more focused on the foundation problems. Kenny explained that even though the foundation problems were obviously a big concern, the water issues needed to be addressed as well. If ignored, water will continue to find its way in through the walls creating moisture and a damp, cold environment.
Sump Pump System Installed
TripleSafe Sump Pump was installed with a back up battery system in case of a power outage. If the power were to go out, the back up battery will turn on and continue to pump out water to prevent a basement flood.
IceGuard
IceGuard is installed tot eh discharge pipe as an alternative exit for water if the pipe were to freeze. This will prevent back flow into the basement.
Water pumped out of the Basement
The sump pump system, pumps the water out of the basement and at least 15 feet away from the foundation.
