Professional Basement Waterproofing and Foundation Repairs in Carteret, NJ

A homeowner in Carteret, NJ noticed water seepage in their basement. A damp basement can cause issues such as rotting wood, increased energy bills, and even mold growth! They knew this needed to be repaired, so they contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems. 

We sent our System Design Specialist to provide an inspection and they suggested waterproofing the basement.

Our foreman and crew installed our Super Sump Pump System and WaterGuard French Drain System. Super Sump will provide a level of protection against water intrusion, and WaterGuard will catch any water that seeps in from the walls and floors.

When the job was complete, the homeowner was satisfied with the results, and their peace of mind was restored! 

Don't let sinking concrete and tripping hazards ruin your pool parties! This homeowner in Carteret, New Jersey noticed their concrete was sinking and settling. This can happen when concrete is poured over poorly backfilled soil, or from the soil getting saturated and then becoming dry. Over time, this soil settles and creates voids underneath the concrete, causing it to become unlevel. If this goes without repair, someone could injure themselves due to the tripping hazard! 

The homeowner did not want this issue to go without a solution, so they searched online and came across Quality 1st Basement Systems. They gave us a call and our customer care representative booked them an appointment with our System Design Specialist, Joseph DelVecchio. Joseph provided a thorough inspection and suggested they use polyurethane foam to lift and level the concrete. 

A few days later, our foreman Juan arrived at the home and began the process of using our PolyLevel Injections. This is done by drilling small, penny-sized holes into the concrete and injecting the foam into the voids underneath. This process is repeated until the slab is raised and leveled. PolyLevel is lightweight and environmentally friendly. Our crew did a final clean up and within 20 minutes, the job was completed.

When the homeowner saw the results, they were extremely satisfied with the job, as well as the professionalism they witnessed. Now, they can safely walk on their concrete without the concern of tripping hazards!

Basement waterproofing specialist Ken Peare visited Fran in Carteret, ready to tackle the problem she was having with water in the basement.  After a thorough inspection and discussion with Fran, Ken proposed a solution that would alleviate Fran’s problems.  He suggested the installation of a SuperSump Sump Pump, an UltraSump Battery Backup System, a WaterGuard System, and an IceGuard Discharge Line System.
