A finished living space in a home's basement shouldn't be compromised by leaking water damaging its safety, health, and comfort. That was the case for this Philadelphia, PA home and the homeowner decided to call our team to offer a repair solution. Our crew decided to install a new drainage system featuring our WaterGuard Perimeter Drains. This installation provides the basement with a new drainage system that leaking water can flow through and make its way into the new sump pump. Our TripleSafe Sump Pump was installed to replace the basement's existing system, giving the home three new levels of protection due to the system's three-pump design. These two new installations guarantee that this basement will be rid of pooling water and the homeowner can now use and enjoy their dry, healthy living space.

Cracked Concrete Restoration In Philadelphia, PA

It's unfortunately quite common for concrete settlement to occur over extended periods of time. This is partially due to uncontrollable environmental factors such as moisture, exposure to sunlight, and poorly compressed fill soil. Concrete is generally quite porous in nature, meaning that overtime water can enter and begin to deteriorate the structure of these surfaces. Settlement also occurs as a result of continuous temperature changes, causing the pores in concrete slabs to expand and contract, creating the disheveled appearance we frequently recognize on most walkways. This Philadelphia, PA property owner decided it was time to resolve ongoing settlement issues located on their properties front entryway sidewalk. The owner observed significant signs of surface decay, with uneven slabs and dangerous tripping hazards arising, they knew a permanent solution was crucial. We swiftly sent out our system design specialist Jeff to survey the property, and to ultimately provide a comprehensive repair approach. Following this evaluation our foreman JD and his crew began drilling small penny-sized holes in specific areas of the sidewalk, this allowed the crew to begin administering our powerfully stabilizing PolyLevel Foam Injections beneath the sunken slabs, fully restoring them to their initial surface height. This process entirely strengthened the once weakened concrete walkway, as well as, supplying the owner with an increased sense of pride in the structural longevity of their property!

Basement Waterproofing in Philadelphia, PA

At Quality 1st, we recently tackled a challenging basement waterproofing job in a historic Philadelphia neighborhood. The owner, facing with persistent waterproofing issues in a commercial basement, reached out to us after noticing water infiltration despite having some parts of the problem addressed by other service providers. The persisting concerns centered around leakages at the Bilco doors and a failing sump pump, vital barriers to moisture intrusion in basements. Upon receiving the call, we immediately arranged for our System Design Specialist to visit the property for a comprehensive evaluation. We understand that each property comes with its unique set of challenges, especially in a city as rich in history as Philadelphia. Our specialist identified the major points of water entry and recommended a dual-action course of treatment: sealing the Bilco doors to prevent further water ingress and updating the sump pump system to efficiently remove any water. Our solution included installing SuperSump, a high-end sump pump known for its reliability and efficiency in handling significant volumes of water, and WaterGuard, an innovative interior drainage system designed to intercept water at the perimeter of the basement before it causes damage.
