Get Professional Basement Waterproofing, Foundation Repair, and Crawl Space Services in Rahway

A homeowner in Rahway was living in her home for 15 years when her basement experienced flooding.  Unsure of where the water was coming from, she searched for a waterproofing company to help her.  Quality 1^st Basement Systems offered a no-obligation free inspection and estimate by a waterproofing specialist, so she scheduled an appointment.

After completion of a thorough interior and exterior inspection of the basement to determine the best solution to the water problems this homeowner was experiencing, the Quality 1^st Basement Systems’ waterproofing specialist came up with an ideal plan, carefully explained his findings and waterproofing plans to her, and provided a free estimate for the waterproofing products and work.  She needed assurance that her basement would get flooded again.

A crew (headed by Project Manager Juan Garcia) mobilized to Rahway, NJ to fix this homeowner’s basement.  They installed a full-perimeter WaterGuard (to channel and direct any water seepage); a TripleSafe Sump Pump System (to efficiently and reliably remove water from the basement area as well as provide back-up pumps in case of pump or power failure); and an IceGuard (designed to prevent flooding in the event of frozen discharge pipes).  Lastly, the crew installed a LawnScape discharge outlet to direct the water pumped out of the basement to be dispersed on the lawn away from the house.  Quality 1st Basement Systems helped to create a drier basement for the homeowner, and to top things off, Quality 1^st honored a senior citizen discount for the work!  

Homeowner Jason K. from Rahway, NJ was experiencing a damp and moldy basement during the summer months.  Referred by both his mother and grandmother who were very happy with the waterproofing work done by Quality 1^st Basement Systems in their homes, he reached out to find out more about the powerful, energy-efficient dehumidifiers and sump pumps.  Waterproofing specialist Mike Bonfante visited the homeowner, completed a thorough inspection of the basement area, answered Jason’s questions, and offered the best options for solving his basement problem along with a free estimate.

Mike proposed installation of the ultra-efficient SaniDry dehumidifier to remove moisture from the air and blow out a dry air into the space. This system was designed to keep the humidity levels below 50%, reducing the chance for mold to grow.  Additionally, a TripleSafe sump pump was proposed for installation as it includes an efficient primary pump, a back-up pump (in case the first one fails or if there is a need for extra pumping power), and a third battery-operated pump (designed to kick in if the power goes out). IceGuards would be installed on the discharge drains, too, to prevent a flood in the event that the lines freeze during the colder months. 

Jason K. decided that putting an end to the damp and moldy basement the Quality 1^st way was just the solution he wanted!

Tom J. had a sump pump and French drains in the basement of his 50-year old home in Rahway, NJ.  He found, however, that water was still finding its way in, seeping through the floor.  The partially-finished basement was getting damaged.  Tom was wondering what he could do to resolve this situation when he came upon Quality 1^st Basement Systems’ booth at a local home show.  He scheduled an appointment for a free-estimate inspection. 

One of the basement waterproofing specialists visited Tom to ensure him that Quality 1^st Basement Systems could help with this problem.  The installation of a waterproofing system included WaterGuard, a TripleSafe sump pump, IceGuards, and a LawnScape outlet (to disperse discharge water on the lawn).  This system was designed for water in the WaterGuard to be directed to the TripleSafe, pumped out of the basement, and is also prevented from causing a flood in winter months (if the discharge lines freezes) by inclusion of IceGuards.  The TripleSafe sump pump is a quiet, reliable pump with a back-up pump ready to take over in case the first pump fails or to assist the first pump if that alone is not enough.  A battery back-up pump makes up the third component, all set to automatically take over in the event of pump or power failure.  When the first two pumps operate together, up to 6200 gallons of water per hour can be removed!

Quality 1^st Basement Systems was glad to install an efficient system that would prevent seepage from ruining Tom’s basement space by directing it out of the home.  With the powerful and efficient triple systems, Tom no longer has to worry about water in the basement!
