Sump Pump and Basement Waterproofing in Fresh Meadows, Queens NY

This homeowner purchased a new home in Forest Hills, Queens and had water in the basement. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed a WaterGuard drainage system in order to drain the water. The WaterGuard drainage system is guaranteed never to clog with its patented design. A new TripleSafe sump pump will now pump the water away from the basement with its three pump system. The TripleSafe sump pump has a battery backup which will turn on in case the power fails during a storm. CleanSpace liner was installed around the basement walls in order to keep water vapor out, and dry air in. CleanSpace keeps the relative humidity of basements low with its durable plastic lining that will never rip. Now this basement is ready for all weather and will stay dry and safe.

Nasty Crawl Space in Hollis, NY

Quality 1st Basements completely transformed this nasty and damp crawl space into a dry and healthy area underneath the home of Hollis, NY homeowner. Quality 1st encapsulated the crawl space to seal it off from the harmful outside environment. Since the homeowner's heater and pipes were located in the crawl space, the pipes would freeze and the heater would have to work extra hard to heat the home.

The crew installed SilverGlo, a heat barrier to reflect heat back into the crawl space. This will lower the cost of their heating bill and prevent their pipes from freezing! The CleanSpace liner was installed over the SilverGlo to the walls and floor to prevent water seepage and moisture in the future. The homeowner was amazed at the transformation and relieved that they no longer had to worry about water again!

Concrete Leveling at Grocery Store

A local grocery store had uneven concrete sidewalks which were presenting a problem for customers. The concrete had sunken more than 2" in some areas. Quality 1st Basement Systems injected PolyLEVEL into the sidewalks to raise the slabs back to their original levels. PolyLEVEL sets in under 15 seconds so business was not disturbed and the concrete has been repaired.

Backyard Patio Raised in Staten Island, NY

Homeowner living in Staten Island, NY had a problem with several sinking slabs in the backyard. Some of which settled so low, that their children could no longer ride their bikes or scooters on the patio. Quality 1st sent System Design Specialist, Jeff Nero, out to inspect the home and provide a permanent solution for the sinking concrete. 

Since the concrete was only about four years old, removing and replacing it would be a waste of money, Quality 1st Basement Systems pumped PolyLevel into each sinking slab, raising them back to their desired level. PolyLevel is cost effective; it is a quick installation with a clean after look.

The homeowner was pleased the with work done and was greatly that the installation only kept the children off their bikes for a short amount of time.
