Before & After Photos

In Long Island City, NY, a homeowner faced a common yet disruptive problem: a damp basement. This issue threatened not only the utility of their space but also posed risks of long-term damage. Based on our assessment, we proposed a tailored solution that included the installation of our WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system paired with the robust TripleSafe sump pump. The WaterGuard system, discreetly installed below the basement floor's surface, channels water seepage away before it can accumulate. It effectively captures wall and floor seepage and directs it to the TripleSafe system for removal. TripleSafe provides triple-layered security with three pumps working to ensure removal of the intruding water, even protecting against power outages with a backup battery-powered pump.

When water finds its way into a basement, it rarely arrives alone, structural problems often follow. That’s exactly what happened to this Nyack, NY homeowner, who began noticing that their basement support beams were weakening due to persistent moisture and poor drainage.

With concerns about potential structural decay and growing mold issues, they reached out to Quality 1st Basement Systems for a reliable, long-term solution. Our team conducted a comprehensive inspection and quickly identified the full extent of the moisture intrusion and foundation settlement, confirming that both waterproofing and structural repairs were necessary.

To fully address the problem, we designed a customized repair plan using a combination of our most trusted systems. Our patented WaterGuard Drainage System and TrenchDrain System were installed to capture unwanted water and channel it to the TripleSafe Sump Pump, which provides dependable protection against basement flooding. For structural reinforcement, we installed our SmartJack Support System to stabilize the compromised beams and restore proper support. To help prevent future mold growth and maintain a cleaner basement environment, we finished the space with our mold-resistant CleanSpace Wall Panels.

With these powerful upgrades in place, the homeowner now has a dry, stable, and protected basement built to withstand future challenges!

In Palisades, NY, a homeowner found themselves dealing with a common yet frustrating issue: sunken concrete. Over time, the once-even concrete surrounding their pool had started to sink, creating an uneven surface and a potential hazard for family and friends enjoying the outdoor space. We recommended and later installed our effective PolyLevel system, which is known for its ability to stabilize, lift, and level concrete slabs efficiently. Our production team arrived at the residence and, guided by the expertise we've honed over time, drilled small, pea-sized holes into the affected slabs. Through these precise openings, we injected high-strength polyurethane foam, which expanded underneath the concrete. The transformation was notably effective as the foam's expansion gently coaxed the sunken concrete back to its original position.

This Woodside, NY home was undergoing some sagging floor issues, due to the basement columns lacking the support needed to secure the floor above. Our team recommended the SmartJack Support System as the best solution. SmartJacks provide additional support to the basement floor beams and joists. This can prevent future movement in the future, protecting the floor and the structure of the home. 

This homeowner in Woodside, NY noticed their crawl space was damp and humid, so they contacted us for a solution. If this goes without repair, it could cause issues such as rotting wood, increased energy bills, and mold growth. We sent our System Design Specialist Carlos, to provide an inspection and he suggested installing an encapsulation system. Our foreman Luis, installed our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System, which will block out moisture and humidity from passing through the crawl space. Since the installation, the homeowner's peace of mind has been restored!
