Photo Album: Unfinished Basement Waterproofed in New York, NY
Water was coming into this New York, NY unfinished basement when it rained. It was clear on the walls that there was some damage from moisture. Quality 1st Basement Systems waterproofed this basement with several solutions.
Quality 1st Basement Systems installed an internal basement drain. The patented WaterGuard basement drain collects and drains water to a sump pump. It is different from other French drain systems because it is installed inside of the basement on top of the footing, which keeps it from clogging up with mud. On the walls, the team installed a tough, waterproof vapor barrier. Some basements are waterproofed with paint, however that paint often chips and flakes off. CleanSpace vapor barrier will never chip off of the wall and it will never rip or tear. The vapor barrier also covers up the unfinished basement wall, making it look better and brighter. Finally, Quality 1st Basement Systems installed a TripleSafe sump pump in the basement. This powerful sump pump will keep the basement safe and dry.
