Warm Basement Flooring in East Elmhurst, Queens NY

Cheryl W. always had water coming into her East Elmhurst finished basemnet, but she thought nothing of it. Her basement floor was always cold and damp, and the space was uncomfortable. Her family was concerned and recommended she call Quality 1st Basement Systems for a free estimate on basement waterproofing. Basement specialist Kenny Tramutola came out to Cheryl's home and found signs of water damage on the basement floor. He suggested an internal basement drain, a sump pump, and waterproof basement flooring to keep the room dry and safe.

Quality 1st Basement Systems installed a WaterGuard basement drain. The WaterGuard is an internal drainage system that will not clog with outdoor mud, dirt, tree roots and other debris. After installation, it is covered with a layer of concrete to hide it from view. Cheryl loved the WaterGuard because it was invisible after installation.

The UltraSump sump pump is quiet but has a heavy duty motor and an airtight seal to keep out odors.

Basement Crack Fixed in Cambria Heights, Queens

A homeowner in Cambria Heights, Queens, NY had a crack about a half inch wide running diagonally across the basement wall.

4 Inch Sunken Slab Creates Tripping Hazard in Jackson Heights, NY

Sam, living in Jackson Heights, NY contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems after one of her small children tripped on their concrete patio in their backyard. Horrified that this type of accident could happen again, she wanted to get an expert over right away to solve the problem. Jeff Nero, a System Design Specialist from Quality 1st, drove out to Jackson heights , measure the sinking slab, and determined whether or not the team could raise it. Jeff measured the slab at about 4 inches of settlement which can be a big trip hazard for small children. Luckily, there was no tree roots causing the surrounded slabs to raise, therefore Polylevel Injection Foam would do just the trick.

 PolyLevel Foreman, Arturo Jacuinde and his crew, drilled small penny size holes in the concrete slab. Next, they injected the PolyLevel foam underneath the slab which expands and hardens raising the slab back to desired level. PolyLevel is more cost efficient and causes no disturbance to the environment around it since anyone can walk on the slab within 15 minutes after job completion. Instead of removing and replacing the entire patio area, PolyLevel quickly and safely lifts the slab back to level.

Sam was amazed at how fast and easy the entire processes was and was thankful the tripping hazard was removed. She appreciated how well the crew cleaned up after they were finished and was happy her children were  able to play in her backyard again. Sam became a satisfied customer and now tells all her friends about Quality 1st Basement Systems.
