Quality 1st Basement Systems Before & After Photos

This home had builder-grade fiberglass insulation on the basement walls. Fiberglass is organic and, therefore, not a good product to place against damp walls. The moisture content in the insulation will cause mold and drastically lower the R values, making it almost useless. We removed the bad insulation and installed FoaMax insulation boards. FoamMax will properly insulate this basement and also act as a vapor barrier. In addition to being a much better way to insulate foundation walls, they also look great and brighten up the whole basement.

This customer had an old out dated basement that they recently gutted and now wanted to remodel. They reached out to our company in need of help of bringing their visions of a usable, multipurpose room, to life. We sent our finishing specialist out to this property to provide material samples and work with the homeowners to come up with an open basement concept, they both agree on. 

For this project, we did a complete ceiling install, we put up our TBF EverLast Wall system around the perimeter of this basement, as well as painted the wall system, and finally, we installed our Elite Plank- Walnut flooring all throughout. 

At this property in Coatesville, MD the foundation had existing windows that needed replacement and with an enclosure installation. We dug out the area around the block foundation in order for us to install our EverLast vinyl window with our SunHouse Window Enclosure. Once the window and SunHouse were installed, we backfilled the outside area to fully enclose the area. 

This Coatesville, PA, homeowner noticed that during heavy rainfall, water was seeping through their basement window, creating damp and dreary conditions that threatened the integrity of the space. Concerned about the growing problem, the homeowner reached out to Quality 1st for a permanent solution.

After a thorough inspection was conducted, our team developed a customized waterproofing plan that included the installation of our patented WaterGuard Drainage System to redirect water away from the foundation, and TrenchDrain to manage water at entry points. We also installed CleanSpace Wall Panels to act as a moisture barrier and improve air quality, along with our EverLast Window, which provides a waterproof, energy-efficient solution. To prevent future freeze-ups, we added our IceGuard Discharge Line, ensuring the sump pump discharge pipe remains clear.

Together, these systems effectively eliminated water intrusion, transforming the basement into a dry, healthy space and providing the homeowner with a renewed sense of pride in their home!

A homeowner in Coatesville, PA contacted Quality 1st after noticing rising moisture levels in their basement, which sparked concerns about mold growth and potential structural damage.

Understanding the importance of addressing these issues quickly, our team responded promptly and recommended the installation of our SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. This powerful, energy-efficient system is designed to remove excess humidity from the air while filtering out mold spores and allergens, making it ideal for damp basement environments.

Once installed, the SaniDry Sedona immediately began improving air quality and reducing moisture, effectively transforming the basement into a dry, healthy, and protected space the homeowner can now trust for years to come!
