Quality 1st Basement Systems Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Runnemede, NJ was experiencing concrete slab settlement of about 3 inches in their backyard patio. This was creating a large crack in the concrete patio, which is an entrance way for water to get under the concrete and cause serious ersion issues. Quality 1st Basements used PolyLevel solution to raise the settled concrete and applied NexusPro to seal the cracked concrete.  

A homeowner in Merchantville, New Jersey had water in their crawl space and contacted Quality 1st for a solution. Our System Design Specialist inspected the crawl space and recommended that the crawl space be sealed off so no more water, moisture or humidity would enter the crawl space. Drainage matting was first installed on the crawl space floors to give the water a channel underneath the crawl space liner. The matting has raised dimples so the water does not get trapped under the floor.

CleanSpace vapor barrier system was installed on the crawl space walls and floors in order to keep water vapor and humidity from passing through. CleanSpace is a durable bright white liner that will not rip or tear making it perfect for storage use. A sump pump was installed to make sure the water entering the basement gets pumped out. The TripleSafe sump pump has three levels of pumps built in to ensure the crawl space stays dry and healthy. This crawl space is free of water and ready for the homeowners to use for storage.       

Taking care of your sump pump is essential because it helps prolong the life of the system. Our Quality 1st Basement Systems service team provides annual maintenance for this homeowner in Pennsauken, New Jersey. Our team will thoroughly clean and test the system to ensure there are no errors. 

A homeowner from Pennsauken, NJ dealing with a damp, musty crawl space decided to take action after noticing moisture damage and increased humidity inside their home. To create a dry, healthy environment beneath the house, a full waterproofing system was installed using CleanSpace, SilverGlo, and Starpipe.

The CleanSpace liner was fitted along the floors and walls to seal out ground moisture and create a bright, clean barrier. SilverGlo insulation panels were added to improve energy efficiency and help regulate temperature, while the Starpipe drainage system efficiently directed any water toward a sump pump for removal. Together, these solutions transformed the crawl space from a damp, neglected area into a dry, protected part of the home, helping prevent mold, improve air quality, and add long-term value to the property.

The relentless problem of standing water and persistent dampness beneath their home was causing increasing anxiety for a homeowner in Pennsauken, NJ. Continuous moisture intrusion in the crawl space created a perfect environment for structural threats, including accelerated wood rot and the spread of mold, posing a risk to the integrity and air quality of the entire home. Recognizing that moisture issues only escalate over time, the homeowner made the decisive choice to call in the certified experts at Quality 1st for a permanent, professional solution.

Our approach began with an extensive inspection, which meticulously identified all points of water entry and allowed our team to craft a completely customized, multi-faceted waterproofing and encapsulation strategy tailored precisely to the structure's needs.

The comprehensive solution involved integrating several high-performance systems for ultimate protection. First, our patented StarPipe Drainage System was installed outside to manage groundwater before it reached the foundation. Inside, the cornerstone of the defense was our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System, a heavy-duty, reinforced liner that fully seals the floor and walls, isolating the home from the earth's moisture. To manage any water that enters the space, our SuperSump Premier Sump Pump was installed for reliable, continuous removal. Finally, the crawl space environment was optimized for health and efficiency, SilverGlo Insulation Panels were applied to the walls for superior thermal protection, and our SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier was added to filter the air and maintain low humidity levels, actively preventing mold growth.

These advanced systems successfully encapsulated the crawl space, ensuring the area remains completely dry, healthy, and fully protected against all future moisture-related issues!
