Quality 1st Basement Systems Before & After Photos

These photos show before and after annual maintenance on a SuperSump system in New Milford, NJ.  Our technician, Nelson inspected the pump, cleaned the basin and ensured the system was ready to continue protecting the basement from groundwater.

Recently in Mendham, NJ, a homeowner started observing ongoing water seepage in their basement during periods of heavy rainfall, which resulted in concerns about potential rot and mold-growth. After researching local basement waterproofing companies, the homeowner decided that Quality 1st was the most qualified to tackle the issue.

Once our team arrived at the home and finished conducting a thorough inspection in the basement, they determined which waterproofing approach would effectively protect and eliminate any further moisture-related issues. The team installed our specially patented TripleSafe Sump Pump System, this powerful system features a primary pump for everyday use, a backup pump to ensure reliability during high water flow, and a third, battery-powered pump that kicks in during power outages. In order to seal off the basement and ensure that it was fully safeguarded against future moisture intrusion, the team also installed our mold-resistant CleanSpace Vapor Barrier Wall Panels. 

With these high-performance systems in place, water seepage doesn't stand a chance, allowing this homeowner to enjoy a renewed sense of pride in their home!

If you notice cracking or bowing walls in your home, these may indicate foundation settlement, which can deteriorate over time. A homeowner in Pilesgrove, NJ, took action to address foundation settlement concerns after noticing these issues in their basement. We installed our heavy-duty PowerBrace Wall Repair System, which successfully stabilized the wall and enhanced the structural integrity of the entire space. As a result, the homeowner can now have peace of mind regarding the stability of their foundation.

A homeowner in Montclair, NJ was experiencing a musty odor originating from their crawl space and permeating their home. Acknowledging this issue, the homeowner sought a waterproofing solution to prevent moisture build-up that was contributing to the unpleasant smell. Our Quality 1st team provided an effective solution and was eager to assist.

The crawl space was encapsulated with our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, which lined both the floor and walls. Beneath the vapor barrier, our Drainage Matting was installed to promote water flow and prevent water from becoming trapped on the floor. CleanSpace is highly durable and is backed by a guarantee against mold or mildew growth. This system is designed to keep the crawl space dry and to mitigate further concerns regarding unpleasant odors or structural damage.

When a homeowner in Wildwood, NJ, noticed the uncomfortably high humidity levels in their crawl space were wreaking havoc not just there but in their whole house, they decided it was time for a change. We prescribed a combination of our CleanSpace vapor barrier system to encapsulate the crawl space, preventing moisture from invading the area. Next, SilverGlo panels were installed on the walls to insulate the space and reflect heat back into the crawl space, making it more energy-efficient. Finally, to actively control the humidity, we set up a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier – a powerful, yet energy-efficient system designed specifically for areas like this.
