Quality 1st Basement Systems Before & After Photos

In Highland Park, NJ, a homeowner started observing cracking and bowing conditions along their basement walls, a clear indication of foundation settlement that was resulting in persistent water seepage. To avoid further structural deterioration and potential mold-growth, the homeowner contacted Quality 1st for a permanent repair solution. 

Upon arrival, our team closely inspected the basement walls and were able to evaluate the most effective repair approach, our patented CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System. The team began installing CarbonArmor along the bowing basement walls by using a specially formulated epoxy, ultimately strengthening and fully stabilizing the walls to their original position. 

With CarbonArmor successfully in place, the homeowner noticed an almost immediate improvement in the structural integrity of the basement, providing them with a completely renewed sense of pride in their home!

We recently assisted this Bronx, NY, homeowner who was struggling with ongoing water seepage in their basement, which was the clear result of heavy rainfall. The homeowner started to worry that this issue could eventually lead to structural deterioration and mold-growth, prompting them to contact Quality 1st for a long-term waterproofing resolution. 

Once our team conducted a thorough evaluation on the basement, they were able to determine the most effective solution, our TripleSafe Sump Pump System. The crew securely installed TripleSafe, a system specially designed with three pumps and a backup battery system. Our TripleSafe pumps are built for reliability, providing continuous protection and preventing flooding, water damage, and costly repairs.

Water was intruding on this homeowner's basement in Rising Sun, MD. The water was coming in where the floor met the wall. Our System Design Specialist, Jeff Yentzer, did a full inspection and recommended a solution that would work. The Quality 1st team started by installing WaterGuard under the floor slab since that is where the homeowner was experiencing the water intrusion. This would drain the water coming in from the walls and direct it towards the sump pump. The walls were then covered in our durable and mold-resistant CleanSpace walling to provide a barrier so moisture wouldn't filter into the air. The result is a clean, dry and protected basement.

In Little Egg Harbor Twp, NJ, a homeowner became increasingly worried after spotting signs of concrete settlement in their garage. The uneven slabs and shifting surfaces not only impacted the usability of the space but also raised concerns about potential structural damage and growing safety risks. Wanting to address the problem before it worsened, the homeowner contacted Quality 1st for a dependable and long-term solution.

Our team conducted a detailed inspection and identified unstable soil beneath the concrete as the root cause of the settlement. To effectively lift and stabilize the sunken slabs, we implemented our ultra-strength PolyLevel Foam Injections. This advanced system involved injecting high-density foam beneath the garage floor, where it expanded to fill voids and raise the concrete back to its original level. The process was clean, efficient, and provided immediate results.

Following the installation, the homeowner noticed a significant improvement in both the appearance and structural integrity of their garage, giving them complete peace of mind and confidence in the safety of their home!

After experiencing ongoing heavy rainfall, a homeowner in Wall Township, NJ, noticed a significant rise in crawl space moisture and began to worry about the long-term impact on their home’s structure and air quality. Concerned about potential mold, wood rot, and energy loss, they reached out to Quality 1st for a lasting solution.

Our team conducted a detailed inspection and identified several areas where water intrusion and humidity were compromising the crawl space. Based on these findings, we designed a customized waterproofing and moisture control plan tailored specifically to the home’s conditions.

To resolve the issue, our crew installed a full suite of industry-leading products, Drainage Matting to direct water flow, our SmartPipe Drainage System to capture groundwater, and the SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump for reliable water removal. We also installed SilverGlo Insulation Panels to improve thermal efficiency and reduce moisture absorption along the crawl space walls. To seal the area, we applied our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System, creating a protective layer across floors and walls, and finished the project with the IceGuard Discharge Line to prevent freeze-related blockages.

Together, these systems transformed the once-damp crawl space into a dry, energy-efficient, and structurally sound area, providing the homeowner with long-term protection and peace of mind!
