Quality 1st Basement Systems Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Somerset, NJ noticed a slab of concrete had sunk creating a tripping hazard around the edge of the pool, which made walking around the pool deck unsafe. They called Quality 1st Basements for help. Our System Design Specialist suggested Polylevel foam to be injected under the slab. Despite the foam's light weight, it's strong enough to lift fallen slabs back to their original position. The foam cures quickly and is waterproof, so the lifted concrete is safe from the pool water. The homeowner now has peace of mind that their pool deck is safe for their family and friends. 

In Paramus, NJ, a homeowner was dealing with a persistent crawl space issue. They noticed musty odors drifting through their home, accompanied by an uncomfortable sense of humidity. We proposed a thorough plan that involved three robust products: CleanSpace, SilverGlo, and the SaniDry Sedona. First, we fitted the CleanSpace encapsulation system, transforming the once damp crawl space into a clean, dry foundation. Next, SilverGlo Insulation was installed along the crawl space walls. Infused with graphite, SilverGlo not only enhanced the thermal efficiency but also served as a reliable vapor barrier, redirecting any incidental moisture to the home's drainage system. Finally, the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was put in place.

Moisture had begun to take hold in this Edison, NJ basement due to poor drainage around the foundation. The homeowner noticed signs of dampness and was increasingly aware of the risks, such as mold growth, wood rot, and poor air quality, that could result if the issue went unaddressed. Seeking a reliable, long-term solution, they reached out to Quality 1st for expert guidance and waterproofing services.

Following a detailed evaluation, our team designed a tailored waterproofing system to meet the home’s specific needs. We installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump to ensure consistent and dependable water removal, even during power outages or extreme weather. To combat vapor intrusion and brighten the basement environment, we added CleanSpace Wall Panels along the foundation walls. Lastly, we included our SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier, a powerful, energy-efficient system that maintains proper humidity levels and prevents mold-friendly conditions.

With these upgrades in place, the homeowner now enjoys a dry, healthy, and protected basement they can trust year-round!

Heavy rainstorms had started to take a toll on a Paterson, NJ home, where the homeowner noticed early signs of water damage appearing in the basement. Concerned about the potential for mold, structural deterioration, and further moisture intrusion, they reached out to Quality 1st for a professional, long-term solution. Our team conducted a thorough inspection and identified areas where water was seeping in, allowing us to design a customized waterproofing system tailored to the home’s specific needs.

To protect the basement from future water damage, we installed our patented WaterGuard Drainage System to capture and redirect water before it reached the living space. We paired this with our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, offering triple-layer protection to ensure continuous drainage, even during heavy storms or power outages. CleanSpace Wall Panels were added to create a moisture-resistant vapor barrier, helping to control humidity and brighten the space, while our IceGuard Discharge Line was installed to prevent backups caused by frozen exterior pipes.

With this powerful combination of systems, the basement was fully restored to a clean, dry, and healthy condition, giving the homeowner confidence in the safety and value of their home!

Recently, a homeowner in Chatham, NJ, homeowner grew increasingly concerned as visible wall cracks deepened and moisture levels rose in their basement. With fears of structural deterioration and the potential for harmful mold growth, they knew the issue required immediate and lasting attention. Turning to the trusted professionals at Quality 1st, they scheduled a thorough inspection. Our team identified signs of foundation stress and water intrusion and developed a customized plan to address both concerns at their source.

To fully restore the basement’s health and stability, we installed our patented WaterGuard Drainage System to intercept and channel groundwater away from the foundation. This was paired with our reliable TripleSafe Sump Pump, designed to handle high volumes of water and keep the basement dry even during power outages. To combat the structural concerns, we reinforced the compromised walls with our CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System, a high-strength carbon fiber solution that stabilizes bowing or cracked walls without invasive construction.
