Quality 1st Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Heavy water was seeping into one side of this basement in East Hanover, NJ. The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems to determine what was wrong since they had an existing basement that was several years old. Frank, our System Design Specialist, performed a full inspection and right away knew their sump pump system could no longer handle the heavy amount of groundwater seepage. Since the system had not been maintained in quite some time, it could no longer function properly to protect this home. 

Frank recommended an entire perimeter waterproofing system to restore this family's peace of mind. They also needed a reliable Sump Pump to keep their basement dry and healthy in any weather.  

Recently, a homeowner in East Hanover, NJ, observed concrete settlement around their homes garage, which was resulting in concerns about unsafe walking conditions and a overall decline in the visual appeal of the area. Luckily, our team of concrete repair professionals at Quality 1st were fully prepared to provide this homeowner with a comprehensive solution. 

The team began installing our specially formulated PolyLevel Foam Injections directly beneath the sunken portions of concrete, once administered PolyLevel actively expands and lifts the settled slabs to their designated surface level. PolyLevel also increases the load bearing capabilities of the concrete, by filling in any potential voids left from poorly displaced fill soil. 

Thanks to PolyLevel, this garage was completely restored to a smooth and leveled condition, delivering this homeowner with total peace of mind in the process!

This homeowner reached out to our team concerned about the moisture issues in their dirt crawl space. This is a common issue with homes built by the Jersey Shore. Our team meticulously installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier system in the crawl space to seal and encapsulate it properly.

In Margate City, NJ, a homeowner struggled with a damp crawl space, creating issues like mold growth and musty odors. In the before photo, you can see the extent of moisture invasion.

A homeowner in Margate City, NJ began noticing increased humidity and a persistent musty smell throughout their home, both signs pointing to underlying crawl space moisture issues. Concerned about the potential for mold, wood rot, and rising energy bills, they turned to the trusted professionals at Quality 1st for help. Our team conducted a detailed inspection and quickly identified excessive ground moisture and poor insulation as the main culprits.

To resolve the problem, we installed a comprehensive crawl space encapsulation system. SilverGlo Insulation Panels were added to the walls to enhance thermal efficiency and resist moisture, while our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier sealed off the crawl space from the damp earth below. To further protect against water intrusion, we installed our SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump to actively collect and discharge any groundwater.

This custom solution restored the crawl space to a dry, healthy state, protecting the home from further moisture damage and improving overall air quality and comfort.
