Quality 1st Basement Systems Before & After Photos

To access the cast-iron Zoeller pump for annual maintenance, Service Technician Jordan removed the airtight lid of the SuperSump Sump Pump System. He carefully removed the primary pump and the optional UltraSump Battery Backup pump. He cleaned and checked all components and replaced the check valves. Once reassembled, Jordan performed a system test to ensure the pumps were operating properly to provide a reliable wet basement solution!

This homeowner reached out regarding an unfinished basement that was getting water through both the floor and walls. We were able to install our WaterGuard, which is a non-clogging sub-floor drainage system that will keep the basement dry. The rugged plastic is designed to catch any seepage through walls or floor leaks along the perimeter, which will never rust or deteriorate over time. Once water is captured into the sub-floor drainage system, it will flow down to our SuperSump pump system, which will then pump out and away from the home. 

In Baltimore, MD, a homeowner was dealing with persistent water leaks. Water would seep in during heavy rains, threatening the integrity of their home and increasing the risk of structural issues. Our Quality 1st Basement Systems team addressed the problem efficiently. By installing our WaterGuard perimeter drainage system, SuperSump pump, and CleanSpace liner, we transformed their basement into a dry, usable space. 

In Baltimore, MD, a homeowner grew increasingly alarmed by visible signs of foundation settlement in their basement. Cracks had begun forming along the walls, and the floors were noticeably uneven, clear indicators of structural issues developing beneath the home. Concerned about the long-term stability and safety of their property, the homeowner reached out to Quality 1st for a professional evaluation and a lasting solution.

After conducting a detailed inspection, our team recommended the installation of the SmartJack Support System, an adjustable, high-strength steel pier system specifically engineered to stabilize and lift sagging floors. Our crew strategically placed the SmartJacks beneath the compromised support beams and adjusted them to raise the floors back to their proper position. The system not only corrected the existing issues but also reinforced the foundation to prevent further settlement.

With the SmartJacks in place, the homeowner gained peace of mind knowing their basement was now secure, level, and protected for the future!

These are pictures of a typical city row home basement entry. The stairwells often flood because the drain is not big enough or not connected properly for an outlet. The water can now be easily managed by installing proper drainage and a large TrenchDrain.
