Quality 1st Basement Systems Before & After Photos

In this stone floor crawl space, the homeowners were noticing cold drafts coming in through the house and were in need of encapsulating it. Inside the crawl space, we placed our drainage matting under the CleanSpace liner that will transform the damp, dirty space into a clean, dry foundation. Then we installed CleanSpace Vapor Barrier all around the foundation walls and on the bottom of each pier, which will then create better conditioning air by resolving water issues.

A homeowner in Essex, MD, was concerned about persistent water seepage in their crawl space, which had become damp and unstable due to consistent rainfall. The moisture was not only causing the area to feel musty and uncomfortable but also threatening the structural integrity of the home. Seeking a long-term solution, the homeowner contacted Quality 1st, and our team quickly assessed the situation, creating a customized waterproofing and stabilization plan to address the specific issues.

Our dynamic solution included the installation of our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System to keep moisture at bay, along with our SmartJack System to provide structural support and lift sagging beams. The SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump was added to effectively remove water, while CleanSpace Vent Covers sealed out humid outdoor air and pests. To further control moisture, we installed the SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier, ensuring the air in the crawl space stayed dry and healthy. These systems worked together to eliminate future water intrusion and transform the crawl space into a dry, stable, and healthy environment that the homeowner can confidently rely on for years to come.

In Essex, MD, a homeowner was dealing with severe moisture intrusion in their basement, caused by an outdated sump pump that could no longer keep up with the volume of water entering the space. As conditions grew damper, the homeowner became increasingly concerned about potential rot, mold growth, and long-term structural damage. Wanting a permanent solution, they contacted Quality 1st for expert help in protecting their home from ongoing water issues.

After a detailed inspection, our team developed a customized waterproofing plan to address the root of the problem. We installed our patented TripleSafe Sump Pump, a three-pump system designed to provide powerful, layered protection, featuring a primary pump, a secondary for heavy water flow, and a battery backup to ensure continued operation during power outages. To further protect the system in cold weather, we added our IceGuard Discharge Line, which allows water to escape even if the discharge line freezes.

With these systems in place, we eliminated the risk of future water intrusion and successfully transformed the basement into a dry, healthy, and worry-free space.

After battling constant moisture and a lingering musty smell in their basement, this homeowner in Essex, MD decided it was time for a reliable solution to protect their home. They chose to waterproof their basement with CleanSpace, a heavy-duty vapor barrier designed to seal out dampness and prevent mold growth. Installed along the walls and floor, CleanSpace transformed the basement into a bright, clean, and dry space. With improved air quality and a solid defense against moisture, the homeowner now enjoys a healthier home environment and the confidence that their basement is fully protected year-round.

This customer had two hairline fractures in the concrete foundation, that when it would rain, would allow water to intrude in the basement. This customer wanted to finish their basement further down the road, but knew before he jumped on such a big costly project, the water intrusion would need to be taken care of. 

We came out and injected the hairline cracks with our Polyurethane Injection which is a repair system that can stop water seepage immediately. We follow up the Polyurethane injection with our FlexiSpan repair system. Flexispan, as it says in the name, is flexible and moves with the wall if the foundation walls happen to move.  This eliminates re-cracking and seepage further down the road.
