Increased Moisture Levels In Westfield, NJ Basement
Challenge
After a homeowner in Westfield, NJ noticed persistent dampness in their basement despite efforts to manage it, they realized their aging sump pump was no longer up to the task. Concerned about ongoing moisture intrusion and the potential for long-term damage, they turned to Quality 1st for a professional and dependable waterproofing solution. Our team promptly conducted a thorough inspection to pinpoint all sources of water entry and evaluate the basement’s overall condition.
Solution
Based on our findings, we designed a tailored waterproofing plan to fully address the homeowner’s needs. Central to this approach was the installation of our patented WaterGuard Drainage System, which captures and channels water away from the foundation. We paired this with our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, featuring three high-capacity pumps that provide reliable water removal even during heavy storms or power outages. To prevent water from entering through basement windows, we added a Window WellDuct, directing water safely into the drainage system. For enhanced comfort and protection, SilverGlo Insulation Panels were installed to regulate basement temperature while resisting moisture, and CleanSpace Wall Panels were applied to create a durable, breathable barrier that helps prevent mold growth. Additionally, our IceGuard Discharge Line was incorporated to prevent freezing and maintain consistent drainage during cold weather. Together, these advanced systems transformed the basement into a dry, safe, and inviting space. The homeowner immediately noticed a significant reduction in moisture, with improved air quality and comfort throughout the year.
