Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A homeowner in New Castle, DE was struggling with persistent basement water seepage due to an outdated sump pump that could no longer handle the heavy moisture entering the space. Concerned about the ongoing damage and potential health risks, they contacted Quality 1st for a permanent solution.

Our team responded with a dynamic waterproofing system tailored to their needs, including our patented WaterGuard Drainage System to redirect intruding water, TrenchDrain to stop surface water at entry points, our TripleSafe Sump Pump for reliable, triple-layered protection, and our SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier to control humidity and improve air quality.

In New Castle, DE, a homeowner was facing persistent basement water intrusion that made the space damp, uncomfortable, and increasingly at risk for structural issues and mold growth. Concerned about the long-term impact on their home, they contacted Quality 1st for a reliable solution.

Our team performed a thorough inspection and identified key areas where moisture was entering and accumulating. Based on the home’s specific needs, we designed a customized waterproofing system to address the root causes of the problem and provide lasting protection.

To solve the issue, we installed our patented WaterGuard Drainage System along the perimeter of the basement to capture seepage at the foundation level before it could cause further damage. CleanSpace Wall Panels were added to serve as a vapor barrier, directing moisture down into the drainage system. To efficiently remove the collected water, we installed a SuperSump Premier Sump Pump, paired with an IceGuard Discharge Line to ensure the system would continue working even in freezing temperatures.

With this complete system in place, the homeowner now enjoys a dry, healthy basement and the peace of mind that their home is protected from future water intrusion!

This customer reached out regarding an old sump that was in need of replacing. We replaced the old pump with our TripleSafe sump pump that has triple the protection and keeps the basement dry. It is a three-pump system that assures protection and can handle high volumes of water and will keep operating even during a power outage. 

In this unfinished basement, a vertical crack was found, but no bowing has started. To prevent any further issues, the team installed our FlexiSpan System with Urethane injection, which is designed to permanently stop any water leakage through wall cracks. This three-part process is a fail-safe crack treatment that lets future seepage move down into the basement's sub-floor drain system that connects to the sump pump.

In this basement, the block foundation would leak every time it would rain, and the water would just sit in the corner of the room. We installed our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier around the block foundation wall that will capture any water that leaks into the home. Then we installed our WaterGuard sub-floor drain system that lies flush below the vapor barrier that carries the captured water into the sump pump system. By getting this system installed the worry of flooding will decrease and the owner will notice that the area is much dry and no more water leaks in the home.
