Gradually increasing moisture levels began to compromise this New Castle, DE basement, prompting the homeowner to become concerned about the risks of structural damage and potential mold growth. Understanding that excess moisture can negatively impact both the foundation and indoor air quality, they reached out to the professionals at Quality 1st Basement Systems for a lasting solution. Taking a proactive approach helped ensure the problem would be addressed before more serious issues developed.
After a detailed inspection by our System Design Specialist, a customized waterproofing plan was designed to address both water intrusion and humidity control. The solution included the installation of our patented TrenchDrain System to manage surface water, TripleSafe Sump Pump for reliable water removal, ThermalDry Basement Sub Floor Matting to create a warmer and moisture-resistant foundation, and our SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier to maintain healthy humidity levels.
Working together, these advanced systems now protect the basement from future moisture concerns while restoring it to a clean, dry, and comfortable living space!
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.
Ongoing concerns arose for a New Castle, DE homeowner when worsening cracks along their basement walls began allowing moisture to seep inside, raising the risk of structural decay and mold growth. Recognizing the potential long-term damage, the homeowner reached out to Quality 1st for a dependable solution.
Our team conducted a thorough inspection to determine the root cause of the cracking, allowing us to develop a repair plan that would address both the structural instability and the moisture intrusion affecting the basement.
Based on our findings, we recommended installing our patented FlexiSpan Wall Crack Repair System, designed to provide a flexible, watertight seal that adapts to future foundation movement. This advanced repair method not only stops existing leaks but also ensures continuous protection should the crack shift over time.
Once the system was installed, the basement walls were restored to a stable, dry, and secure condition, giving the homeowner renewed confidence in the safety and durability of their home!
