Persistent basement moisture can quickly turn a functional space into a source of stress for any homeowner. In Matawan, NJ, one resident had been battling water intrusion caused by cracks in their foundation walls. Tired of dealing with the damp environment and concerned about potential long-term damage, they contacted Quality 1st for a permanent fix. Our team performed a full inspection and developed a customized waterproofing solution designed to address both the symptoms and the root cause of the problem.

We began by installing our patented WaterGuard Drainage System, which captures water at the foundation level and directs it to our SuperSump Premier Sump Pump for fast, efficient removal. To ensure the system performs year-round, especially during freezing conditions, we added our IceGuard Discharge Line to prevent backups from frozen pipes. To further protect the space, we lined the walls with CleanSpace Wall Panels to block moisture and humidity, and finished with EverLast Wall Panels, a durable, mold-resistant solution that gives the basement a clean, finished look.

A homeowner in Matawan, New Jersey had water coming into their basement and contacted Quality 1st for a solution. Our System Design Specialist inspected the basement and suggested it be waterproofed. WaterGuard was installed along the perimeter of the basement underneath the floor slab, on top of the foundation footing to prevent clogging. WaterGuard collects the water that seeps through the basement walls and directs it to the sump pump. The TripleSafe sump pump was installed in the basement for ultimate protection. The TripleSafe has three levels of pumps built inside so in case of one failure, the next lower level pumps will kick in. The WaterGuard and TripleSafe will keep this basement dry and healthy.
