Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Nutley homeowner called Quality 1st with problems of water coming into the basement leaving puddles of water all over.  A Quality 1st System Design Specialist determined that the customer had a faulty (almost non-existent) sump pump and would need a WaterGuard system to stop the water from seeping in through floors and foundation.  A TripleSafe Sump Pump was installed with the waterproofing system so the customer no longer has any concerns about water in his basement!

In East Orange, NJ, this homeowner started observing ongoing water seepage in their basement as a result of heavy rainfall, which started to create increasingly damp structural conditions. The homeowner was determined to eliminate the water seepage and avoid the potential for rot and mold-growth, prompting them to reach out to Quality 1st for a long-term solution. 

Once our team of experts were contacted, we were able to identify key water entry points and created a tailored waterproofing approach that would fully address the homeowners exact needs.
