Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Ongoing water intrusion in the basement had left this Oxford, PA homeowner deeply concerned about the risk of structural damage and unhealthy mold growth. Seeking a permanent fix, they reached out to Quality 1st for expert guidance.

Following a thorough inspection, our team designed a customized waterproofing solution tailored to the specific needs of the home. The plan included the installation of our patented WaterGuard Drainage System to capture seepage at the foundation level, along with our TripleSafe Sump Pump System for powerful, triple-layer protection, ensuring reliable performance even during severe weather or power outages.

To further safeguard the space, we installed our SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier to regulate humidity and prevent mold, as well as our IceGuard Discharge Line to keep the system operational through freezing temperatures. BrightWall Panels were added to create a clean, moisture-resistant barrier that channels wall seepage directly into the drainage system.

Together, these components form a dynamic, high-performance defense against water damage, transforming the basement into a dry, healthy environment and giving the homeowner long-term peace of mind!

This 150 year old church home had a leaky basement that was left unattended for years. During those unattended years, walls were flaking, mold was beginning to grow, and there was a strong, constant musty odor no matter the time of season. We came out and installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier, WaterGuard a SuperSump Pump, Iceguard and a SaniDry XP Dehumidifier. This system will keep your basement dry during the rainy seasons and humidity low during those hot humid months. 

This PA home had a French drain and sump pump currently in their basement, but with a heavy rain, water would intrude through the walls and the drain system and the pump would just hold the water instead of getting rid of it. Basement Systems came out and installed our Cleanspace Vapor on the problematic walls. We replaced their current drain system with our Waterguard and then upgraded their sump to our TripleSafe Sump Pump.  

This homeowner in Atglen, PA had our previous dehumidifier model, the SaniDry XP installed many years ago. However, with our newest model out, the SaniDry Sedona, this homeowner reached out for the upgrade! Our team meticulously made the switch and ensured the system was running smoothly.

In Charlestown, MD, a homeowner was facing constant water seepage in their garage, creating a damp, uncomfortable, and potentially hazardous environment. Concerned about the long-term impact on their home and health, they reached out to Quality 1st Basement Systems for help.

After a thorough inspection, our team proposed a dynamic waterproofing solution tailored to the garage’s needs. We installed our patented WaterGuard Drainage System and TrenchDrain to capture and redirect water before it could spread across the floor. These systems were connected to our TripleSafe Sump Pump, which offers triple the protection, including a battery backup to keep the system running even during power outages.

To further protect the space and enhance its usability, we installed CleanSpace Wall Panels to block moisture and improve the garage’s overall appearance. An IceGuard Discharge Line was added to ensure water can still be discharged even if exterior pipes freeze in the winter. Finally, a new Egress Window brought in natural light, improved ventilation, and ensured the space met emergency exit safety standards.

With these upgrades in place, the homeowner now has a dry, healthy, and functional garage, and peace of mind knowing their home is protected year-round!
