Addressing Water Seepage In Sparrows Point, MD
Challenge
In Sparrows Point, MD, a homeowner began noticing consistent water seepage in their basement, a problem that quickly escalated from an inconvenience to a serious concern. Over time, the homeowner became increasingly worried about the potential for structural decay, mold growth, and rot as water seepage continued unchecked. Fearing long-term damage to their home, they decided to reach out to Quality 1st for a permanent solution that would protect their property and prevent further issues.
Solution
Our team responded quickly, conducting a thorough inspection of the basement to fully assess the extent of the water intrusion. Based on our findings, we developed a customized waterproofing plan tailored to address the specific needs of the homeowner’s basement. The solution included our patented WaterGuard Drainage System, designed to capture water at the wall-floor joint and direct it safely to a sump pump. We also installed our TrenchDrain System at vulnerable entry points, such as the basement entryway, to intercept surface water before it could seep into the space. To address the moisture coming through the walls, we added CleanSpace Wall Panels to serve as a vapor barrier and brighten the basement with a clean, finished look. To ensure year-round protection, we installed our IceGuard Discharge Line, which allows water to safely escape even if the discharge line freezes in colder weather. Finally, the TripleSafe Sump Pump was installed, offering three pumps for ultimate protection, one primary pump, a secondary pump for heavy water flow, and a battery backup to keep the system running during power outages. With these high-performance systems working together, the homeowner's basement is now completely dry, healthy, and restored to a pleasant, usable space, free from any moisture-related issues and protected for the future.
