Eradicating Moisture Intrusion In Fair Lawn, NJ
Challenge
A faint musty odor drifting from the basement was the first indication that something wasn’t right for this Fair Lawn, NJ homeowner. What initially appeared to be minor dampness quickly escalated into a persistent moisture issue, raising concerns about mold, indoor air quality, and the long-term integrity of the home’s foundation. Recognizing the need for a permanent fix rather than temporary patches, the homeowner reached out to Quality 1st for expert assistance and a professional evaluation.
Solution
During our inspection, the team identified the precise pathways where water was infiltrating the basement.

Additionally, we incorporated our IceGuard Discharge Line to ensure water could exit freely even during harsh winter freezes. With all components successfully installed, the homeowner now benefits from a dry, structurally sound, and healthier basement environment.
