This Nutley, NJ basement was undergoing serious water issues and high humidity causing signs of mold growth. The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems for a solution. System Design Specialist, Laszlo, recommended full basement waterproofing, along with our CleanSpace Moisture Barrier and SaniDry Sedona. First step to stop water seepage that leaks through the foundation walls and up from the floor. Secondly, a dehumidifier such as the SaniDry, will help remove any moisture to prevent musty smells and mold growth. Lastly, CleanSpace works as a barrier on the walls to prevent moisture from passing through, working with the system to control the environment and keep the space dry.

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!

Addressing Basement Water Seepage In Nutley, NJ
Job Stories From Nutley, NJ
Foundation Support in Nutley, NJ

When this homeowner from Nutley, NJ noticed sagging floors and doors that no longer closed properly in their home, they suspected an issue beneath the surface. A quick inspection revealed the problem: weakened support beams in their crawl space were compromising the structural integrity of their home. To fix it, they turned to SmartJack, a proven solution for crawlspace stabilization.

Professional installers placed heavy-duty steel SmartJacks beneath the failing beams, providing immediate support and lifting the floor back toward its original position. Unlike temporary fixes, SmartJacks are fully adjustable and designed to provide long-term stability, even in poor soil conditions. Now, the homeowner enjoys level floors, properly aligned doors, and the peace of mind that their home is built on a solid foundation.

Assessing Basement Water Seepage In Nutley, NJ

In Nutley, NJ, a homeowner had been battling persistent moisture issues in their basement for several months. After heavy rains, water would seep through the walls and floor, leaving behind damp spots and a musty odor that spread throughout the lower levels of their home. Despite using a few DIY methods, the water intrusion continued, leading the homeowner to worry about potential mold growth, water damage, and the long-term effects on their foundation. Frustrated and concerned, they contacted Quality 1st for an expert solution to address the moisture problem once and for all. After a thorough inspection of the basement, our team recommended installing our specially patented WaterGuard Drainage System and TripleSafe Sump Pump System. We started by installing the WaterGuard system along the perimeter of the basement, which captures water from the walls and floor, directing it to the sump pump. This unique system prevents water from sitting against the foundation, reducing the risk of mold and mildew growth. To ensure reliable water removal, we also installed the TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which includes three powerful pumps—one primary, one backup, and a battery-powered backup for added protection during power outages. This combination ensures that any water entering the basement is quickly and efficiently pumped out, no matter the conditions. The basement, once plagued by moisture and a musty smell, was now dry and fresh. The WaterGuard Drainage System worked seamlessly, efficiently channeling water away from the home, while the TripleSafe Sump Pump provided peace of mind, knowing their basement would stay dry even during heavy rains or power failures. With the problem finally resolved, the homeowner now has a safe, healthy, and inviting basement—free from the worries of water intrusion and mold damage—ready to be used for storage, a living area, or whatever they desire!

Resolving Moisture Issues In Nutley, NJ Crawl Space

This Nutley, NJ, homeowner had been struggling with persistent moisture issues in their crawl space for months. Despite attempts to address the problem with temporary solutions, the dampness continued to cause mold growth and unpleasant odors that spread throughout their home. With the moisture problem worsening, they became increasingly concerned about the potential structural damage to their foundation and the health risks associated with mold and mildew. Deciding it was time for a permanent solution, the homeowner contacted Quality 1st to inspect their crawl space and provide a lasting remedy.

After conducting a thorough assessment, our team recommended a comprehensive waterproofing approach to address the moisture intrusion. We began by installing our specially patented Drainage Matting along the crawl space floor, which helps guide water toward the sump pump, preventing moisture buildup and ensuring effective water removal. To further protect the space, we installed SilverGlo Insulation Panels on the walls, which not only provide superior thermal insulation but also create a moisture-resistant barrier, preventing mold growth and improving the energy efficiency of the home. Finally, we sealed the crawl space with our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, a durable, impermeable liner that completely encapsulates the area and prevents water vapor from seeping in. Once the installation was complete, the transformation was remarkable. The crawl space was no longer damp or musty; it was dry, clean, and free from the moisture that had previously caused so many issues. The SilverGlo Insulation Panels helped regulate the temperature, while the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier created a seamless, protective layer that eliminated the risk of future water intrusion. The homeowner now enjoys a healthy, energy-efficient crawl space, and they no longer have to worry about the ongoing moisture problems that once plagued their home. With this complete solution, their home is safer, more comfortable, and better protected for years to come.

Wet Basement Repair in Nutley, NJ

A homeowner in Nutley, NJ was having water seep into their basement creating puddles. Water seepage can cause many issues within your home including dampness, rotting, molding, and pesticide attraction. It is important to resolve the problem before it can get worse. After speaking with our customer service representative, the appointment was scheduled for our System Design Technician, Randy Halal.

Randy arrived at the home, on time, and proceeded to inspect the basement. He found small cracks within the basement walls that allowed water to enter the basement when it rained. He presented this to the homeowner and suggested our WaterGuard French Drain System would be the perfect repair solution. 

Our WaterGuard System collects water seeping into the basement and directs it to the sump pump. Like our other waterproofing products, WaterGuard will not rust and it's installed above the 'mud zone' so it will never clog with water and dirt. 

Since the installation, the homeowner did not have any other water issues in their basement. 

It’s Never Too Late to Waterproof Your Nutley, NJ Basement

Richard & Sharon L. bought their house over 20 years ago and the house itself is over 100 years old.  Every time it rained they would get more and more water in the basement.  This problem went on for years, but recent heavy storms really pushed these homeowners to the brink- it was time for some professional waterproofing help!  They contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems who sent John Patterson out to come up with a permanent basement waterproofing solution.

John suggested a SuperSump sump pump with the UltraSump battery backup.  This sump pump is the best in the business with its ability to pump 2220 gallons per hour at an 8-foot discharge head.  Also, the UltraSump battery backup ensures that the pump will continuously run even if there is a power outage.  Water will continue to come in no matter what, so Quality 1st Basement Systems makes sure that you have products that will effectively keep up.  Additionally, the EverLast wall restoration system and CleanSpace wall vapor barrier was installed.  These products keep the basement bright and clean, while guaranteeing that water is drained away from the walls and straight to the sump pump. 

With these products Richard & Sharon L. no longer have to worry about water in their basement.  No matter how old your basement is or how long you’ve been living there, we always have a permanent basement waterproofing solution for you! 

Basement Waterproofing for Apartment Building

The Accent Group owns an apartment building in Nutley, NJ that would continuously gets water in the basement whenever there was a heavy storm.  During the last major storm, there were even a couple feet of water in the basement, as well as flooding outside the building.

Waterproofing specialist Don A went out to assess the building and determined that a TripleSafe sump pump, SuperSump, UltraSump battery backup, SaniDry dehumidifier, and TrenchDrain would all be necessary to keep the space dry during any weather conditions.  The TripleSafe sump pump offers the ultimate protect for basement waterproofing.  It has two pumps that will turn on if there is enough water flooding in, and even a battery backup that will switch on if one of the pumps fails unexpectedly.  Additionally, the SaniDry basement dehumidifier is energy-efficient and ensures that the basement is free of moisture, allowing Ross, the buildings owner, to use the space for storage if needed.

All in all, the project was a success.  The Accent Group knows that no matter what weather they face, their apartment building will be a safe and dry place for all the residents thanks to the basement waterproofing experts from Quality 1st Basement Systems.     

WaterGuard Installation in Nutley, NJ

Do you have water coming up from the basement floor and pooling water in the corners?  Well, this is exactly the situation Joyce K. found in her father-in-laws basement.  She contacted her local waterproofing contractor Quality 1st Basement Systems for a free estimate to get the water completely taken care of.

Kenny Tramutola came out to the house and suggested a SuperSump sump pump, LawnScape outlet, IceGuard system that allows water to escape from a sump pump discharge line if the pipe freezes or becomes blocked for any reason, and the WaterGuard interior basement waterproofing system.  The patented WaterGuard waterproofing system is effective because it doesn’t sit in the soil under your basement floor, but instead sits above it to keep from clogging.  This ensures that water will always be able to collect and then drain to the SuperSump and be pumped directly out of the basement.

These waterproofing solutions will keep Joyce K.’s basement dry for years to come.  She will no longer have to worry about basement flooding because of the WaterGuard installation and SuperSump sump pump installation that keep the basement dry no matter what the conditions are.

We have a growing crack developing in our upstairs bedroom. It begins on one side of the room and is now going down the other side. We have several other serious cracks on the outside of the home (e.g. stairs leading up to the house (mostly from the shoveling and salt 2 winters ago) as well as the stairs on the side of the home). Wondering if this is a foundational problem or due to the extreme weather conditions and if they can be repaired. It's best to text or email me with suggested times/further questions as I work until 5pm every evening. Thank you.
