This customer called regarding the flooring above the crawlspace and noticed water intrusion during rain. We installed our SilverGlo vapor barrier around the walls of the crawlspace, keeping any moisture or humidity.

At this property, the homeowner was getting water up through the floor and couldn't pump it out fast enough. We were able to remove the old pump and install our SuperSump system with a Zoeller M63 cast iron pump. This system is reliable for its longevity and is capable of pumping out up to 2,220 gallons per hour, keeping your basement dry and free from water.

At this Chester home, the basement walls had begun to leak during heavy rainfall, which was causing water on the floor. We installed our CleanSpace Vapor barrier on the contracted walls, which will then capture all leakage coming through and carry it down to the sub-floor drain. This poly sheet material will seal against leaks that come through the walls and keep water out of the basement, then into the sub-floor drain.

Chester Basement Waterproofing Contractor

Quality 1st Basement Systems is the local, family owned contractor in Chester for waterproofing, finishing, and crawl space repair. With over 75 years combined experience and a full-time, professional staff we are ready to serve you and improve your home. 

Basement Waterproofing & Crawl Space Repair in Chester

Flooding, water seepage or even high humidity can quickly result in mold growth and water damage in your basement or crawl space. We prevent this from happening by installing an interior drainage system in the basement that is connected to a high volume sump pump. Any water that makes it to the basement is collected and pumped out of the home without you even noticing. 

Just like the basement, in the crawl space we similarly place a sump pump system and dehumidifier to prevent water issues. The entire area is encapsulated with vapor barrier to prevent mold growth. Our crawl space system comes with a 25-year warranty. 

We Provide:
  • Basement Waterproofing
  • Crawl Space Encapsulation
  • Exclusive, Patented Products
  • Humidity Control
  • Structural Repair
  • Basement Egress Windows
You Receive:
  • Permanently Dry Basement
  • Clean Protected Crawlspace
  • Protection against Mold
  • Improved Home Value

If the walls of the basement or bowing inwards we install wall anchors or braces to straighten the walls. If the floor above the crawl space is sagging we install SmartJack support jacks to raise the floor back to a level position. Our Chester waterproofing systems come with lifetime warranties. 

Basement Finishing & Remodeling in Chester, PA

Waterproofing your basement prevents outside water from coming in but what if a pipe bursts or the water heater leaks inside the home. A newly finished basement done by your average contractor will mold and rot if there is an internal leak. You'll have to tear out your new basement! We fix this issue.

Our Products Include :
  • Waterproof, washable, insulated walls           
  • Mold-Resistant, No-Sag suspended ceiling
  • Modular carpet, tile & faux wood flooring
  • Basement egress windows

  • Energy-efficient, double-paned basement windows
  • Attractive Sunhouse basement window wells
  • French, bifold, louvre & six-paneled steel doors

Unlike the average Chester contractor we use completely inorganic, waterproof materials. Even if the basement floods your walls and floors will not be damaged by the water. These waterproof products are patented and are built to create an attractive finished basement that lasts a lifetime.
