Sump pumps will fail if they are over worked with no maintenance in between. Our Systems get checked annually to make sure they are working properly to protect your home. 

Our TripleSafe Sump pump has a back up battery to allow the pump to continue working even in a power outage. The airtight lid will prevent moisture and water vapor from evaporating back into the basement.

The drainage system also works as part of crawl space encapsulation.

Foundation Repair & Concrete Leveling

Whatever the issue we are the trusted foundation repair contractor. Our foundation repair experts will visit your home, identify the issue and recommend the right solution. We provide permanent foundation repairs using non-invasive methods. There is no need to tear up your entire yard to fix the foundation.

Job Stories From Hawthorne, NJ
Foundation Settlement in Hawthorne, NJ

A home in Hawthorne, New Jersey had signs of foundation settlement and contacted Quality 1st for a solution. Our System Design Specialist inspected the foundation and recommended that Helical Piers be installed in the soil to provide anchoring strength as the weight of the foundation is transferred to the pier. Helical Piers are ideal for stabilizing and restoring foundations and are fast and effective.      

Uneven Sidewalk in Hawthorne, NJ

A homeowner in Hawthorne, New Jersey had an uneven sidewalk that needed to be lifted back to its original position. Quality 1st was contacted to help level this sidewalk back to its original position. Our experts used PolyLevel, a polyurethane foam was injected into the concrete and started expanding and working within minutes. PolyLevel is a fast and permanent solution to lifting and leveling concrete. 

Damp Crawl Space in Hawthorne, NJ

A crawl space in Hawthorne, New Jersey was damp, cold and a place that the homeowners avoided.

Quality 1st System Design Specialist inspected the crawl space and recommended a full encapsulation system to eliminate the dampness and coldness. This will turn the crawl space into an area that is usable and the homeowners can use for storage. 

Wet Basement in Hawthorne, NJ

A homeowner in Hawthorne, New Jersey had water in their basement and contacted Quality 1st for a solution.

Our System Design Specialist inspected the basement and noticed the signs of water the homeowner had reported. WaterGuard was installed under the floor slab, on top of the foundation footing to keep the system out of the mud zone. This ensures that the system will not get clogged and there will not be an unsightly drain around the basement. A sump pump was also installed to ensure that any more water would be pumped out of the basement to keep it dry.  

WaterGuard Sub-Floor Drainage System Redirects Water Seepage in Hawthorne Basement

George F., homeowner in Hawthorne, knew he needed professional help with problems with water in his basement.  He contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems, waterproofing experts, to schedule a free inspection and estimate as advertised.    

George decided to have Quality 1st Basement Systems take care of his problem with the installation of two SuperSumps, located in opposite corners of the basement, to remove water build up.  The SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System is designed to provide excellent defense against water intrusion.  Each includes a powerful and efficient cast iron pump capable of removing 2,220 gallons of water per hour.  George decided that his basement would be well-protected with these pumps.

As time went on, however, George realized that he would benefit from the installation of a WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system.  This perimeter drainage system allows water seepage from the walls to be directed toward the sump pump to be removed from the basement altogether.  It is installed with minimal disruption, only opening up a small area of the slab along the walls.  The concrete is thereafter restored to provide a clean appearance while keeping water from pooling on the basement floor.

Once Quality 1st Basement Systems completed the second phase of the installation, George could really take a sigh of relief, now assured more than ever that water seepage would be directed outside of the home with the help of the WaterGuard drainage System and the SuperSumps, keeping George’s basement area drier.

We moved into this home two years ago. It has a good size basement crawl space. It doesn't have an insulation/encapsulation barrier etc. There's a plastic tarp on the dirt floor. I am also a bit concerned about the crawlspace foundation with respect to moisture, damage, critters, etc. It's creepy and dingy. I would like to make it dry, bright, and clean.
