Recently, we at Quality 1st had the privilege to assist a homeowner in Newark, DE, who was dealing with a basement waterproofing issue that just couldn't be ignored. After heavy rains, they noticed their basement's existing French drain system couldn't keep up. They reached out to us, wanting a reliable and long-lasting solution to ensure their basement remained dry and comfortable all year round. The solution we rolled out included the installation of WaterGuard, an interior drainage system designed to capture wall and floor seepage before it reaches the basement floor. Complementing this system, we installed a TripleSafe Sump Pump, the heart of the basement waterproofing system with its triple-layer protection, ensuring the basement stays dry, even in heavy rains.

Job Stories From Newark, DE
Basement Waterproofing Solution in Newark, DE

At Quality 1st, we recently had the pleasure of assisting a homeowner in Newark, DE, whose existing french drain system was no match for the relentless heavy rain storms they were experiencing. Understandably, this was causing them unnecessary stress and concern for the well-being of their home. They reached out to us, hoping for a durable solution and a worry-free reassurance. As with all our projects, the journey to a dry basement began with our Customer Care team, who quickly coordinated a home inspection to delve into the root of the issue. Our System Design Specialist, Chris paid a visit, inspecting every inch of the basement area. The diagnosis? The overwhelmed french drain system required a robust upgrade to effectively manage the water issue. The recommendation was clear: install our reliable WaterGuard system and the TripleSafe Sump Pump. The second part of their relief came as our proficient production team arrived on-site, equipped, and ready to transform their basement into a dry, safe space. The WaterGuard system was strategically installed around the perimeter of the basement floor to catch water at its most likely entry points before it even hits the surface. Then, the TripleSafe Sump Pump, a powerhouse of moisture management, was put in place to ensure water collected from the WaterGuard gets efficiently expelled away from the home, no matter the volume of incoming water. 

Resolving Moisture Concerns In Newark, DE Crawl Space

This Newark, DE, homeowner had been dealing with constant water seepage in their crawl space, which was causing damp conditions, musty odors, and concerns about mold growth. The moisture in the crawl space was not only affecting the air quality inside the home but also risking the structural integrity of the foundation. Fed up with this ongoing problem and eager to protect their home, the homeowner contacted Quality 1st for a reliable solution to eliminate the water seepage once and for all.

After an in-depth inspection of the crawl space, our team determined the best course of action would be to install a combination of effective systems that would work together to keep the area dry and moisture-free.

Next our crews first step was to install our patented Drainage Matting, a key component designed to allow water to flow freely toward the homeowners designated drainage system. The matting creates a protective layer beneath the crawl space floor that helps efficiently channel water away from the foundation, preventing moisture buildup and water damage. Following this, we installed our WaterGuard Drainage System along the perimeter of the crawl space. This advanced system was strategically placed to capture any incoming water and direct it to the sump pump, ensuring the crawl space remained dry, even during heavy rainfall or seasonal changes.

To complete the system, we added our SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump, specifically designed for crawl space applications. The pump effectively removes any water that is collected by the Drainage Matting and WaterGuard system, ensuring that water is continuously redirected away from the crawl space and foundation. Equipped with a powerful pump and a battery backup, the SmartSump guarantees that the crawl space remains dry, even in the event of power outages.

The transformation of the crawl space was remarkable. With the combined installation of the Drainage Matting, WaterGuard Drainage System, and SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump, the crawl space was completely dry, healthy, and secure. The homeowner was thrilled with the results, knowing their home was now protected from the damaging effects of water seepage. The air quality improved, mold growth was prevented, and the foundation was safeguarded, allowing the homeowner to have peace of mind and a more comfortable living environment!
