Quality 1st Basement Systems serving Passaic, NJ

Victor W. had water in his basement and was looking for a reliable basement waterproofing estimate.  After contacting Quality 1^st Basement Systems, waterproofing specialist Damon Ludwig visited him and came up with a permanent plan to keep water out all year round.

In a single day, Jesus Alvarez-Sanchez and his qualified team came out and installed a SuperSump sump pump system, a TrenchDrain drainage channel, and the WaterGuard interior basement waterproofing system.  The SuperSump sump pump system is the finest pump available because it pumps 2220 gallons per hour at an 8-foot discharge head quietly and efficiently to keep the basement dry all year round.  Likewise, the TrenchDrain and WaterGuard systems are top of the line products that work together to effectively drain incoming water to the sump pump so that it can be pumped out of the basement.        

Each of these basement waterproofing solutions work together to keep water out of Victor W.’s basement, and he can now enjoy a dry space for many years to come.  Quality 1^st Basement Systems has a basement waterproofing solution for any basement water problem you are facing.  We’ll turn your leaky, wet basement into a dry, healthy space that you won’t need to worry about for years to come! 

When water is seeping into your basement, what is there to do?  For Rose E., the solution was to contact her local waterproofing specialists at Quality 1^st Basement Systems.  They have the knowledge and experience to turn a leaky basement into a dry, healthy one.

Kenneth Peare went to evaluate the problem and recommended the installation of the WaterGuard system.  This quick installation was accomplished by Victor Leon and his team of trained waterproofing professionals.  The patented WaterGuard interior basement waterproofing system they installed is specifically designed as a basement drain that intercepts water at the perimeter of your basement and drains it to a sump pump.  This system will effectively keep the basement floor dry because it utilizes the best waterproofing technologies.     

After the installation of the WaterGuard system, Rose E. no longer has to worry about the possibility of her belongings getting damaged by basement water.  Her basement is now dry and safe for anything!

When Sal in Wayne, New Jersey wanted to sell his home, he knew the wet basement had to be waterproofed before he could list it. On the recommendation of his realtor, he called Quality 1^st Basement Systems. Waterproofing expert, Ken Peare, inspected the basement and suggested the WaterGuard Drainage System and SuperSump Sump Pump to remove all the water seeping into the basement. A TrenchDrain by the back door would prevent water from coming in through the basement stairs and the IceGuard Discharge Line would prevent the system from freezing.

When the Quality 1^st Basement Waterproofing crew arrived on time, they got right to work installing the complete Waterproofing System. They worked quickly and answered all the homeowner’s questions. Sal was impressed with their professionalism. Now the basement is dry and Sal’s ready to list his home. He’ll be calling Quality 1^st again to waterproof his new home.

Paula W. wanted a cleaner, neater, less damp crawl space.  She searched the internet and found Quality 1^st Basement Systems.  She requested a free estimate.  Soon thereafter, she was contacted and an appointment was scheduled to have John Schweitzer, a waterproofing and crawl space specialist, visit her home to provide a thorough inspection as well as a plan for a no-worry crawl space.  John provided Paula with the solution she wanted.

Quality 1^st Basement Systems installed a Clean Space Crawl Space Encapsulation System to give Paula the cleaner, neater, drier area she wanted.  Paula was so pleased with the results that she shared the news about the free estimate, quality work, and reasonable price with her neighbors in Edgewater, NJ!

Agnus S. from Clifton, NJ was hoping to eliminate dampness and water problems in her crawlspace.  She scheduled an appointment to have Waterproofing Specialist Dan McNally out to inspect the problem area and develop a plan for resolving the wetness beneath the home.  The next step was to put the plan into action!

Project Manager Victor Leon brought his crew to Agnus’s property and began the remediation process of waterproofing the crawl space by installing SmartPipe drainage pipe around the perimeter, designed to collect water from foundation walls and floors of dirt crawl spaces. CleanSpace Drainage Matting was installed on the floor to eliminate sitting water and direct it to the drainage system. The SuperSump would pump the water out and away from the home and disperse it onto the lawn through the LawnScape discharge outlet.  IceGuard was included along the discharge route for colder months, to prevent flooding if ice begins to block the way.  

Additionally, the waterproofing plan included TerraBlock padded insulation to provide additional moisture protection while boosting energy efficiency.  SilverGlo Insulation Panels would further the energy efficiency by reflecting heat back into the crawl space. Lastly, a CleanSpace liner was installed to complete the encapsulation by further preventing vapor from making its way into the crawl space.

By the end of the project, Agnus S. found her crawl space transformed from a dark, dank, dirt-floor space beneath her home to a cleaner, brighter, drier area isolated from the earth.  She would also experience a warmer main level of her home but with energy-cost savings!

Kyle S. became concerned when he noticed water coming in through one corner of his basement.  He knew he needed assistance, so he called to schedule a no-obligation, free estimate with one of Quality 1^st Basement System’s waterproofing specialists.  A complete and thorough inspection followed as well as an offer for an affordable and efficient solution to his basement problem.   

A Quality 1^st installation crew headed by Juan Garcia mobilized to Passaic, NJ to begin fixing Kyle’s basement. As part of the design, WaterGuard was installed along two of the basement walls to direct incoming water toward the SuperSump system.  The pump would then direct the water out of the home through the discharge lines and disperse it away from the home through an underground extension leading to the LawnScape, the discharge outlet.  The IceGuard, installed outside of the home in the line of discharge, would provide added protection in winter months to prevent flooding if the discharge line freezes.

Kyle’s decision to have Quality 1^st Basement Systems fix his basement alleviated his worries.  Now he no longer has to look at a wet corner of his basement, problem solved! 

No one wants difficulties when planning to sell a home.  Stephen C. in Wayne, NJ knew that the best way to draw potential homebuyers was to make all necessary repairs to the home before putting it on the market.  With an engineer’s report indicating foundation problems, Stephen set into action to get repairs done.  He contacted Quality 1^st Basement Systems to schedule a free estimate. 

Foundation specialist Dan McNally inspected the basement, closely taking notice of the horizontal crack in one of the walls.  He proposed CarbonArmor fabric straps, with their stronger-than-concrete strength and low-profile design, in conjunction with ArmorLock anchorage system to secure and stabilize the fracturing block foundation.  Additionally, the adjustable PowerBrace System with tightening capabilities would potentially straighten and improve the wall over time.

Quality 1^st Basement Systems was happy to install these foundation repair systems to alleviate the concerns addressed by the engineers.  Once the revolutionary wall straps, anchors, and braces were installed, the customer could present the home for sale with confidence in the newly secured and stabilized foundation.  

The excitement that comes with purchasing a new home is unmatched.  Imagine, however, that during a heavy rain, you notice the basement in your dream home starting to accumulate water.  A homeowner in Long Branch found himself in such a situation. He contacted Quality 1^st Basement Systems to schedule a free estimate from a company with expertise in waterproofing.   

One of Quality 1st’s waterproofing specialists, Dan McNally, proposed a waterproofing system tailored to meet the homeowner’s basement waterproofing needs.  He included a full-perimeter WaterGuard system, both an UltraSump and SuperSump sump pump, and a FloodRing.  The WaterGuard is a sub-floor drainage system which directs wall seepage to the pumps for discharge.  Installation of a FloodRing around the water heater is a preventative measure to contain any water leakage and direct it to the WaterGuard.

With the efficient waterproofing system installed by a production crew, the new homeowner was surely happy that Quality 1^st Basement Systems helped alleviate his worries about water in his basement!

A Little Falls homeowner had a wet basement and was ready to find a solution.  She searched the internet and found Quality 1^st Basement Systems. 

A Quality 1^st Basement Waterproofing Specialist visited the homeowner, completed a thorough interior and exterior inspection of her basement, and determined the best solution to the water problems she was experiencing.  The homeowner received a free estimate for the proposed work and the specialist answered all of her questions and addressed any concerns.

A Quality 1^st Basement Systems installation crew mobilized to Little Falls, NJ to fix the homeowner’s basement.  They installed a full-perimeter WaterGuard (to channel and direct any water seepage); a TrenchLock trench drain (which spans doorways to collect water from outside and connects to the WaterGuard); a SuperSump Sump Pump System (to efficiently and reliably remove water from the basement area); an IceGuard (designed to prevent flooding in the event of frozen discharge pipes); and a LawnScape outlet (to direct discharge water away from the home and disperse it on the lawn). 

With all of the waterproofing systems working in conjunction with one another, Quality 1^st Basement Systems helped to create a more secure, drier basement.  Additionally, the homeowner’s worries about having a wet basement were eased.  

A basement area in Little Falls, NJ, providing some extra living space, one day catches the homeowner off guard.  Somehow, mold began to grow beneath the carpeting and Dick K. was quite dismayed at this discovery.  He wanted to replace the carpeting, but certainly didn’t want the same damage to happen again. He contacted Quality 1^st Basement Systems. 

Waterproofing Specialist Dan McNally visited the Little Falls home and completed an inspection of the basement area.  He explained that mold grows when given the proper conditions, such as dampness or a high humidity level and organic materials.  Since wetness coming through the Dick’s basement floor provided an ideal situation for the unwanted mold to grow, Dan suggested that before the carpeting be replaced, ThermalDry Floor Matting be installed.  He provided a free estimate to the homeowner, answered all of his questions, and addressed any concerns.

ThermalDry Floor Matting is composed of plastic, inorganic tiles.  They are lock-tight squares which provide an airspace under the carpet, preventing water vapor from getting trapped, thus preventing mold growth.  Dick K. was happy to have Quality 1^st Basement Systems provide a great solution at a great price as well as the absence of worry about mold growth under the basement carpeting!

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

George decided to have Quality 1^st 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 1^st 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.  

Quality 1st Basement Systems received a call from a homeowner living in Paterson, NJ who was experiencing water and moisture in the crawl space of the home they had lived in for almost 30 years. The crawl space had standing water and efflorescence all over the walls.

Next, CleanSpace, a Vapor Barrier, was installed to the floors and walls to protect the crawl space and the foundation from moisture. The doors were replaced with EverLast Crawl Space Doors which tightly seal the crawl space off from water, cold drafts, animals and humidity. With new windows and a  Vapor Barrier System, the Paterson Crawl space would stay dry and protected against the outside environment. The Paterson homeowner was amazed at the crawl space transformation and recommended us to several family members experiencing the same type of crawl space concerns.

Quality 1st Basements was able to help a family in need of structural support when it came to their sinking front stoop. Over the years the stoop gradually began to settle and pull away from the foundation of the home. Quality 1st sent Senior Design Specialist, Ken Peare, out to do a full inspection and design a solution. He noticed serious settlement underneath the stoop. He explained that settlement is cause by usually one of  three things: the soil below the stoop was either poorly compacted, too wet or too dry. Over time the soil could no longer hold that much weight causing the stoop to sink. 

Ken recommended Helical Piers be installed underneath the stoop to lift and stabilize. A Helical Pier is an ideal solution for permanently stabilizing regardless of the weight and structure. First, soil is removed from the area around the stoop where each Helical Pier will be installed. Using specialized hydraulic equipment, the first pier section is screwed into the ground. Additional steel sections are then added to extend the pier to the appropriate depths and capacities, and a steel foundation bracket is connected to the helical piers and attached to the foundation's footing. The weight of the home is then transferred through the Helical Piers onto the competent load-bearing soils deep below the surface. Once the stoop was lifted, the Piers are covered to be hidden from view. 

The stoop was not only lifted but stabilized to prevent future movement. The family was given peace of mind that they no longer had to worry about their stoop, and that the value in the home didn't decrease due to this settlement. 

Oak Ridge, NJ homeowner, Carol, discovered her basement was developing puddles every time it rained. Carol knew that she needed a permanent solution, so she began her search on Google for basement waterproofing solutions. Carol discovered Quality 1st Basement Systems, and decided to schedule an estimate about reading some of our reviews. 

After a quick phone call, Carol had an appointment scheduled with our System Design Specialist, Dane C., to come and provide a quote for her basement.

Since her basement has been fully waterproofed, Carol did not experience any puddles forming ever again. She was thrilled to see her basement fully dry and secure, resulting in her full satisfaction with Quality 1st Basement Systems. 

A resident in Clifton, New Jersey saw their concrete walkway was sinking and settling. This can be a danger because it can cause tripping hazards and the pooling of water. Concrete shifts and becomes unlevel when the backfilled soil under the concrete settles over time and creates a void under the concrete. Another common cause is the erosion of soil under the slab. As water runs down through the cracks in the concrete, it washes the soil out as it passes through.

The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems after seeing our ad on Instagram. Our System Design Specialist, Jonathan Seminerio, helped the homeowner find a plan to fix this issue. He suggested they use polyurethane foam to fill the voids under the concrete.

Our foreman, Victor Leon, used the PolyLevel Injection System under the concrete. This is done by drilling small, penny-sized holes into the concrete slab, and injecting the polyurethane foam into the voids. The foam has expanding properties that allow for an accurate lift and level of the slab. The polyurethane foam is environmentally friendly and does not require any disruption to the existing concrete.

A homeowner in West Milford, New Jersey was looking to install a sump pump system because they were noticing water getting into their basement.

A homeowner in Jefferson, NJ was interested in lifting their sinking concrete steps, before the winter season, so they contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems. Our System Design Specialist, Jeff P., inspected the steps and measured how big the gap was. After, he presented his findings to the homeowner and recommended the concrete steps be lifted using the Polylevel Injection Method.

Polylevel is a durable and long-lasting solution for concrete repair. Some benefits of using Polylevel include it being waterproof, environmentally friendly, and quick to recover. The process involves our crew drilling small, penny-sized holes into the sinking concrete. They then use specially designed equipment to inject polyurethane foam into the empty void. Once the void has been filled, the polyurethane foam expands and lifts the concrete to its desired height. This process is repeated until the concrete steps are lifted.

After the repair, our crew did a thorough cleanup, making sure there was no foam or loose equipment laying around the property. The homeowner was very satisfied with the results!

This homeowner in Woodland Park, New Jersey noticed their concrete walkway was sinking and settling. This can happen due to the soil underneath the concrete constantly expanding and shrinking with the wet weather and dry weather.

This Ringwood, NJ, homeowner had been struggling with persistent moisture issues in their basement for months. Every time there was a heavy rainfall, water would seep through the walls, leaving damp spots on the floor and causing an unpleasant, musty odor to linger throughout the house. Despite attempts at DIY solutions, the water intrusion continued, leading to concerns about mold growth and the overall health of their living space. Realizing they needed a permanent fix, the homeowner reached out to Quality 1st for an expert assessment and solution to finally rid their basement of moisture problems. After evaluating the basement, our team recommended a comprehensive approach that included the installation of our specially patented WaterGuard Drainage System, TripleSafe Sump Pump System, and SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier.

A recent project in Clifton, NJ, highlighted our commitment to solving home issues with skill and care. A homeowner reached out to us after experiencing trouble with pests stirring up problems in their crawl space, a common issue when damp crawl spaces get out of hand. They were keen to explore encapsulation to not only deter pests but also control potential moisture damage in their home. We had one of our dedicated sales team members visit them for a complete assessment.

We recommended the CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system as the most reliable solution to tackle their issues. 

In Pompton Lakes, NJ, a homeowner reached out to us with a pressing challenge that was compromising the comfort and value of their cherished house. Built as an old summer lake retreat, this residence featured an addition that housed the kitchen and bathroom directly above a crawl space. Over the past three years, the homeowner noticed increasingly sagging floors in these areas, a problem that was beyond any ordinary fix. Our process began when the homeowner scheduled a comprehensive home inspection through us. A member of our Sales Team visited to understand the issue fully, diagnose its cause, and propose a sustainable solution for fixing the problem. Our production team was dispatched to the scene, ready to bring remarkable solutions. Our approach involved installing three key products: SmartJack, CleanSpace, and SilverGlo. The SmartJack system provided crucial stabilization for the weakened support beams, lifting the floors toward their original, level position. This was achieved by strategically placing adjustable steel columns on a secure base, neutralizing the weight distribution across the structure.

In Wayne, NJ, a homeowner grew concerned after noticing visible concrete settlement around their backyard pool deck. The uneven surfaces not only posed a potential tripping hazard but also significantly diminished the aesthetic appeal of their outdoor space. With summer gatherings approaching, the homeowner wanted to address the issue quickly and effectively. Understanding the importance of a long-term solution, they reached out to Quality 1st for professional help.

Upon arrival, our System Design Specialist conducted a comprehensive inspection of the pool deck to determine the root cause of the settlement. It was clear that shifting soil and voids beneath the concrete had caused sections of the slab to sink. Our specialist explained the problem in detail and recommended a customized repair plan that would both lift the settled areas and prevent future damage. The proposed solution involved our innovative PolyLevel Foam Injections, combined with NexusPro Joint Sealant for added durability.

Our experienced crew began the repair by drilling small holes into the affected concrete sections. Through these holes, we injected PolyLevel, a high-density polyurethane foam that expands to fill voids and lifts the concrete back to its original position. The foam cured within minutes, providing immediate stabilization. Once the concrete was level, we applied NexusPro Joint Sealant to fill and protect the cracks and joints. This flexible, UV-resistant sealant prevents water infiltration, which can lead to further erosion and settlement.

By the end of the project, the pool deck was completely restored, safe, level, and visually appealing. The homeowner was thrilled with the quick turnaround and minimal disruption to their property. Most importantly, they gained peace of mind knowing that their pool deck was not only repaired but also protected from future issues. Thanks to our tailored solution, the homeowner can now enjoy their outdoor space with confidence and pride!

Recently, we had the opportunity to assist a homeowner in Little Falls, NJ, dealing with persistent basement water issues. The homeowner reached out to us because water was seeping into their basement after heavy rains, threatening to damage their stored items and increase humidity levels. After scheduling an inspection by one of our specialists, we conducted a thorough evaluation of the basement. We determined that the best solution would be to install our WaterGuard system combined with the TripleSafe sump pump. This combination, well-regarded for its reliability and effectiveness, meant that we could provide the homeowner with a durable solution tailored to their needs. The WaterGuard system was installed first, strategically placing the drainage system below the basement floor and on top of the foundation’s footing. This setup efficiently channels water seepage from the walls into the drainage pipes.

A homeowner in Wayne, NJ found themselves grappling with a persistent and troubling issue: ongoing moisture intrusion in their crawl space. This unwelcome moisture not only threatened the structural soundness of the home but also posed serious concerns for indoor air quality and overall living conditions. Frustrated and unsure of how to proceed, the homeowner turned to Quality 1st for professional guidance and a lasting solution.

Our team of waterproofing specialists promptly responded with a extensive inspection, identifying the root causes of the moisture problems. Based on the unique conditions of the crawl space, we devised a dynamic and customized solution. The first step was the installation of our patented StarPipe Drainage System, designed to capture groundwater and direct it safely away from the foundation. To enhance moisture resistance and thermal performance, we added SilverGlo Insulation Panels and Drainage Matting, working in tandem to regulate temperature and protect against damp conditions.

To further ensure water would never accumulate unchecked, we installed the SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump, a high-efficiency system engineered specifically for crawl spaces. This pump is equipped with a reliable liner, airtight lid, and alarm system, providing peace of mind and automatic water removal in the event of intrusion. To complete the encapsulation, our team applied the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System, a durable liner that seals out moisture, mold, and pests, effectively isolating the home from the earth below.

The transformation was remarkable. What was once a damp, unhealthy crawl space became a dry, insulated, and protected area that now supports better air quality, structural integrity, and energy efficiency throughout the home!

In Wayne, NJ, a frustrated homeowner had grown increasingly concerned about their backyard patio, where years of concrete settlement and surface decay had turned a once-inviting outdoor space into a hazard. The uneven slabs not only detracted from the aesthetic of the yard but also created trip risks and drainage issues that threatened the foundation of nearby structures. Wanting a long-term solution without the cost and disruption of total replacement, the homeowner turned to Quality 1st for professional help.

After assessing the extent of the damage, our team of concrete repair specialists proposed a highly effective and minimally invasive fix. We used our PolyLevel Foam Injection System, a state-of-the-art method for lifting and stabilizing sunken concrete. This process involves injecting a high-density polyurethane foam beneath the slabs, which expands to gently raise them back to their original position. The result is a level surface that restores both safety and usability, without the mess or downtime of traditional concrete replacement.

But our team didn’t stop at just leveling the concrete. To address the underlying cause of the settlement, poor water drainage, we also installed our TrenchDrain System along the perimeter of the patio. This specially designed drainage system intercepts and redirects surface water away from the area, preventing erosion and water pooling that can lead to future settlement. With both the PolyLevel and TrenchDrain systems working together, the patio now has a solid foundation and superior water management.

The transformation was immediate and impactful. The homeowner regained a functional and attractive outdoor space, now safe for family gatherings and everyday use. More importantly, the improvements protected the patio from future damage, giving the homeowner long-term peace of mind. Thanks to Quality 1st’s fast response and innovative solutions, this Wayne, NJ backyard is once again a place to enjoy, not worry about!
