Before & After Photos

Sump pumps can become dirty and laden with sand or silt as ground water passes through to be pumped out of the living area. It is important to have annual maintence performed on basement waterproofing systems to keep them operating effectively and efficiently. Service Technician Nelson visited Martinsville, NJ to check this customer's SuperSump Sump Pump System. After removing the airtight lid, the pump system was disassembled for checking and cleaning. The pumps and their components were cleaned: Nelson cleaned the impellers, the breathing holes, the pump stands, the liner, and the lids. He replaced the check valves and replaced batteries in the WaterWatch Alarm System and reassembled the system. All clean, Nelson tested the system and left the homeowner with a sump pump system operating at peak performance, ready to pump out up to 2,220 gallons of water per hour with the primary pump! 

In Sea Isle City, NJ, a damp and musty crawl space troubled the owners, causing allergies to flare and insulation to falter, evident in the 'before' photo. 'After' captures our CleanSpace system transformation: a dry, encapsulated space free from moisture and musty odors. A definitive end to their concerns, ensuring a healthier atmosphere and peace of mind.

A homeowner reached out to us at Quality 1st with concerns about their crawl space. They described issues of a persistent damp and musty smell throughout their home, as well as insulation that had seen better days:  sagging down and no longer effective. Knowing the importance of a clean and dry environment beneath their home, they needed a reliable solution, fast. After their initial call, we promptly arranged for one of our System Design Specialists to inspect the situation. We recommended an installment of our CleanSpace liner to encapsulate the crawl space, effectively sealing out moisture and preventing future growth of mold. Additionally, we suggested the installation of our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to control the humidity levels and keep the area dry and healthy. To further ensure the crawl space remained effectively insulated, we included SilverGlo insulation on the walls, reflecting heat back into the crawl space and improving the home's overall energy efficiency.

Installing an award-winning Sanidry Sedona dehumidifier to control basement or crawlspace moisture can help to reduce mold and mildew growth, improve air quality, reduce wood rot, and more!  The Sedona can become an added part of wet basement solutions and with regular annual maintenance, Quality 1st can ensure that it is functioning properly. At a home in Sea Isle City, service technician Jerry inspected the unit. He found that a simple adjustment to the condensate pump line would keep the unit in top operating shape, moving accumulated moisture out and away while most importantly, keeping the room humidity down.  

A resident in Oak Ridge, New Jersey noticed their basement walls were beginning to crack and bow inwards. They contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Laszlo Lenkey, provided an inspection and suggested they use a wall reinforcement system. Our foreman, Wilver Cardoza, installed the CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcement System which is made from a fiber-reinforced polymer. The straps are attached to the wall and secured with heavy-duty steel brackets. The straps will stabilize the wall and begin to pull it back towards its original position.
