Before & After Photos

In Ewing, NJ, a homeowner was facing a persistent challenge: a damp, occasionally flooded basement. This issue was starting to damage stored belongings and create an unsettling living environment. After assessing the situation, it was determined that excess water seepage was a result of poor foundation drainage. To rid the home of this headache, we recommended implementing our trusted waterproofing products: WaterGuard, the TripleSafe Sump Pump, and BrightWall panels. We installed the WaterGuard perimeter drainage system discreetly beneath the floor’s surface. This hidden shield serves effectively to steer any water from foundation wall seepage into the pathway towards the sump pump. The TripleSafe sump pump then confidently took on the task of promptly expelling this water, regardless of volume, due to its robust three-part design. We also lined the basement walls with BrightWall panels, not only enhancing the room’s brightness but also directing all wall-based moisture into the drainage system.

A resident in Clifton, New Jersey was experiencing water coming into the basement through the walls. The water caused damage to the drywall where it needed to be removed to prevent mold growth.  Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Javier Hoyos Romero, suggested they replace the bottom half of the water-damaged walls. Our foreman, Wilver Cardoza, installed the EverLast Wall Restoration System. These walls are mold proof and waterproof and will not be ruined by a plumbing leak or high humidity. 

This homeowner in Clifton, New Jersey knew it was time to schedule their annual maintenance appointment with Quality 1st Basement Systems. Each year, our service team will thoroughly clean and inspect the sump pump to ensure it's operating at its best performance. During these appointments, our service team will disassemble the sump pump, clean it with a hose and vacuum, and then reassemble the sump pump. We emphasize the significance of annual maintenance because it prolongs the lifespan of the system! 

We recently assisted a homeowner in Clifton, NJ, who was struggling with persistent water seepage in their basement during periods of heavy rainfall. The homeowner was determined to protect their home from potential rot and mold-growth, prompting them to reach out to our team at Quality 1st for a long-term solution.

Once our team reached the home, they began installing our specially patented WaterGuard French Drainage System to redirect water away from the foundation, our mold-resistant CleanSpace Wall Panels to protect the space from further decay, and our high-powered SuperSump Premier Sump Pump to manage excess levels of water. 

With these powerful systems installed, this basement will remain dry and healthy for many years ahead, allowing this homeowner to enjoy total peace of mind!

Homeowners who have a TripleSafe sump pump installed in their basement to mitigate water intrusion know that keeping the system cleaned and well-maintained leads to a better operating and more reliable pump system. In this Clifton, NJ home, Quality 1st's service technician Andrew opened the watertight liner lid to access the pumps.  Both the cast iron 1/3 hp and 1/2 hp Zoeller pumps were removed from the liner for cleaning before being reinstalled and tested. Annual maintenance provides peace of mind for one of the top wet basement solutions!
