Before & After Photos

This customer wants to change a small basement window into an egress which provides more natural light as well as an emergency exit. We installed an In-Swing Egress window, Egress Rockwell Cascade and an Egress Rockwell Elite cover. For added protection, we also installed our Well Duct system with WaterGuard. In a rare case where water may come over the window ledge, the WellDuct will guide the water down the wall into our WaterGuard system and into the sump pump.

In this stone floor crawl space, the homeowners were noticing cold drafts coming in through the house and were in need of encapsulating it. Inside the crawl space, we placed our drainage matting under the CleanSpace liner that will transform the damp, dirty space into a clean, dry foundation. Then we installed CleanSpace Vapor Barrier all around the foundation walls and on the bottom of each pier, which will then create better conditioning air by resolving water issues.

In Essex, MD, a homeowner was dealing with severe moisture intrusion in their basement, caused by an outdated sump pump that could no longer keep up with the volume of water entering the space. As conditions grew damper, the homeowner became increasingly concerned about potential rot, mold growth, and long-term structural damage. Wanting a permanent solution, they contacted Quality 1st for expert help in protecting their home from ongoing water issues.

After a detailed inspection, our team developed a customized waterproofing plan to address the root of the problem. We installed our patented TripleSafe Sump Pump, a three-pump system designed to provide powerful, layered protection, featuring a primary pump, a secondary for heavy water flow, and a battery backup to ensure continued operation during power outages. To further protect the system in cold weather, we added our IceGuard Discharge Line, which allows water to escape even if the discharge line freezes.

With these systems in place, we eliminated the risk of future water intrusion and successfully transformed the basement into a dry, healthy, and worry-free space.

After battling constant moisture and a lingering musty smell in their basement, this homeowner in Essex, MD decided it was time for a reliable solution to protect their home. They chose to waterproof their basement with CleanSpace, a heavy-duty vapor barrier designed to seal out dampness and prevent mold growth. Installed along the walls and floor, CleanSpace transformed the basement into a bright, clean, and dry space. With improved air quality and a solid defense against moisture, the homeowner now enjoys a healthier home environment and the confidence that their basement is fully protected year-round.

This customer had two hairline fractures in the concrete foundation, that when it would rain, would allow water to intrude in the basement. This customer wanted to finish their basement further down the road, but knew before he jumped on such a big costly project, the water intrusion would need to be taken care of. 

We came out and injected the hairline cracks with our Polyurethane Injection which is a repair system that can stop water seepage immediately. We follow up the Polyurethane injection with our FlexiSpan repair system. Flexispan, as it says in the name, is flexible and moves with the wall if the foundation walls happen to move.  This eliminates re-cracking and seepage further down the road.
