Before & After Photos

In Belmar, NJ, a homeowner faced concerns with a damp basement under their century-old house. Their home was experiencing increasingly frequent flooding during heavy rains. Tired of dealing with temporary fixes, they reached out to us for a more permanent solution. Our reliable team installed our WaterGuard system, slipping the drainage channel below the basement floor to capture incoming water from the foundation walls. WaterGuard acts as a guarding line, redirecting wall and floor seepage away to ensure a dry basement. Next, we placed the robust TripleSafe sump pump. Designed with three sump pumps in one system, the TripleSafe provided the homeowner with three layers of protection, which means uninterrupted operation even if one of the pumps failed or despite a power outage. To maximize the home's protection, our crew used CleanSpace, the encapsulation system shield, which not only seals off potential moisture entry but also eliminates musty odors and minimizes energy costs. 

After several months of heavy rain, a homeowner in Belmar, NJ began noticing unsettling signs of water intrusion in their basement. What initially appeared as minor damp spots quickly evolved into widespread seepage along the walls and floor, sparking concerns about mold, indoor air quality, and long-term structural damage. Realizing the urgency of the situation, the homeowner contacted Quality 1st in search of a reliable and permanent solution. Our team conducted a comprehensive on-site evaluation and recommended a customized waterproofing strategy tailored to the unique layout and water issues of the home.

To address the problem at its source, we installed our patented WaterGuard Drainage System along the basement’s interior perimeter, effectively capturing water before it could reach the living space. At exterior entry points vulnerable to surface water, we added a TrenchDrain System for additional protection. To ensure continuous water evacuation under any condition, we incorporated our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, featuring triple-layered pump technology and a battery backup. Finally, to control humidity and prevent mold growth, we installed the energy-efficient SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier.

With these systems in place, the basement was completely transformed into a dry, healthy, and functional space, restoring the homeowner’s peace of mind and enhancing the value and safety of their property!

System Design Specialist, Javier recommended a full sump pump replacement to keep this basement dry and healthy. Mario and his team installed the TripleSafe Sump Pump with a back up battery system to continue to keep the basement dry even if the power goes out. 

A West Nyack, NY homeowner noticed their concrete pool deck was sinking and settling. They contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems for a solution. Concrete Specialist, Jonathan, inspected the pool deck and knew the Polylevel Injection would be able to lift and level the pool deck. Foreman, JD, and his crew drilled small penny size holes into each sinking section of concrete. They injected PolyLevel underneath to remove the voids causing the settlement. After lifting and leveling each slab, they sealed any cracks and joints to ensure no water would get underneath and cause future settlement by washing away the soil. 

Heavy water was flooding this West Nyack, NY basement, so the homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems to provide them with a permanent solution. System Design Specialist, Mike F. recommended installing a full perimeter waterproofing system of  WaterGuard French Drain and our TripleSafe Sump Pump System. Our team was able to restore this homeowners peace of mind by installing a system they can trust to protect their basement from water damage. Take a look at what our WaterGuard System looks like after being installed above the footing of the foundation. If the homeowner decides to finish this space now that its waterproofed, flooring can easily go down on top of the french drain.
