Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Princeton Junction, New Jersey noticed their old sump pump was no longer working properly, causing water seeapge in their basement. They noticed water marks on the walls and signs of potential mold growth. They needed an experts opinion on the proper way to replace their current system with a pump system that would fully protect their entire basement area. The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and we recommended our full perimeter waterproofing system. We installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System and WaterGuard French Drain System which will keep the basement dry against water seepage. 

When this homeowner from Princeton Junction, NJ noticed horizontal cracks forming along their basement walls, they knew it was a sign of foundation wall movement and needed a reliable solution. To stop the cracking and reinforce their foundation, they chose to have CarbonArmor installed.

CarbonArmor uses strong, flexible carbon fiber straps, ten times stronger than steel in tension, to stabilize bowing or cracking foundation walls. These straps are bonded tightly to the wall surface, preventing further movement and restoring structural integrity without invasive excavation or major disruption.

Now, the homeowner has peace of mind knowing their foundation is secure, and their basement walls are reinforced with a long-lasting, maintenance-free solution designed to stand the test of time.

Quality 1st Basements recommends annual maintenance on sump pump systems to ensure they continue to run effectively and efficiently. Service Technician John provided top notch service, removing, cleaning, and checking all components of this West Windsor homeowner's TripleSafe Sump Pump System which includes a 1/3 hp cast-iron Zoeller pump, a secondary 1/2 hp pump, and the UltraSump Battery Backup Sump Pump. John also replaced the check valves, changed the batteries in the WaterWatch Alarm, and flood tested the system. With all parts reassembled and the watertight lid closed to keep debris from entering the pump liner, the system could continue operating at peak performance to keep this customer's basement free from water intrusion. A reliable wet basement solution!

An unfinished basement in Manville, New Jersey had bowing walls and a large crack in the foundation. The floor dropped 1/4 of an inch, and the homeowner needed Quality 1st Basement System's help. Inspector Kenny Tramutola determined that the best solution was to push piers to lift the basement floor and stabilize the walls. A foundation bracket was installed against the footing and piers were driven into the foundation bracket and the soil. It then lifted the structure using high-strength steel. Push piers are strong with high capacity loads and galvanized steel. Now this basement will not bow and the walls are stable and safe.

A homeowner in Manville, New Jersey contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems to get a quote on replacing their old sump pump system with our SuperSump Pump. Our SuperSump has a strong pump that sits in a protective liner to prevent damage or clogging. The airtight lid prevents water vapor from evaporating into the basement air and has a built in alarm system to alert them of any issues or concerns. Foreman, Juan and his team also installed a full perimeter WaterGuard french drain system to capture the water seepage and direct it straight to the sump pump to keep the basement dry. A backup Battery was also connected to help protect the basement even during a power outage.
