Before & After Photos

When water begins to collect around a home’s foundation, it can quickly create persistent basement moisture issues, which was the challenge for a homeowner in Ocean, NJ. Increased dampness and recurring water intrusion raised concerns about mold growth and potential structural damage, prompting the homeowner to reach out to Quality 1st Basement Systems for a lasting solution. Protecting the basement and restoring a dry, healthy environment became the top priority.

After a thorough inspection, our team designed a customized waterproofing plan tailored to the home’s specific needs. The solution included our patented WaterGuard Drainage System to capture and redirect water away from the basement, a TripleSafe Sump Pump to provide reliable water removal even during heavy rain, and CleanSpace Wall Panels to create a durable, moisture-resistant barrier along the walls.

Together, these high-performance systems now eliminate further water intrusion, safeguard the basement from future damage, and provide the homeowner with a drier, healthier space and long-term peace of mind.

Ground water that moves through sump pumps can be dirty and laden with sand or silt as it passes through to be pumped out of the living area. This is one reason why it is important to have basement waterproofing systems serviced annually. Service technician Andrew helped this homeowner by cleaning the pump, sanitizing the liner, flood testing the system, and replacing with a fresh watertight lid. Now the SuperSump can continue effectively and efficiently pumping out up to 2,220 gallons of water per hour at an 8-foot head!

A customer in Neptune, New Jersey wanted their damp crawl space encapsulated and contacted Quality 1st for a solution. Our System Design Specialist inspected the crawl space and recommended that an encapsulation system be installed to eliminate the dampness and provide an area for storage for the homeowners.

Drainage Matting was installed on the crawl space floors to give the water entering the crawl space a channel underneath and directs the water to the sump pump. CleanSpace vapor barrier system was installed on the crawl space floors and walls to make sure water vapor and humidity do not pass through. This liner is durable and will not tear making it perfect for protecting the crawl space and a usable storage area. 

A homeowner in Neptune, New Jersey was having water come into their basement during heavy rains and contacted Quality 1st for a free estimate. Our System Design Specialist inspected the basement and noticed the signs of water and recommended that a new sump pump be installed. The homeowners current sump pump was old, outdated and not working. The TripleSafe sump pump was installed to make sure the basement stays dry. The TripleSafe has three levels of pumps built inside to make sure the water gets pumped out of the basement. In case of one pump failure, the next lower level pumps will kick in and keep the basement dry. The TripleSafe also has an UltraSump backup battery, set at the highest level will pump 11,500 gallons of water or more on a fully charged battery!

Jessica contacted Quality 1st Basements after noticing multiple signs of sagging floors. She had gaps between the floor and the interior wall from the floors sloping. Some of her doors and windows that use to operate succesfully were now sticking or wouldn't close. We sent System Design Specialist, Ken Peare out to inspect the crawl space and sit down with Jessica to discuss why her floors are sagging and the perfect solution to stable her crawl space beams!

Ken noticed signs that at one point water had gotten into her crawl space. The moisture from the water over time rotted the wood and deteriorated part of the floor joist. All of this caused her crawl space beams to sag creating uneven floors on the first level of her home. Ken recommended our SmartJack System, as the perfect solution to raise and stabilize the beams and the floor.
