For this basement waterproofing project, we installed a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, Waterguard around the perimeter of the basement, a SuperSump Pump with Battery Backup, and a SaniDry Dehumidifier.
The CleanSpace Vapor barrier will direct any water coming in through the walls, down to the WaterGuard, which is then directed over to the SuperSump to be pumped out of the basement.
In Millington, MD a homeowner had been struggling with persistent water seepage in their basement, a problem exacerbated by heavy rainfall that left the space damp and vulnerable. Over time, the ongoing moisture intrusion raised serious concerns about potential structural decay and mold growth, prompting the homeowner to seek a permanent solution.
Quality 1st was called in to provide a long-term fix, and our crew responded by conducting a thorough inspection of the basement to assess the extent of the issue. Based on our findings, we developed a tailored waterproofing strategy that included the installation of our patented WaterGuard Drainage System to capture and redirect water away from the foundation, along with our powerful TripleSafe Sump Pump to ensure reliable water removal.
With these advanced systems in place, the homeowner can now enjoy a dry, healthy, and mold-free basement, knowing that further water intrusion is no longer a concern. The result was total peace of mind and a basement that is once again safe, inviting, and protected from further water damage.
Our team completed a basement waterproofing job in Elverson, PA today for a homeowner dealing with serious water issues. Every time it rained they noticed after a day or so small leaks of water were coming in from the foundation wall and up from the corner of the floor. Although the basement was unfinished, it was still a headache to clean up and then dry out to ensure mold never grew. The Quality 1st Basement Systems team installed a full perimeter waterproofing system to keep this large basement dry. Our perimeter drainage system, WaterGuard was installed above the footing of the foundation to accept and direct water directly to the sump pump system. The TripleSafe Sump Pump is our largest system that collects all the water and forces out and away from the home. The top lid ensures water and moisture stay inside the pit to protect the pump and prevent unwanted musty smells.
Cinderblock walls had "stair cracks", signs of mold, and water intrusion. To correct this issue, we installed Carbon Armour Strips that will stabilize the cracked walls, we did a mold remediation treatment, installed 2 SuperSump Pumps, Waterguard, and a CleanSpace vapor Barrier.
This customer reached out regarding the sump pump constantly running and not being able to keep up with the amount of water coming in. We removed the old pump and installed our TripleSafe sump pump, which adjusts to your pumping requirements. The TripleSafe is a three-pump system and has a battery backup to ensure that the basement never floods, even when the power goes out. It has an airtight removable lid that helps reduce the amount of noise than you average sump pump.
