Before & After Photos

In Bloomsbury, NJ, a homeowner faced persistent issues with a damp basement, leading them to reach out to us at Quality 1st for a reliable solution. Moisture had been seeping into their basement, causing musty odors and threatening the use of the space for storage and activities. The recommended solution comprised the installation of our WaterGuard drainage system, complemented by the TripleSafe sump pump, and CleanSpace liner. Our adept production team began by carefully installing the WaterGuard around the perimeter, a discreet system that catches water seeping through walls and underneath the floor. This system directs unwanted water to the newly installed TripleSafe sump pump, engineered for toughness even in adverse conditions, which then channels water safely away from the home. Additionally, CleanSpace was applied along the walls, sealing and transforming the basement environment by keeping humidity at bay.

A homeowner in Bloomsbury, NJ reached out to us at Quality 1st as their basement was causing some concern. Dampness had heavily invaded their space, causing not only a smell but the increased potential for long-term damage. We decided on installing the WaterGuard system, paired efficiently with our TripleSafe Sump Pump. Both needed to be effectively fixed in to set up a robust perimeter drainage system. These products are designed to seamlessly work together, drawing away any floating water and moisture before they turn into bigger issues. To elevate protection and make this space completely healthy, we added the CleanSpace liner along the basement walls. This further helps in sealing off any remnants of moisture, thoroughly changing the basement’s environment.

Basement moisture issues often develop gradually, but their impact can be significant if left unaddressed, as a homeowner in Monroeville, NJ discovered when their basement became increasingly damp and uncomfortable.

Our System Design Specialist, Ian, performed an extensive inspection to determine the source and flow of water entering the basement. Using this information, he designed a customized waterproofing system tailored to the home’s specific conditions. The solution included installing our patented WaterGuard Drainage System and TrenchDrain System to effectively collect and redirect water away from the foundation, a TripleSafe Sump Pump to provide dependable water removal even during heavy rainfall or power outages, CleanSpace Wall Panels to create a durable moisture barrier along the basement walls, and an IceGuard Discharge Line to prevent freezing-related backups.

Working together, these systems restored the basement to a dry, healthier environment and provided the homeowner with long-term protection and peace of mind!

Quality 1st Service Technician Jerry provided this homeowner with top notch annual maintenance on the TripleSafe Sump Pump system. As the liner can accumulate dirt and sediment as ground water passes through the system, Jerry cleaned the primary 1/2 hp cast-iron Zoeller pump as well as the secondary 1/2 hp pump and the UltraSump Battery Backup Sump Pump. Check valves were replaced, weep holes cleared, pump stands and the pump liner were cleaned and sanitized, and the WaterWatch Alarm batteries were replaced. All parts were reassembled, replaced in the liner, and closed with the watertight lid to keep debris from entering. The system could continue pumping efficiently as an effective wet basement solution!
