Before & After Photos

The homeowner was getting a massive amount of water in the basement and the bottom of the stairwell had no access to drain the water. We dug out a trench between the door and the stairwell to install our TrenchDrain Entry Drainage system, which is designed to capture the surface water. The heavy-duty plastic drain is reinforced, which prevents rust, moisture damage and averts water coming into the home, keeping your area dry.

Our company was called out to this property in Hampstead, MD to evaluate a wet basement and look into some basement window replacements. After arriving at this property, water intrusion and damage were clearly visible. Our solution to this water intrusion was to install our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, Waterguard, and a SuperSump. Together, these items make the ultimate waterproofing system. Any water that may seep down the basement wall will be directed down to the WaterGuard where it will then make its way over to the SuperSump to be pumped out and away from the home's foundation. 

In Manchester, MD, a homeowner was dealing with water seeping into their basement through an old window, which created damp conditions and raised concerns about potential damage, mold, and air quality. Seeking a permanent solution, they contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems, and our team quickly went to work.

First, we installed our WaterGuard Drainage System around the basement perimeter to capture and direct the water away from the foundation. Next, to address the specific issue with the window area, we added our WellDuct System to channel water from the window well into the drainage system, preventing further moisture buildup. Additionally, we installed our RockWell Egress Window to seal the entry point and protect against future water intrusion, improving both safety and ventilation.

Together, these systems restored the basement to a dry, stable, and healthy environment, giving the homeowner peace of mind knowing their basement is now fully protected!

Our company was referred to this customer by his Structural Engineer for the repair of his block foundation. There was a horizontal crack that ran about 20ft with an opening of 3/8 of an inch in the worst spot. Finding this foundation issue put a big halt to his finishing plans, but he knew if he wanted to proceed with his dream basement, the foundation would first need to be repaired.

To stabilize this foundation, we came out and installed our CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System. This system consisted of 13 CarbonArmor straps and 11 Armor Locks. This system will permanently stabilize your home's foundation and comes with a 25-year warranty against any manufacturer defects and against any further bowing. The CarboArmor system is also non-invasive, so now the customer can complete the finishing of his basement without any eyesores or obstacles.

This basement needed a Cleanspace Vapor Barrier, Waterguard, and SuperSump Pump to correct the water seepage, Flexispan to correct some cracks along the walls, and our Geo Lock Anchor System to correct the bowing in the wall.
