In Brooklyn, NY, a homeowner was dealing with persistent water seepage in their basement, which was beginning to cause damage to the floors and led to further concerns about mold growth.
After contacting Quality 1st, our team recommended the installation of our specially patented SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System, designed to efficiently remove water from the basement and prevent flooding. This heavy-duty system features a powerful Zoeller pump and a built-in high-water alarm, ensuring that any excess water is quickly drained away, even during periods of heavy rainfall.
With the SuperSump in place, the homeowner’s basement was fully protected from water intrusion, restoring it to a dry, healthy condition. As a result, the homeowner gained peace of mind knowing their basement was safe from water damage, improving both the air quality and overall value of their home!

In the heart of Brooklyn, NY, a homeowner faced the all-too-common issue of a damp, unfinished cellar. With thorough analysis, it became clear that the basement required a robust waterproofing solution to ensure it remained dry, no matter the weather outside. To combat the persistent water issue, we installed the WaterGuard drainage system. Concealed beneath the basement floor, this system is adept at capturing water seepage from foundation walls and channeling it to our TripleSafe Sump Pump. This powerful configuration, featuring a triple-protection setup with a battery backup, provides steadfast assurance, even during power outages when flooding risks spike the most.
This Brooklyn, NY crawl space had a damp dirt floor but no active leaks. We installed CleanSpace and SilverGlo to seal out moisture and improve the home’s comfort.
The TripleSafe Sump Pump System is the ultimate in wet basement solutions, with three levels of protection from ground water intrusion. It includes a 1/3 hp cast-iron Zoeller pump, a secondary 1/2 hp pump, and the UltraSump Battery Backup pump. During annual maintenance to ensure the system is working effectively and efficiently to continue pumping up to 2,220 gallons of water per hour with the first pump and an additional 3,900 gallons of water per hour with the secondary pump, the pumps are disassembled, components are checked, cleaned, and replaced as needed. Should a power outage occur, the UltraSump Battery Backup kicks in; and therefore that pump is also checked and cleaned to ensure peak performance. The liner is cleaned and sanitized before the pumps are reassembled. All in all, this system in Brooklyn, NY was left in tip-top shape by Service Technician Jordan for ultimate protection against a wet basement.
A damp, musty dirt crawl space in Brooklyn was creating uncomfortable conditions in the home above. We encapsulated the area with CleanSpace and installed a SaniDry Sedona to control humidity and odors. The crawl space is now clean, dry, and fully protected.
