Before & After Photos

A homeowner from Bel Air, MD was looking to safeguard their property from moisture and energy loss. They called Quality 1st Basements for a free quote and a full inspection. Our System Design Specialist suggested CleanSpace and SilverGlo for effective protection. By installing CleanSpace in the crawl space, they created a durable vapor barrier that prevented humidity and mold growth, improving indoor air quality. To further enhance energy efficiency, they added SilverGlo insulation, which helped regulate the home's temperature year-round and reduced energy bills. Together, these solutions provided comprehensive protection, ensuring the home remained dry, comfortable, and energy-efficient for years to come.

This Edgewood, MD homeowner had been struggling with persistent water seepage in their basement, which led to a damp, uncomfortable environment and raised concerns about potential long-term damage. The moisture was affecting the air quality and structure of the home, prompting the homeowner to seek a permanent solution. After contacting Quality 1st, our team assessed the situation and recommended a dynamic waterproofing system tailored to the home’s needs.

Finally, we equipped the basement with our IceGuard Discharge Line to maintain proper drainage during freezing conditions.
