Before & After Photos

SunHouse Windows are the perfect replacement to your old, rusty windows. They allow natural light into the basement without allowing water or moisture to come through. These SunHouse Windows create more curb appeal than a regular basement window as well! 

A Bernardsville, NJ homeowner was interested in waterproofing their basement, so they searched the Internet for possible solutions and found Quality 1st Basement Systems. Our System Design Specialist, Greg Louis, inspected the basement and told the homeowner that our WaterGuard French Drain System and Triple Safe Sump Pump will get the job done. Our foreman, Wilver Cardoza, and his team began installing the WaterGuard above the footing of the foundation out of the mud zone to prevent clogging or damage. The WaterGuard is then attached to the Sump sump to direct the water out of the basement keeping the area dry and healthy. 

This homeowner in Bernardsville, New Jersey noticed it was time for their sump pump to be cleaned. Sump pump care is important because a sump pump is supposed to protect you and your home from water intrusion. The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems to schedule their annual maintenance appointment. Our service team arrived at their home and began to clean and flood-test the system. They will disassemble the system and clean it, and then reassemble it carefully. Annual maintenance is essential because it also prolongs the lifespan of your system, and provides you with peace of mind! 

For homeowners, a wet basement can be more than just a nuisance, it can threaten the structural integrity of the home and create an ideal environment for mold and mildew. That was the reality for a homeowner in Bernardsville, NJ, who had grown increasingly concerned about ongoing water intrusion. Frustrated and worried about long-term damage, they turned to Quality 1st for a permanent solution to safeguard their property.

Our team conducted a full inspection and developed a customized waterproofing strategy tailored to the specific challenges of the basement. We installed our patented WaterGuard Drainage System to redirect water away from the foundation, paired with our TripleSafe Sump Pump System for reliable water removal, even in extreme conditions. To protect against moisture and brighten the space, we added CleanSpace Wall Panels, and for year-round functionality, our IceGuard Discharge Line was installed to prevent freezing-related backups.

These combined systems transformed the basement into a clean, dry, and healthy space, giving the homeowner long-term peace of mind!
