Before & After Photos

This Summit, NJ, homeowner was deeply concerned about the increased dampness in their basement, which worsened every time there was heavy rainfall, leading to water pooling, musty odors, and potential damage to the foundation. Realizing that the existing drainage system couldn’t keep up with the water volume, they contacted Quality 1st for a professional solution.

Our team recommended the installation of our specially patented WaterGuard Drainage System to capture and direct water away from the basement walls, paired with our TripleSafe Sump Pump to ensure efficient water removal. Then our WaterGuard System was installed along the perimeter of the basement, while our TripleSafe Pump was placed in a sump pit to handle the high water volume.

With these advanced systems in place, the basement was transformed into a dry, pleasant, and healthy environment, free from moisture concerns and water damage!

A homeowner in Summit, NJ began to notice persistent moisture and musty odors in their basement, especially after heavy rainstorms. Over time, the damp conditions started to affect the usability of the space, raising serious concerns about potential mold growth and long-term structural damage. Realizing the issue stemmed from poor drainage around the foundation, the homeowner contacted our team for a thorough inspection and expert guidance.

After evaluating the basement layout and identifying key points of water intrusion, we designed a tailored waterproofing solution featuring our patented WaterGuard Drainage System. This system is uniquely engineered to sit above the footing of the foundation, preventing clogs that commonly affect traditional drainage methods. Our crew carefully installed the WaterGuard along the interior perimeter and connected it to a reliable sump pump system. The trench was sealed with fresh concrete, leaving a clean, finished look.

With the WaterGuard in place, the basement is now dry, protected, and better equipped to handle future weather conditions, giving the homeowner peace of mind and restoring the space’s full potential!
