No one wants a dirty sump pump in their basement, so if your sump pump resembles the before photo, it may be time for annual maintenance! This homeowner in Beach Haven, New Jersey has been a loyal customer of Quality 1st Basement Systems for over five years! Each year, our service team provides sump pump maintenance to thoroughly clean and inspect the system. We emphasize the value of maintenance because it prolongs the lifespan of the system!
In Surf City, NJ, a homeowner became increasingly concerned with water seepage issues in their crawl space, noticing damp conditions and potential damage to the home. After reaching out to Quality 1st, our team conducted a thorough inspection and recommended a comprehensive waterproofing solution.
We installed our specially patented Drainage Matting to direct water towards the drainage system, SilverGlo Insulation Panels for enhanced energy efficiency, our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to prevent moisture infiltration, and our SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump to remove excess water.
As a result, the homeowner’s crawl space was restored to a dry, stable, and healthy condition, protecting the home from future water-related issues!
Whenever it rained, water would make its way into this dirt crawl space, creating a damp and unwelcoming area beneath the home. Our solution involved a three-pronged approach: first, we installed CleanSpace, a durable watertight barrier that encases the crawl space to prevent moisture from seeping in. Second, to ensure the area remained insulated and energy-efficient, we applied SilverGlo to the walls, reflecting heat back into the crawl space and keeping the cold out. Lastly, to combat humidity and further purify the air, we added a SaniDry Sedona, a powerful but compact dehumidifier designed specifically for spaces like these.
Take a look at our SuperSump Premier Pump System installation in Pine Beach, NJ. The Super Sump is capable of pumping out 2,500 gallons of water per hour in your basement. If you don't think that is enough protection, we recommend that you also install the UltraSump Battery Backup Sump Pump. On one charge alone the Ultrasump can pump out 11,500 gallons!
This Lanoka Harbor home sat within a major flood zone which changes the flood insurance requirements. SmartVents were required to be installed in this crawl space to prevent the home from flooding in the event of a major storm. Not only did the SmartVent save this homeowner on insurance, but it gave him peace of mind if a large storm were to hit the area again.
