Before & After Photos

When addressing the issue of water intrusion in a home's basement, we recognize that there are numerous pathways for water to penetrate through the foundation walls and floors. Concrete foundations can be porous and vulnerable to shifting and cracking, which increases the likelihood of water seeping through. In one instance, a home in Middletown, NJ, was experiencing water intrusion due to a crack in the basement floor. Concerned about the potential impact on the home's structural integrity, the homeowner reached out to Quality 1st for a trustworthy solution.

In addition to installing our WaterGuard Drains, our team also implemented ThermalDry Sub Floor Matting in the basement. The drains, positioned beneath the floor, create a channel for water intrusion to redirect away from the foundation and into the sump pump. Our ThermalDry Flooring is fully waterproof and mold-resistant, featuring pegs on the underside of the tiles to establish a thermal break between the floor and the concrete. This installation enhances the basement's aesthetics while providing an effective waterproofing system that remains discreet.

Moisture had steadily taken over the crawl space of this Middletown, NJ home, creating a musty, unhealthy environment that put the structure at risk. The homeowner, concerned about potential long-term damage such as mold, wood rot, and poor air quality, reached out to Quality 1st for a reliable, permanent solution.

To resolve the issue, we implemented a customized waterproofing plan tailored to the crawl space’s specific needs. We installed our patented WaterGuard Drainage System along the perimeter to collect and redirect incoming water efficiently. This was paired with our SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump, engineered to handle crawl space moisture with high performance and reliability. To ensure protection even during freezing temperatures, we added our IceGuard Discharge Line, which prevents water backups if the line freezes.
