When a homeowner in Wildwood, NJ, noticed the uncomfortably high humidity levels in their crawl space were wreaking havoc not just there but in their whole house, they decided it was time for a change. We prescribed a combination of our CleanSpace vapor barrier system to encapsulate the crawl space, preventing moisture from invading the area. Next, SilverGlo panels were installed on the walls to insulate the space and reflect heat back into the crawl space, making it more energy-efficient. Finally, to actively control the humidity, we set up a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier – a powerful, yet energy-efficient system designed specifically for areas like this.
We recently assisted this Bronx, NY, homeowner who was struggling with ongoing water seepage in their basement, which was the clear result of heavy rainfall. The homeowner started to worry that this issue could eventually lead to structural deterioration and mold-growth, prompting them to contact Quality 1st for a long-term waterproofing resolution.
Once our team conducted a thorough evaluation on the basement, they were able to determine the most effective solution, our TripleSafe Sump Pump System. The crew securely installed TripleSafe, a system specially designed with three pumps and a backup battery system. Our TripleSafe pumps are built for reliability, providing continuous protection and preventing flooding, water damage, and costly repairs. With its robust design and multi-level backup system, TripleSafe offers peace of mind, keeping your home safe and dry, no matter the conditions.
With this powerful system installed, the homeowner noticed an immediate improvement and looked forward to enjoying a moisture-free basement for many years to come!
Water was intruding on this homeowner's basement in Rising Sun, MD. The water was coming in where the floor met the wall. Our System Design Specialist, Jeff Yentzer, did a full inspection and recommended a solution that would work. The Quality 1st team started by installing WaterGuard under the floor slab since that is where the homeowner was experiencing the water intrusion. This would drain the water coming in from the walls and direct it towards the sump pump. The walls were then covered in our durable and mold-resistant CleanSpace walling to provide a barrier so moisture wouldn't filter into the air. The result is a clean, dry and protected basement.
This Montclair, NJ homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems after their basement flood. The bottom portion of their drywall was destroyed and had to be removed to prevent mold growth.

The homeowner now has peace of mind when it comes to rain that they no longer have that fear of a flooded basement again. Their basement and their home is now safe and protected thanks to Quality 1st Basement Systems.
After Hurricane Sandy, this Bergen County basement frequently flooded. The standing water in the basement caused damage to the flooring and walls. Quality 1st Basement Systems waterproofed the basement using WaterGuard basement waterproofing system. Once the basement was repaired and guaranteed to stay dry, Quality 1st Basement Systems refinished the basement walls with EverLast wall panels. EverLast wall panels are perfect as basement walls since they are made with all inorganic materials which means they will not be prone to mold or water damage. This Bergen County family now has a beautiful basement playroom and space!
