After noticing worsening moisture issues in their basement, a homeowner in Hampton, NJ began to see the space shift from slightly damp to consistently cold, wet, and musty. What was once a potential storage or living area had become uncomfortable and unusable, raising concerns about indoor air quality and long-term structural damage. Seeking a permanent solution, they contacted Quality 1st. During our inspection, we discovered that ineffective drainage was allowing water to seep in through the foundation walls and floor. With that in mind, we designed a customized waterproofing plan to address the issue at its source.
To fully protect the basement, our team installed our WaterGuard Drainage System along the interior perimeter, engineered to intercept wall and floor seepage without clogging in the soil. We added TrenchDrain at entry points to catch surface water before it could spread, and connected everything to our SuperSump Premier Sump Pump for reliable, high-volume discharge. To further prevent moisture from entering the space, we finished the job with CleanSpace Wall Panels, which act as both a vapor barrier and water redirection system. The result is a dry, healthy basement with long-term protection, giving the homeowner peace of mind and restoring the full functionality of their space.
