Before & After Photos

In this Idlewylde, MD home, water was coming in through the foundation walls. Our inspector, Jeff Yentzer, went to the property to find a solution. Jeff suggested installing a French Drain System to keep the area dry. Our crewman Bernie W. dug a trench along the perimeter of the leaky wall to install our WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system. This system will prevent any leakage coming in and will direct the water to the sump pump system.

In Baltimore, MD, a homeowner had been feeling increasingly anxious due to persistent water seepage in their basement, which had led to damp conditions and a musty odor that never seemed to go away. Despite their best efforts to control the issue, the water continued to seep through the foundation, causing the homeowner to worry about mold growth, potential damage to the foundation, and the overall health of their home. Realizing that they needed professional help to prevent further damage, they contacted Quality 1st for an expert assessment of their basement.

Our team recommended and installed a comprehensive solution, beginning with our patented WaterGuard Drainage System to capture and redirect water away from the basement. We added our SuperSump Premier Sump Pump to efficiently remove the water and protect the space from future flooding. To ensure the basement was both dry and mold-resistant, we installed EverLast Wall Panels that are moisture-proof and durable.

With these systems in place, the homeowner’s once-damp and uncomfortable basement was transformed into a dry, healthy, and inviting space that provided total peace of mind!

This homeowner reached out regarding an unfinished basement that was getting water through both the floor and walls. We were able to install our WaterGuard, which is a non-clogging sub-floor drainage system that will keep the basement dry. The rugged plastic is designed to catch any seepage through walls or floor leaks along the perimeter, which will never rust or deteriorate over time. Once water is captured into the sub-floor drainage system, it will flow down to our SuperSump pump system, which will then pump out and away from the home. 

These are pictures of a typical city row home basement entry. The stairwells often flood because the drain is not big enough or not connected properly for an outlet. The water can now be easily managed by installing proper drainage and a large TrenchDrain.

In this basement entry way, we removed the old sump pump and installed our TripleSafe pump system with twin liner. Once the TripleSafe was securely placed, we installed our TrenchDrain system, which is an elongated drain that is used to remove surface water from the area. The below level grade drain channel is connected to the sump pump system that will pump the water out safely.
