Before & After Photos

If your sump pump resembles the before photo, it may be time for annual maintenance! Your system runs constantly during rainy season. Over time, if the system isn't checked, it can fail causing flooding in your basement. Our Quality 1st Basement Systems service team provided sump pump maintenance yearly to ensure everything is working properly. Our team will thoroughly clean the system to ensure it has a prolonged lifespan in the future. 

What began as occasional dampness quickly escalated into a significant concern for a homeowner in New Milford, NJ, as their basement transformed into a cold, wet, and unusable space. The persistent moisture was not only impacting the comfort of the home but also threatening its structural integrity and air quality. Wanting a reliable, long-term solution, the homeowner contacted Quality 1st for expert assistance. After a comprehensive evaluation, our team identified the underlying drainage deficiencies and designed a tailored waterproofing solution to address the problem at its source.

To stop water intrusion and manage future moisture, we installed our WaterGuard Drainage System, which is positioned along the interior perimeter to collect groundwater before it reaches the basement floor. That water is funneled directly into our SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System, a powerful, high-performance unit that ensures efficient water removal, even during heavy rainfall. To complete the project, we installed CleanSpace Wall Panels, providing a vapor barrier that helps prevent wall seepage while giving the space a clean, bright look.

This multi-system approach fully restored the basement, transforming it into a dry, healthy, and functional space, and giving the homeowner lasting peace of mind!

This Union City homeowner had water in the basement causing damage to the flooring and walls. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed WaterGuard basement waterproofing systems. To refinish the basement, EverLast wall panels were installed on the bottom half of the walls, and MillCreek Waterproof Flooring was used on the flooring. Both of these products are completely waterproof and have left this basement dry and beautiful!

Crawl space windows allow unwanted air to enter the crawl space. CleanSpace vent covers seal off the crawl space from outside air to remedy humidity issues in the crawl space.

A homeowner in Union City, New Jersey was having foundation problems and contacted Quality 1st for a solution. Our System Design Specialist inspected the foundation and realized the foundation was in need of support. The floors above the foundation were sagging and were being held up by wooden posts.

SmartJacks were installed to support the sagging foundation and provides a permanent solution. The SmartJack system is installed by attaching steel support beams to the floor joists and a sturdy base at the floor. The SmartJacks can be adjusted at any time if the home requires it. This home is supported and the homeowners do not have to worry about their foundation being unsupported.
