Quality 1st Basement Systems Before & After Photos

After several heavy rainfalls, this Havre De Grace, MD homeowner began to notice that water was slowly making its way into the basement, leaving behind damp walls and pooling along the floor. What started as a minor nuisance soon raised concerns about potential mold growth and long-term foundation damage.

Wanting a reliable and permanent fix, the homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems for an expert evaluation. During our inspection, our System Design Specialist identified poor drainage around the foundation as the primary cause of the seepage and developed a dynamic waterproofing plan tailored to the home’s specific needs.

To permanently resolve the issue, the crew installed our patented WaterGuard Drainage System, designed to capture and direct groundwater to our TripleSafe Sump Pump System for efficient removal. This triple-pump design ensures the basement remains protected even during heavy storms or power outages. To further safeguard the discharge line during freezing temperatures, we added our IceGuard Discharge Line, which prevents backups and allows water to safely exit the home year-round.

With these systems working together, the homeowner can now enjoy a clean, dry, and healthy basement, completely protected from further water intrusion!

A slight sag in the flooring above was all it took for a homeowner in Havre De Grace, MD to realize something was seriously wrong beneath their home. A closer inspection of the basement revealed weakened support beams beginning to show signs of settlement, an issue that, if left unaddressed, could lead to major structural damage. Wanting to protect their home before the situation worsened, the homeowner contacted Quality 1st for a dependable and lasting solution.

Upon arrival, our team conducted a thorough structural assessment to determine the extent of the damage and identify where additional support was needed most. Using these findings, we created a tailored repair plan centered around the installation of our heavy-duty SmartJack Support System. These adjustable steel supports were strategically positioned to lift, stabilize, and permanently reinforce the failing beams.

Once the SmartJacks were fully secured, the basement regained proper structural strength, giving the homeowner complete peace of mind knowing their home was safely supported for years to come!

During our visit, we conducted a detailed assessment of the crawl space to pinpoint the areas most affected by shifting and deterioration.

These adjustable steel supports were strategically placed to lift, stabilize, and permanently reinforce the compromised beams.

Floors above the crawlspace were beginning to sag in this new homeowner's home. We came out, and it was determined that the crawl space needed a little more work than she had inspected.

There was moisture in the crawl space, causing areas of mold, so first we treated the mold with a Mold X Treatment, then we installed a SilverGlo insulation, CleanSpace vapor barrier, drainage matting, waterguard, a Smart Sump with floor alarm and Sani Dry Sedona dehumidifier. The floors above the crawl space had failing joist supports and rotted sill plates, so we corrected the issue by replacing 11 sill plates, installing 5 Supplemental Steal Beams and 9 Smart Jacks.
