Quality 1st Basement Systems Before & After Photos

In Baltimore, MD, a homeowner was dealing with persistent water leaks. Water would seep in during heavy rains, threatening the integrity of their home and increasing the risk of structural issues. Our Quality 1st Basement Systems team addressed the problem efficiently. By installing our WaterGuard perimeter drainage system, SuperSump pump, and CleanSpace liner, we transformed their basement into a dry, usable space. 

In Baltimore, MD, a homeowner grew increasingly alarmed by visible signs of foundation settlement in their basement. Cracks had begun forming along the walls, and the floors were noticeably uneven, clear indicators of structural issues developing beneath the home. Concerned about the long-term stability and safety of their property, the homeowner reached out to Quality 1st for a professional evaluation and a lasting solution.

After conducting a detailed inspection, our team recommended the installation of the SmartJack Support System, an adjustable, high-strength steel pier system specifically engineered to stabilize and lift sagging floors. Our crew strategically placed the SmartJacks beneath the compromised support beams and adjusted them to raise the floors back to their proper position. The system not only corrected the existing issues but also reinforced the foundation to prevent further settlement.

With the SmartJacks in place, the homeowner gained peace of mind knowing their basement was now secure, level, and protected for the future!

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. 

At this property in Baltimore, MD the homeowners didn't have a working sump system, so they contacted us for a solution. Our team dug out around the corner of the basement to remove the sump and installed our SuperSump Pump System with Zoeller cast iron pump. This is designed to pump out high volumes of water. This system will capture the groundwater coming in, which safely pumps out the water, eliminating the potential hazard of a flood.
