At this property in Wilmington, DE, the homeowner noticed water seepage in their unfinished basement. We removed the old sump to install our SuperSump Pump System, which is an effective system that is reliable and long-lasting. The pump system is connected to the sub-floor drain system, which captures any water coming into the home and safely carries away water that enters the home. Thanks to our Inspector and our foreman, the homeowner's peace of mind was restored! 

Customer had an unfinished basement that she was looking to fully finish in the near future. Her first step for the finishing project was to install an Egress window. The customer had several basement windows, but if there were ever an emergency and a fast escape through the basement was needed, there was nowhere to go. This is where we came in, we came out and installed a 48 x 48 Slider Egress window with a RockWell which has a stone look and  is UV Stable, rust and rot proof and can stand up to extreme temperatures.

A homeowner in Wilmington, DE was dealing with increased moisture in their basement caused by persistent water seepage during heavy rains. Concerned about potential long-term damage such as mold growth, structural weakening, and unhealthy air quality, they turned to Quality 1st for a reliable solution.

Our team performed a detailed inspection of the basement and crawl space, identifying areas of concern including perimeter seepage, leaking window wells, and sagging floors above the crawl space. Based on these findings, we developed a comprehensive, customized waterproofing and support plan tailored to the unique conditions of the home.

To resolve the water intrusion, we installed our patented WaterGuard Drainage System along the basement perimeter to effectively capture and redirect incoming water to our TripleSafe Sump Pump, which provides triple-layered protection against flooding, even during power outages. To prevent window well leaks, our WellDuct System was added to channel water directly into the drainage system. Additionally, our SmartJack System was installed to stabilize and lift the sagging floor joists above the crawl space, restoring structural integrity to the living space above.

Together, these systems eliminated the moisture problems and reinforced the home's foundation, leaving the basement dry, stable, and ready for long-term use with complete peace of mind.
