Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

In Princeton, NJ, a homeowner reached out to us when they noticed persistent dampness taking over their basement. Water seeped through the walls, leaving the space unusable and musty, a common challenge faced by many homeowners. The solution? Installing our WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system combined with the CleanSpace wall system. The WaterGuard system was installed discreetly beneath the basement floor, out of sight. Its role was crucial: capturing water seepage before it spread, directing it effortlessly to the sump pump system. CleanSpace, another key component, provided significant support by ensuring the basement’s environment was protected from moisture and the inevitable issues that follow, like mold and mildew.

In Princeton, NJ, a homeowner became increasingly concerned as moisture levels in their basement began to rise due to inadequate drainage support. With the growing threat of mold growth and potential structural damage, they knew it was time to find a reliable, long-term solution. That’s when they reached out to Quality 1st for expert help.

Our team conducted a detailed inspection and quickly identified the root cause of the problem, poor water management around the foundation that allowed moisture to seep into the basement space.

To address the issue, we designed a customized waterproofing system tailored to the home’s specific needs. We installed our patented WaterGuard Drainage System, engineered to collect and direct water away from the foundation before it can enter the living space. To further protect the basement, we added CleanSpace Wall Panels, which act as a moisture barrier and help prevent vapor intrusion while giving the space a clean, finished look. This powerful combination now ensures the basement remains dry and protected year-round.

With this system in place, the homeowner can rest easy knowing their basement is safe from water damage and mold for years to come!

After this homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basements regarding water in their basement, our System Design Specialist, Tom Carrano, headed out to inspect the space. The old sump pump and french drain system had failed, so Tom proposed the installation of WaterGuard and our TripleSafe Sump Pump System. Following the initial appointment, our team went out to install the system. Jonathan and his team arrived on time, introduced themselves, did a full walk through with the homeowner to explain the installation process and what would be performed.
