Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Gwynn Oak, MD, was experiencing water seepage issues in their basement. The moisture was impacting the basement walls and creating a risk for mold, mildew, and rot. They contacted Quality 1st Basements, who conducted a comprehensive inspection. The System Design Specialist recommended installing CleanSpace. The CleanSpace Vapor Barrier is a robust moisture liner designed to prevent water vapor and moisture from permeating the basement air. Additionally, it helps manage existing mold and rot. The homeowner can now feel assured that their family has access to safe, breathable air and that their basement is protected from further deterioration.

In Cockeysville, MD, a homeowner was dealing with persistent water seepage around their basement window, which created a damp, uncomfortable, and uninviting space. Concerned about the potential for long-term damage and mold growth, they reached out to Quality 1st Basement Systems for a lasting solution. After a thorough inspection, our team identified the source of the problem and developed a customized waterproofing plan designed to address the specific issues affecting the home.

Our solution included the installation of our patented WaterGuard Drainage System to capture water at the foundation's perimeter, CleanSpace Wall Panels to seal out moisture and improve the basement’s appearance, and our WellDuct System to redirect water from the window well into the drainage system. To further enhance safety and natural lighting, we installed our RockWell Egress Window. This dynamic approach eliminated further moisture-related concerns and transformed the basement into a dry, healthy, and stable environment the homeowner could finally enjoy with complete confidence!

An Odenton, MD homeowner reached out to Quality 1st Basement Systems after dealing with persistent water seepage caused by an outdated sump pump system. Wanting a permanent fix, they trusted our team to assess the issue and deliver a reliable solution.

Upon inspection, our experts identified the root cause of the moisture problem and designed a customized waterproofing plan. We installed our patented WaterGuard Drainage System to capture and redirect water away from the foundation, paired with our powerful TripleSafe Sump Pump System for triple-layered protection—including a battery backup for peace of mind during potential power outages.

This dynamic approach effectively stopped the water intrusion, leaving the basement dry, healthy, and fully protected for years to come!

This homeowner was experiencing water intrusion in their basement in Towson, MD. The water was coming up through the bottom of the doorframe. The moisture was creating potential mold on the wall. Our System Design Specialist did a full inspection and suggested TrenchDrain to drain the water at the doorway and direct it to the sump pump. The homeowner could now relax knowing that their basement was protected from further water damage and mold growth. 

This Baltimore County resident asked us to come out to another property of his for basement waterproofing. Leaving that property behind and purchasing another in the same county, it unfortunately had the same issue, when it would rain, water would enter in through the block foundation walls. Liking the waterproofing system that was installed at his other property, he reached back out to us for help.

We fully waterproofed this basement with the help of our CleanSpace vapor barrier, Waterguard, SuperSump Pump and IceGuard. Our CleanSpace is placed from floor to ceiling on the foundation walls and it is tied directly into the Waterguard perimeter drain. Any water that may think it is getting into this basement to cause issues, will be met by this barrier and it will be directed straight down to the Waterguard. Once water enters the Waterguard it will then travel over to the SuperSump Pump. SuperSump then takes that water and pumps it outside via the discharge line. As added protection for the basement, we installed our IceGuard on the exterior of the foundation, where the discharge line is. Thanks to the design of our Iceguard, it will stop any water from backing into the basement if and when the discharge line freezes in those cold winter months.
