Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

After we placed our TripleSafe pump in the basement we installed our IceGuard discharge line system which allows water from the sump pump to escape incase the pipe freeze due to cold weather or even blocked for any reason. By having this system the owner won't have to worry about the basement flooding and will have peace about the water getting safely discharged outside and away from the home. Our sump pump system and IceGuard both work hand in hand to keeping the home dry even during the winter months. 

A homeowner in Baltimore, MD, began noticing persistent water intrusion in their basement, likely caused by heavy rainfall and inadequate drainage around the foundation. As the water continued to seep in, the homeowner became increasingly concerned about the potential damage to the structure and the growth of mold or mildew. Understanding the need for a reliable solution, the homeowner reached out to Quality 1st, seeking expert help to protect their home from further water damage and ensure a dry, healthy environment in their basement.

After identifying the source of the water intrusion, we recommended a dynamic waterproofing approach, which included the installation of our patented WaterGuard Drainage System, TripleSafe Sump Pump, and our IceGuard Discharge Line. The WaterGuard system was designed to efficiently collect and direct water away from the basement, while the TripleSafe Sump Pump ensured that any water that did enter was quickly pumped out. To protect against freezing temperatures, we added the IceGuard Discharge Line, ensuring the system would continue to function even in the coldest months.

With these advanced systems in place, the homeowner's basement is now effectively sealed from water intrusion, providing peace of mind and a dry, protected space for years to come!

In Baltimore, MD, a homeowner had been feeling increasingly anxious due to persistent water seepage in their basement, which had led to damp conditions and a musty odor that never seemed to go away. Despite their best efforts to control the issue, the water continued to seep through the foundation, causing the homeowner to worry about mold growth, potential damage to the foundation, and the overall health of their home. Realizing that they needed professional help to prevent further damage, they contacted Quality 1st for an expert assessment of their basement.

Our team recommended and installed a comprehensive solution, beginning with our patented WaterGuard Drainage System to capture and redirect water away from the basement. We added our SuperSump Premier Sump Pump to efficiently remove the water and protect the space from future flooding. To ensure the basement was both dry and mold-resistant, we installed EverLast Wall Panels that are moisture-proof and durable.

With these systems in place, the homeowner’s once-damp and uncomfortable basement was transformed into a dry, healthy, and inviting space that provided total peace of mind!

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.

This basement in Baltimore, MD, had water coming in through the doorway during heavy rainfall. Our team went out to dig up the entryway for us to install our TrenchDrain System that will capture surface water at the bottom of the stairwell. This system is easily removable to clear, and with this installation, the homeowners will no longer have water in the basement. Thanks to our crew, the homeowner's peace of mind was restored!
