Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Waterproofing in Baltimore, MD

After dealing with a damp, musty basement and occasional flooding during heavy rains, a homeowner in Baltimore, MD, decided it was time for a permanent solution. They partnered with Quality 1st Basements and opted for a full-system approach featuring TrenchDrain, CleanSpace, WaterGuard, TripleSafe, and LawnScape. The TrenchDrain was installed at the bottom of her basement steps to capture surface water before it entered the home. Inside, WaterGuard interior drainage lines were placed along the perimeter to channel water discreetly to the TripleSafe Sump Pump System, ensuring maximum protection even during power outages. To manage humidity and prevent mold, CleanSpace vapor barrier was applied to the walls, sealing out moisture from the foundation. Finally, the LawnScape Outlet was installed to discreetly discharge water away from the home, preserving the yard's appearance. Now, the homeowner's basement is dry, clean, and ready for finishing, no more worrying about storms or water damage.

TrenchDrain

TrenchDrain is a specialized drainage system designed to capture surface water at entry points like basement stairs before it can seep inside. With a durable grated top and a low-profile design, it sits flush with the floor and channels water directly into the interior drainage system, preventing flooding at vulnerable thresholds. It's the first line of defense in a complete basement waterproofing system.

CleanSpace

CleanSpace is a durable, reinforced vapor barrier designed to seal basement or crawl space walls and floors from moisture, mold, and musty odors. Its bright white finish not only improves the look of the space but also helps reflect light, making the area feel cleaner and brighter. By isolating the home from damp soil and groundwater, CleanSpace creates a healthier, drier environment.

WaterGuard and TripleSafe

WaterGuard is a patented interior drainage system designed to capture water leaking through basement walls and floors, directing it safely away before it can cause damage. Installed just below the floor at the foundation's edge, it remains out of sight while effectively keeping the basement dry. Paired with WaterGuard, the TripleSafe Sump Pump System offers triple the protection with three powerful pumps, including a battery backup. This ensures continuous operation even during heavy rains or power outages, giving homeowners peace of mind with 24/7 protection against basement flooding.

LawnScape

LawnScape is a discreet, clog-resistant outlet that releases water from your sump pump system away from your home, without disturbing your yard's appearance. Installed flush with the ground, it blends seamlessly into your landscaping while preventing backups and erosion. With LawnScape, water is safely carried away, keeping your foundation dry and your lawn looking great.
