Before & After Photos

This homeowner from Keansburg, NJ was tired of dealing with a damp, musty crawl space that caused unpleasant odors and raised concerns about mold and structural damage. To protect their home and improve indoor air quality, they opted for a comprehensive waterproofing solution featuring the Turtl, Drainage Matting, and CleanSpace.

The team installed the Turtl, a crawl space door built to keep out elements and debris. To prevent water from pooling around the foundation, they added Drainage Matting, a specialized layer that directs water away from crawl space walls and toward a drainage system. Finally, CleanSpace was applied along the walls as a durable vapor barrier, sealing out moisture and blocking humidity from entering the space.

Thanks to this combination, the homeowner's crawl space is now dry, clean, and well-ventilated helping to protect their home’s foundation and creating a healthier environment throughout the house.

Quality 1st Basements sent one of our System Design Specialist out to inspect the structure of this crawl space after the homeowner noticed the floors on the first level of their home, above the crawl space was uneven and sagging. 

We discovered the crawl space beams were no longer enough support for the floor joist causing the floor to sag. We recommended our SmartJack Crawl Space Stabilizers to add additional support to the crawl space beams and floor joist for stabilization.  

Water infiltration can cause damage to a basement. Quality 1st Basements removed paneling and studs and installed WaterGuard below-floor perimeter drainage system to prevent future water seepage. The WaterGuard system installs cleanly with minimal disruption of the floor and is concreted over after installation. A WaterGuard port was installed along this wall for easy access to the drainage system for maintenance and cleaning.

Our service team provided annual maintenance for this homeowner in Bayonne, New Jersey where they cleaned and flood-tested the system. Caring for a sump pump system is important because it improves the performance of the system. No one wants to invest in a sump pump system that isn't working to its best ability!

This Bayonne, NJ homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems, because their basement was undergoing water issues. Our System Design Specialist, Steve V. inspected the basement and recommended our WaterGuard French Drain System and Triple Safe Sump Pump would be the perfect solution. The WaterGuard French Drain System collects water seeping from the basement walls and directs it to the Triple Safe Sump Pump. The products work together to keep the space dry and healthy.
