Before & After Photos

In Towson, MD, a homeowner grew concerned after noticing consistent water intrusion in their basement, particularly through visible cracks in the foundation walls. Recognizing the risks of ongoing moisture, such as mold growth, structural damage, and the loss of usable space, they reached out to Quality 1st for a professional evaluation. Our team conducted a thorough inspection and identified the need for a comprehensive waterproofing solution tailored to the unique conditions of the home.

To effectively address the issue, we installed our patented WaterGuard Drainage System along the interior perimeter to capture water at its point of entry and redirect it to our SuperSump Premier Sump Pump, which efficiently removes the collected water from the basement. In addition, we applied our FlexiSpan Wall Crack Repair System to permanently seal the foundation cracks and prevent future leaks.

These three systems worked together to eliminate moisture-related problems and restore the basement to a dry, stable, and protected environment, giving the homeowner peace of mind and the confidence to consider future basement finishing projects.

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. 

When this homeowner from Towson, MD noticed their window well was constantly filling with rainwater, they realized it was causing damage to both their basement and the foundation of her home. After researching solutions, they chose to install the EverLast Access Well.

Designed to provide easy access while keeping the basement dry, the EverLast Access Well features a durable, rust-proof design that prevents water from accumulating around their basement window. The system includes a protective cover that keeps debris out while allowing proper drainage, ensuring that water flows away from the foundation. Since the installation, the homeowner's basement has remained dry, and they no longer have to worry about water intrusion or the potential for mold growth. The EverLast Access Well gave them the perfect blend of functionality, protection, and peace of mind.

A homeowner in Severna Park, MD reached out to us regarding repairs for their damp crawl space, which was experiencing moisture and humidity issues. This condition can arise from external elements infiltrating the crawl space, leading to problems such as wood rot, elevated energy costs, and potential mold growth. To address this concern proactively, we dispatched our System Design Specialist to conduct an inspection. He recommended the installation of an encapsulation system to effectively isolate the crawl space from the external environment. Our foreman, Bernie, successfully installed the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System, ensuring the crawl space remains dry and healthy. Since the installation, the homeowner has reported no further issues with their crawl space.

All the walls had to be removed in this basement because they had mold and water damage.  We made repairs to the foundation wall using carbon fiber straps and installed a waterproofing system including the WaterGuard drainage system and a TripleSafe sump pump.  Next we replaced the old drywall with waterproof wall panels which are covered by a 50-year warranty against water and mold damage.  We also installed our ThermalDry Flooring system designed specifically for cold basement floors. The basement was transformed and the homeowners were happy!
