Before & After Photos

At this property in Baltimore, MD the homeowners didn't have a working sump system, so they contacted us for a solution. Our team dug out around the corner of the basement to remove the sump and installed our SuperSump Pump System with Zoeller cast iron pump. This is designed to pump out high volumes of water. This system will capture the groundwater coming in, which safely pumps out the water, eliminating the potential hazard of a flood.

This homeowner in Baltimore, MD reached out to us regarding water intrusion in their basement during heavy rainfall. This has been an ongoing issue to the point of mold growth occurring in the area. We sent a team to dig out a trench along the foundation wall to install our WaterGuard French Drain System. Then we installed our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier on the same wall. This waterproofing system will keep the basement dry with no moisture, preventing mold growth, and the drain will direct the water from the wall down into the sump pump system. 

At this newly purchased home, the owners were seeing that during rainstorms, water would enter the basement under the wall where the floor meets. We replaced the old sump pump with our TripleSafe pump system, which has a twin liner, and the UltraSump battery back-up system with a control box alarm. These three pump systems calibrate automatically to meet the requirements of how much water is pumping out, and the battery backup will protect your home from flooding during power outages. 

This long-time Baltimore, MD homeowner has trusted Quality 1st for years to protect their basement from water damage and maintain a healthy home environment.

As part of their ongoing commitment to preventative care, they scheduled their annual maintenance service, during which our Service Technician performed a full inspection of their SuperSump Premier Sump Pump. The visit included a thorough cleaning of the sump pit to remove debris and sediment, a detailed check of all system components, and a performance test to ensure the pump activated and discharged water properly.

Our Service Technician also confirmed that the discharge line was free of blockages, ensuring the system could operate efficiently during heavy rainfall or sudden storms. This type of routine maintenance is essential for preventing unexpected failures and extending the lifespan of the sump pump system.

Thanks to these proactive measures, the homeowner continues to enjoy reliable, year-round protection and the peace of mind that their basement is prepared for whatever the weather brings!

In Baltimore, MD, a homeowner began noticing early warning signs of water damage in their basement, musty odors, damp walls, and visible moisture buildup. As conditions worsened, so did concerns about mold growth, wood rot, and long-term structural damage. Realizing the issue required professional attention, they reached out to Quality 1st Basement Systems for help.

Our team conducted a thorough inspection and designed a customized waterproofing solution tailored to the home’s specific needs.

To permanently resolve the water intrusion, we installed our patented WaterGuard Drainage System along the basement perimeter, which captures groundwater before it reaches the floor surface. A TrenchDrain System was added near entry points to intercept surface water, directing it into the drainage channel. The system was connected to a SuperSump Premier Sump Pump, ensuring efficient water removal, while an IceGuard Discharge Line was included to prevent backups during freezing temperatures. To manage wall moisture and improve the basement’s appearance, we installed CleanSpace Wall Panels, which also act as a vapor barrier.

With these advanced systems working together, the basement is now fully protected from moisture, and the homeowner can enjoy a clean, dry, and worry-free space once again!
