Water Seepage Solution In Elkton, MD Basement
Water seepage in an Elkton, MD basement raised concerns about long-term damage and indoor air quality, prompting the homeowner to reach out to Quality 1st for a comprehensive solution.
Our inspection uncovered foundation wall seepage and a sump pump that was outdated and underperforming, factors that significantly increased the risk of mold growth and structural compromise. To address these concerns at the source, we installed our WaterGuard Drainage System along the interior perimeter, designed to intercept groundwater at the wall-floor joint and channel it directly to a sump system, preventing it from pooling or causing damage.
To ensure reliable water removal, we replaced the failing sump pump with our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which features three pumps for maximum protection, including a battery backup to keep the system running during power outages. We also connected an IceGuard Discharge Line to protect the system from freezing or clogging during colder months. To finish the project, CleanSpace Wall Panels were installed along the basement walls, providing a bright, clean look while directing wall moisture into the drainage system.
With these solutions in place, the basement is now dry, protected, and better equipped to handle water intrusion year-round!
