Before & After Photos

There are various levels of waterproofing a home's basement, but the core component for water removal is the sump pump. If your sump pump cannot adequately manage the water entering your basement, its effectiveness is in question. Recently, a homeowner in Trenton, NJ sought our expertise to upgrade their waterproofing system in response to increasing water issues in their basement. We were ready to assist!

System Design Specialist Brandon provided the homeowner with a free quote, and our Foreman, Heriberto, was dispatched to install the new system. Our TripleSafe Sump Pump System was the focal point of the waterproofing repair installation. By updating and replacing the original sump pump, the basement now has three times the protection it previously had. Our TripleSafe Sump Pump includes three pumps to accommodate a significant volume of water. This simple replacement makes a substantial difference for basements experiencing water seepage.

A homeowner from Trenton, NJ was dealing with water seeping into their basement through a crack in the wall, causing dampness and concern for potential damage. To solve the problem, CleanSpace was installed as a moisture barrier. This solution keeps the basement dry, protected, and worry-free, giving the homeowner confidence that their home is safeguarded against future water issues.

Beneath the foundation of a Trenton, NJ home, rising moisture levels in the basement began to signal a serious underlying issue caused by inadequate drainage support. The persistent damp conditions raised concerns about potential structural deterioration and the risk of mold growth, prompting the homeowner to seek a permanent and reliable solution. To address the problem at its source, the homeowner turned to the experienced professionals at Quality 1st Basement Systems for a thorough evaluation.

After a detailed inspection, our team identified the exact points of water intrusion and designed a customized waterproofing plan tailored to the basement’s specific needs. The solution included the installation of our patented WaterGuard Drainage System to capture and redirect incoming water, paired with our high-performance TripleSafe Sump Pump to safely discharge it away from the home under all conditions.

Working together, these systems eliminated ongoing water seepage concerns and restored the basement to a dry, protected environment, providing the homeowner with long-term peace of mind and confidence in their home’s durability!

To keep a SuperSump Sump Pump System operating at its best as a reliable wet basement solution, Quality 1st recommends annual maintenance. The airtight lid is removed to access the cast iron 1/3 hp Zoeller for cleaning, changing check valves, and checking the float switch. The WaterWatch alarm batteries are replaced and the sump pump liner is cleaned and sanitized.  Annual maintenance performed in Trenton, the operation and life of this homeowner's SuperSump system was enhanced through the annual maintenance performed by Jerry, one of Quality 1st's Service Technicians.

This Trenton homeowner experienced basement flooding. Because this basement has a monolithic foundation, it is not recommended to jackhammer the perimeter of the basement to install the drain. Quality 1st Basement Systems recommended installing the DryTrak basement waterproofing system which channels the water from the floor joint to this SuperSump sump pump to keep this basement dry!
