Before & After Photos

At this church in Perryville, MD the drainage system was having issues. We went in to trim the wall for us to install our EverLast Wall Restoration System. Our EverLast wall solution is an inorganic, mold-resistant product that replaces the bottom portion of the drywall. This will contain the problem and keep the basement looking great. 

After experiencing repeated basement dampness and signs of water seepage during rainy weather, a homeowner in Perryville, MD realized that their existing waterproofing setup was no longer effective. The moisture not only threatened their home’s structural integrity but also created concerns about potential mold growth and air quality. Wanting a long-term, professional solution, they turned to Quality 1st Basement Systems for expert guidance and support.

During our comprehensive inspection, we discovered that an aging sump pump and lack of interior drainage were allowing water to pool around the foundation and enter the basement. To address the issue, we installed our patented WaterGuard Interior Drainage System, which is uniquely designed to sit above the footing, avoiding the “mud zone” where traditional drains can clog. We paired this with our SuperSump Premier Sump Pump, a powerful, cast-iron unit equipped with an airtight lid and alarm system to ensure reliable performance and added protection.

This combination now provides the homeowner with a clean, dry, and permanently protected basement space.

To help keep the SuperSump Sump Pump System operating in top shape as a reliable wet basement solution, Quality 1st Basements recommends annual maintenance. At this Perryville, MD home, Service Technician Javier removed the airtight lid to access the cast iron 1/3 hp Zoeller for cleaning. Once all components were checked, cleaned, and/or replaced, the liner was cleaned and sanitized before the pump system was reassembled. The UltraSump Battery Backup Pump, serving as protection should the power go out, was also checked, cleaned, and tested. The operation and life of this homeowner's wet basement protection system has been enhanced through annual maintenance, continuing the ability of the system to pump up to 2,220 gallons of water per day at an 8 foot head on the primary pump alone!

Customer currently had a small window in her finished basement that she wanted to turn into an Egress so if there was ever an emergency while in the basement, there was a safe place to exit.

We came out and installed a 48x48 Slider Egress window with a Rockwell and Rockwell Elite cover. We also installed a WellDuct Drainage system to tie into her existing french drain. 

This customer had just purchased a home in Chestertown, MD and was in the market to get the crawlspace encapsulated.

We came out and installed our Cleanspace Vapor Barrier with Drainage Matting and a Smart Drain.
