Before & After Photos

The completed basement of this South River, NJ home was experiencing damage due to heavy rainfall and the absence of a waterproofing system. The homeowner recognized the potential risks associated with not addressing this issue, prompting them to reach out to Quality 1st for a solution. A key factor contributing to the problem was water intrusion through the foundation walls. Our team recommended a wall-finishing product designed to waterproof and insulate the area. The EverLast Wall Restoration System incorporates a layer of insulation along with a vapor barrier, ensuring the basement remains dry and comfortable. The finished side of the EverLast system provides a clean and neutral appearance to the basement walls while effectively safeguarding the overall health and safety of the space. Our team's installation of EverLast in this home successfully transformed the basement into a dry, healthy, and comfortable environment for the homeowners to enjoy.

Worries arose for a homeowner in South River, NJ, after persistent moisture began accumulating in the basement due to inadequate drainage support around the foundation. Understanding the risks that prolonged dampness can pose to both structural integrity and indoor air quality, the homeowner contacted Quality 1st for a thorough inspection and a long-term waterproofing solution. Our team conducted a detailed evaluation of the basement, pinpointing the precise source of the moisture intrusion and developing a plan tailored to the home’s specific conditions.

Based on our findings, we recommended and installed our patented WaterGuard Drainage System to effectively manage and redirect water away from the basement. This advanced system was designed to prevent future moisture infiltration while maintaining a clean, dry environment below grade.

With the WaterGuard system in place, the home is now protected against ongoing water-related concerns, allowing the homeowner to enjoy lasting peace of mind and confidence in the durability of their basement!

Quality 1st Team Basement Systems installed ThermalDry floor matting in this Mountainside finished basement.

ThermalDry has a moisture barrier and keeps basements dry and healthy. Now, this basement looks great and provides a healthy environment.

To prevent flooding and moisture, Quality 1st Basement Systems installed a TripleSafe sump pump in this Mountainside, NJ basement.
