Before & After Photos

An East Orange, NJ homeowner was interested in waterproofing their basement, so they contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems for an estimate. We installed the WaterGuard French Drain, TripleSafe Sump Pump, and SaniDry XP as the best solution. WaterGuard collects water seepage directly from the foundation and floor, directing straight to the sump pump system. This keeps the area completely dry during heavy rain. The SaniDry dehumidifier stops musty smells and moisture from forming promoting better-quality air. 

A troubling pattern of damp floors and musty odors soon sent an important message to a homeowner in East Orange, NJ, their basement was facing a water problem that could no longer be ignored. What began as minor seepage quickly raised concerns about potential structural damage and long-term moisture exposure. Determined to protect their home, the homeowner reached out to Quality 1st Basement Systems for a dependable, permanent solution. After conducting a thorough inspection, our team was able to identify the exact entry points of the water intrusion, giving us the insight needed to design a customized waterproofing plan tailored specifically to the home’s needs.

To fully resolve the issue, we installed a series of advanced systems working together to keep the basement consistently dry. Our patented WaterGuard Drainage System was placed along the perimeter to collect water at the footing level, while our TrenchDrain System protected the stairway entry point, preventing surface water from entering the space. For maximum reliability, we installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, equipped with multiple pumps for protection even during heavy storms or power outages. Finally, our IceGuard Discharge Line was added to ensure water could discharge safely even in freezing temperatures.
