Before & After Photos

Concerns began to rise for a Baltimore, MD homeowner when persistent dampness and musty odors started spreading through their basement. What initially appeared as elevated humidity soon revealed itself as a more serious issue, raising fears of wood rot, mold growth, and potential structural damage. Wanting a long-term and dependable solution, the homeowner reached out to Quality 1st for a professional assessment and lasting waterproofing plan.

After inspecting the space, our team pinpointed the exact source of water intrusion and designed a customized solution tailored to the home’s needs. We installed our patented WaterGuard Drainage System to capture and redirect water before it could reach the basement floor, ensuring effective and continuous protection. To further shield the space, we added our moisture-resistant CleanSpace Wall Panels, which prevent water vapor from passing through basement walls while improving the overall look of the area.

Together, these high-performance systems restored the basement to a dry, clean, and healthy condition, giving the homeowner confidence in the long-term protection of their home!

After dealing with damp walls and occasional flooding, this homeowner from Baltimore, MD decided it was time for a permanent solution. They chose a full basement waterproofing system featuring CleanSpace wall protection and a WaterGuard interior drainage system Together, these systems work seamlessly to capture water at every entry point and direct it safely away from the home. Since the installation, the basement has stayed dry, clean, and usable year-round, no more musty smells or water worries. The homeowner now enjoys peace of mind knowing their basement is protected by a comprehensive, long-lasting waterproofing solution.

This main support beam running in this basement was in need of some support itself. We had the perfect solution for this problem, SmartJacks! SmartJacks are high-capacity adjustable steel piers, designed to stop settling and even raise your floor back up to where it was. 

At this home in Baltimore, MD, the crawl space was bringing cold drafts into the upper levels of the home. The homeowner knew this was an issue, so they contacted us for a solution. We encapsulated the space with our CleanSpace System, which is designed to reduce moisture and humidity. We also installed our SilverGlo Insulated Wall Panels, which have a built-in heat barrier, creating a more energy-efficient area. Thanks to our Inspector, Jeff, and our crewman Jordan, the homeowner's peace of mind was restored! 

This old, cold, and leaking window needed to be replaced, so we installed an all-vinyl, energy-efficient EverLast Basement Window. These windows are airtight but easy to open. When unlocked, both panes can be removed for cleaning or for passing objects through – like a ladder or another item you’d rather not carry through your house.

We also installed a WellDuct window well drain in the window well outside. This drain is connected to the interior WaterGuard system to prevent window well flooding. We also wanted to prevent vapor transmission through the walls, so the ThermalDry Wall vapor barrier was installed. Not only does ThermalDry Wall help to lower relative humidity, but it also has a radiant shield that reflects up to 97% of the heat back into the basement.
