Perfect from start to finish! After Sandy, I thought my family would never be able to utilize the living space we had established in the basement ever again. With six of us in the house and a large dog, this is an important place to unwind or get some privacy when needed. Rick first put me at ease by explaining this state of the art system. He never pressured the sale, and the price was unbeatable. Juan Garcia and his crew did an excellent job with the demo and full installation. The guys were respectful and extremely clean. I think the basement was cleaner when they left than before they got there - no joke. The pump system is even more impressive when you see it installed, and of course, you say to yourself, "why didn't I think of that?" I am very happy with the company, the product, and all of the workers. Thank you Rick, Juan, and all of the crew for giving me my basement back - worry free.

Randy came out after we saw a leak from waterproofing installed by the same company two ok the earlier. There were a few issues that weren t handled the first time, but to be honest, we had a downpour when they were installing the waterproofing. Randy extended the pipe for one of the existing sump pumps and gave it a new battery, while concreting aground areas that weren t reinforced. He was super helpful and I hope if there s ever a problem down the line, Rnady comes back out.

Just had our annual maintenance done by John Olsen from Quality 1st Basement Systems. We've had our system for well over 10 years and the technicians that come to do the annual maintenance are usually professional and thorough. John was no exception. He called before he arrived to let us know he was on his way and was respectful while in our home.

Horrific experience with this company. Promised me they had much experience with older homes,and they definitely do not know anything!! workers showed up did not speak English, jack hammered into an underground well pipe, head contractor was contacted via FaceTime and he was completely arrogant and full of himself with no offer of him remediating the problem they caused. Spent hours trying to find emergency plumber. They were supposed to reimburse me for water guard they didn't install, took three months and they came up with random price without any itemized invoices. TERRIBLE TERRIBLE COMPANY. HUNTERDON COUNTY NJ. I would never recommend this company to anyone.

I am very disappointed. They did not explain that I needed two dedicated outlets, and they caused a breaker overload. When I contacted them about the problem, they did nothing. I would be careful to use this company as they are not reputable.

Made an appointment in August for an estimate. Appointment was cancelled the day they were supposed to visit for the review and estimate due to an "emergency." Set up a second appointment in September. The tech is a no show, no call. They end up calling my wife the following day to explain they had "car trouble." What a way to do business.

The process from quote to completion was very easy and professional. The Sales Associate Joe worked with us on our actual needs and didn't push things we didn't need. The Installation Manager Juan was extremely professional and friendly. He made sure to point out everything he needed to do to make sure my Crawlspace was completed to my satisfaction. I could tell he really knew what he was doing and took pride in doing a good job. I would recommend Quality 1st to my friends.

I love dealing with this company. They are very professional, responsive and genuine. Justin came today to service my 4 pumps and it was a pleasure. He explained what he was going to do in advance and reviewed everything in detailed once he completed. More importantly, he was very neat which is always important when you have a finished basement. I always recommend this company and their service is fantastic.

My concrete drive way, after decades of usage, formed longitudinal cracks. As water got in and gradually washed the underneath soil away, differential settlement occurred. I called Jeff Pitek at Quality 1 and he offered the solution by using the Polylevel seal to seal the cracks. Upon the scheduled day, his crew arrived and did the repair, as well as removing the existing expansion wood joints and also replaced them with the Polylevel seal. It took about half a day, not much of time to disturb car parking. The important thing is that after the repair, the concrete slab stopped settling and deteriorating. Surface run-off seems to drain properly now. So far, it is good. I am happy about Jeff's effective solution and in-time service.

We just purchased our home and discovered the crawlspace was in need of attention. We did not want to put money in to the home and have a damp, moldy space lurking below. We got in touch with Quality 1st Basement systems. They sent Steve Ventriglio out to access the crawlspace. Steve called to verify the appt and make sure we received the very informative information packet he sent us. Upon his on time arrival and inspection, he presented a proposal and we decided to insulate and encapsulate. We finalized the paperwork in our house with Steve, he had a date for the install while he was there and we felt really comfortable with the process. Then we got a call from the office to confirm the install the day before, the crew called on way that morning, arrived on time, worked neat and cleanly updating me along the way. When finished I was very impressed and happy I chose Quality 1st basements.

Justin called me to let me know he was on his way to my home about 15 minutes prior to our service window. He arrived early was very respectful when entering our home and completed a very thorough service of our sump pump. When I attempted to hand in my credit card he requested a contactless payment which had me read my card to him. Eveey interaction withcwith thisithis prompt, reliable and incredibly professional. Thank you Justin.

Well, we ve lived in our house for 25 years and seldom get water, probably 5 times in all those years. This year we got water 4 times between Thanksgiving and New Years. In December we decided it was time to have the basement done so we didn t need to shop-vac any more.

I did my research, got estimates, and decided on Quality 1st. Today Mario and his guys were here and finished in 1 day. They started work immediately, worked all day and finished completely. They left no mess, they swept up and even dusted off stuff that wasn t covered with plastic. These guys worked their tails off and deserve the recognition of the hard work.

Unfortunately for us since it is seldom we do get water I don t know how long we will have to wait until I can see how the system works.

Again I have to say from the time we had Paul over to see the basement and sign our contract to the end of today, Quality 1st has been great to deal with. From this experience I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. I hope this helps anyone on the fence with a decision.

I am very impressed with the quality of your work. Quality 1st Basement Systems did a great job for me . Everything looks so neat, I never expected that this kind of work when finished would look so nice. The Sump Pump is covered and the Sani Dry Dehumidifier is so quiet and my basement never had such a fresh smell and of course so dry.

Thank you for a job well done. I will recommend this company to my friends.

If I could give this company zero stars... I would!

My husband and I had them come to our home to complete a waterproofing and bright wall system. The waterproofing system was done first and came out great! However, I can not say the same for the bright wall system.

First and foremost, when the crew arrived to our home, my husband and I went to the basement to greet them and one of the crew members looked at my husband like he owed him money! He was rude and completely oblivious to the fact that he was in our home and refused to show common courtesy by greeting my husband and I.

While they were putting the bright wall system up, my husband and I repeatedly visited the basement to check the progress, as well as, to make sure everything was to our standards (we wanted to make sure it was meticulous). To our surprise, the bright walls were completely uneven and looked like my 6 year old niece was cutting the pieces up and screwing them on the wall. We brought it to the attention of the supervisor whom I asked if they were planning to put trimming on it. Well, I can guarantee you that if we did not ask about the trimming, it would not have been done!

Then, while they were finishing the system, we noticed that there were sections that were not screwed properly to the concrete and we also brought that to the attention of the supervisor. He told us that unfortunately that is how the system was and he couldn't do anything about it. My husband asked him, "WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT? All you have to do is add a screw here and here!" The supervisor did not like that we were asking him to do his job and became extremely upset.

Needless to say, when the work was done, the basement was left a mess with dust, screws, and scraps all over the floor.

We then had a supervisor come to our home to explain our concerns and he completely agreed with us. They will be sending someone else out to finish the work that should have been done in the first place! We will not be doing business with this company again or referring them to any family and friends!

Quite honestly, I am surprised they remain in business if this is the type of work that is completed!

System works fine. However, they promised a discount for putting their sign on my lawn, then reneged. They blow off appts., like today. Sat here from 10-2 and no one showed or called. When I called their office, it rang, gave a message, and hung up on me.

For a long time I feared the rain. It would flood the basement of our brownstone and cause a dangerous nuisance, worse and worse as time went on. But finally I wised up and called Quality 1st Basement Systems. Ken P. came and checked it out. Immediately I knew I was dealing with a pro; someone knowledgable, who gave a damn, and who could put together a SYSTEM ( cause that s what it is; not just some simple fix that doesn t work) that would alleviate my flooding problem. Boy, did he ever. Ken spec d a setup of wall seal, perimeter drain, new floor and SERIOUS sump pump and dehumidifier. Scheduling work and financing couldn t have been easier. A week later Melvin and his crew arrived, worked their ASSES off for two days installing (didn t leave one speck of dust when they were done) and I was left with a beautiful, clean basement. Then I waited for the rain. Last night it dumped 1.3 in four hours. Without this system that would have resulted in a disastrous flood. But that basement is as clean and dry as it was when Melvin and his guys walked out of here. I m so relieved and happy. No longer will I fear the rain.

In all seriousness, Quality 1st Basement Systems is a great company. Ken couldn t have been more professional; the system he put together WORKS. Melvin and his crew were prompt, courteous, efficient, and they cleaned up and hauled away every iota of dust from their work (and even some of mine). The company name is apt: it s all about Quality. Thanks guys.

I had a dehumidifier installed with a condensation pump yesterday by Quality First Basement Systems. The crew, lead by Juan Garcia, was great. They were professional, knowledgeable and neat. I asked Juan and his crew a bunch of questions about the installation, and they patiently answered every one. Juan also pointed out the various options on where to place the dehumidifier, and his top suggestion made the most sense. Shows a real willingness to work with the customer and knowledge of his products and the proper installation.

I also had vent covers installed on the crawl space vents. Again a very neat and thorough job.

Quality First came highly recommended by my house inspector who is a structural engineer, and I'm glad I chose them to do the work.

Ken Peare was my salesman / consultant. He was also extremely knowledgeable and helpful, and pointed out the same issues as my house inspector.

Meet with these guys before doing any basement waterproofing work. You will not be sorry.

We had a great experience with all of the Quality 1st teams we worked with. Jeff was great at explaining the technologies and the processes and we felt very comfortable moving forward with our project. The first team who came to install the anchors was informative, professional and prepped all the surrounding areas to protect and keep clean. Our second team raised the garage floor and we were equally pleased with their professionalism and politeness. I would highly recommend Quality 1st.

After literal years trying to find someone to help save my historic home s failing foundation and contractors who were simply guessing, I happened upon Quality 1st Basement. They swooped in, knew exactly what I needed, and did a quick clean job of stabilizing the foundation and waterproofing my crawl space. It wasn t cheap, but they did the whole project in about 4 days despite some crazy weather and re-engineering setbacks when others said they would need two weeks. I have a transferable guarantee against future sinking and peace of mind that the home is now safe and secure. Highly recommend this company for basement water and foundation issues!

I would like to personally thank Bob Peters and Louis for a first class experience from start to finish.

Extremely happy with the work that was done - specifically by Mario , the foreman assigned to our job and his team. They exemplified professionalism, were courteous and above all did great quality work (and then some). We had our basement waterproofed, had multiple installations and when they had to deal with structural difficulties they were able to adapt and impressed with the ingenuity and adaptability .

We just had an amazing experience with Quality 1st Basement Systems last month. Our sales person Dan quoted us exactly what we needed--nothing more, nothing less--to turn our wet, dank basement into a clean and safe usable space. Foreman Juan and his team were unbelievably efficient, knocking out what we though would be a 5-day project in half that time, including clean up and disposal of all the old, wet drywall and framing they demoed. I highly recommend this company--they turned our disaster of a basement into a space we can use and enjoy and know our family is safe from the basement moisture and everything that comes with it.

I worked with Maurice and Melvin, both were top notch to deal with. Maurice arrived at the scheduled time for the estimate, took the time to talk and discuss issues that were happening in my crawlspace, looked around under the house, and explained the work that would need to be done and how long it would take. He is extremely knowledgeable and patient, taking the time to answer all of my questions and concerns, without pressuring or pushing a sale. Melvin and his crew arrived a couple weeks later as we planned, got right to work, and completed the entire project, including clean up, within a day. I had dreaded getting to this project thinking it would be a nightmare, but Maurice and Melvin made the entire experience as painless and seamless as possible. I really can't believe how easy and smoothly it went. It is a big investment, but the crawlspace needed the attention or the problem would have just progressed. I would recommend Quality 1st without hesitation, especially Maurice and Melvin. Again, they were professional, replied to messages and calls promptly, and were always in touch about scheduled visits and the progress on the work the day it was being done. Whenever I called the office, the staff on the phone were always polite and helpful.

We had our basement waterproofed with Quality 1st, and the experience was excellent from beginning to end. The representative who came to our house, Ken Peare, was courteous, professional, and low-pressure. He spoke frankly about the work they did, and I really appreciated that Quality 1st gives their best price from the beginning. No ambiguity, and no games. Other companies like to play the "if you commit now I can give you this better price" game, which turned me off. I had such a good experience with the company, I recommended them to my parents for some work they needed to get done in their own basement, and they, too, went with Ken and Quality 1st.

The work crew that came to my house did excellent work. The left my basement cleaner than they found it, and took care to cover all of our belongings that remained in the basement. I was very interested it how the job was being done, and t he foreman explained the entire job to me step by step as it was happening; my presence in the work space was welcomed! The entire job was completed quickly and exactly as discussed.

I highly recommend Quality 1st, and urge anyone who needs to it give Ken a call to set you up with exactly what you need!

We had several quotes prior to calling Quality 1st. You would not believe the amount of crazy BS we received during those home visits/quotes, specially from those Mid-A people. Laura was great from the start. She wasn't pushy, you can tell she was being honest and she actually cared about the situation that we were in. We didn't get much water in our basement but it was enough to cause a big headache. Laura came out and inspected the basement, gave us a quote, explained everything that was going to be done during the scheduled date, and boy do I tell you, they were true to their word !! The crew that came did the job quickly, as described by Laura and also cleaned everything once they were done, including MOPPING the floors. Me and my wife couldn't be happier to have chosen Quality 1st Basements to handle this issue for us. The price was fair and the quality of work was superb. Keep up the great work Laura and Quality 1st Basements.

Excellent response from initial contact to actual solution implementation.

For years I was putting up with water coming up through my floor, then I heard about quality 1 basement Waterproofing. They sent out their specialist Maurice Robinson. Very well-mannered professional man. He explained to me what was happening and what would need to be done to stop it, in a way that I understood. He told me about the crew when they come out and what they would do. Well the crew came out very professional people also very well-mannered, they told me what they were going to do and the time frame it would take. They finished exactly the time they said they were, and they cleaned up like they would never there. That was two years ago to this date I haven't had a drop of water in my home. No more staying up late mopping up water losing rugs.. these people and quality 1 basement, are the best. I strongly recommend if you or anyone is having problems or water problems with your foundation. It's time to call in the experts, and those experts are quality 1 basement, thank you quality 1 basement. But I recommend you ask for the specialist Maurice Robinson .

Everything about Quality 1st Basements exceeded my expectations. The person that came to review the job and provide the quote was knowledgeable, thorough and explained everything to us clearly and with patience. Both teams that worked on my house were courteous, professional, communicated with me and answered all my questions. They did great work, cleaned up well after the job was done and were very concerned that I was satisfied. Jonathan was my foreman and he went above and beyond to make sure the job was done well and to meet my expectations. Everyone on the crew was professional and kind. They even worked with me to get my job done even though we had a tight deadline. I highly recommend Quality 1st Basements. I also think they were fairly priced.

I am very satisfied with my work from Quality 1st Basements, from the intial diagnosis Ken Peare performed on my basement and crawl space to the work performed by Jesus Sanchez.

My home is older and was suffering from sagging floors and stressed support beams. When Ken came over he pinpointed all the issues and drew up a detailed game plan to install a jack/power brace supplemental beam support systems in the basement and crawl space. Jesus and his team were able to complete the job in 2 days and I am very happy with the quality of the work and attention to detail. After the system was installed Jesus worked with us to adjust the jacks to get the floors level and to our satisfaction. Doors upstairs that were jammed are now closing and floorboards are very much improved.

I highly recommend Quality 1st Basements if you have the same issues I was having.

Great experience with Quality 1st Basement. We moved into a newly constructed home that, as it turns out, didn't put any basement drainage system in before finishing the basement. We found this out, naturally, the hard way.

Spoke to a few basement waterproofing specialists, but none that offered start to finish, 100% of the services. No other sheet rock / painters required.

Wilver and his team showed up on time both days, were very polite, respectful and answered all of our questions. Put in a french drain, cleaned up the mold, and put in a new sump pump with TRIPLE back up. And all of the work is guaranteed.

Kyle, the project manager, also showed up when he said he would, and spent a ton of time going over every detail of our project and addressed any concerns we had.

Q1 was definitely more expensive than some of the other people we spoke with, but none offered the full breadth of services and the ability to complete a full basement waterproofing in 2 days.

Highly recommended.

Jeff Nero is the ultimate professional and gentleman! He delivers on his promises and does not embellish. When we needed things done "live" during our project he IMMEDIATELY responded and took care of things. There no hidden extras and everything was upfront at every step.

Had a complete waterproofing system installed in our basement. Invested over $19000. Was told by sales team that they stand by their products and installation and guarantee this work for a lifetime and this guarantee is transferable. Well we have water damage on walls and where the wall meets the ceiling. A representative from the company came out and assessed the damage and after cutting holes in the wall blamed the damage on a heating vent that probably produced enough condensation to cause this damage. I had a HVAC professional come out to look it over and sees NO evidence of condensation and has NEVER heard of such a thing. It is clear the system failed and this company doesn't want to take responsibility. We just had the system serviced 6 months ago by them to make sure everything was working as it should. This company is quick to take your money and sell you a warranty that they never intended to stand by. I would not recommend this company. All talk

I am very pleased with the project recently completed by Quality 1st Basement Systems. From start to finish, they were professional, patient, thorough and very clean. They said the project would be 2 days, and it was. Even though it rained on the second day, there was no dirt or mud left behind despite the piers being dug deep into the bedrock under my basement. The workers were polite and very respectful of my property and pets. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to do basement or foundation repairs.

We have previously had Quality 1st install a sump pump system and install drains around the basement. They did an excellent job, were neat, cleaned up and have provided excellent service to the system. We're going to have another wall of the basement added to the drainage system, and I am extremely impressed with the price, the short wait to have the work done, and the professionalism of the service tech, Justin Williams. All in all, I'm extremely happy with the interactions and the work that I've had done with this company and highly recommend them.

The team of Esau and Luis have carried out two different projects at our house. We first installed the waterproofing system in our basement. The crew did really great job, they were very courteous, very hard-worker and also did a great cleanup work. They always listened to your requirements and do their best to accomplish them. Then later on we specifically requested the same team to finish our basement, and again, very satisfied with the finishing and their work. I think their kindness and hardwork should be rewarded by the company.

If you are looking for professional and reliable company Quality 1st is definetly the company to go with. We had a wet and musty smelling basement for years and Quality 1st was the only company we felt comfortable with their warranties and appreciate the annual call to remind us about maintenance! The technicians are very kind and work efficiently and leave everything clean.

Called Quality First for an estimate to put a perimeter drain and sump in a detached garage. Got set up with Anthony who showed up on time the day of the appointment and went over how to fix the issue. I had a few questions before the job was done and Anthony was easy to get in touch with. Anthony is a straight shooter who will go the extra mile to make sure you're happy with the job. He followed up after the first rain to make sure it was dry.

The jury is still out since the promised one day j...

The jury is still out since the promised one day job has not been completed yet NOT because Brett's crew didn't work hard enough but because the rep who gave the estimate failed to document the things I told him. It is my sentiment that he set the Brett's crew up for failure. 2 things:
1) My house has a very high water table for the location being quite far from the beach and all. Even the rep recognized that because my pump was going off non stop and there is water puddles everywhere in the yard hence the need to call quality first for an estimate. How did the rep miss that fact, especially after I told him that my number one concern was the water everywhere in the backyard and my overworked pump, even physically showed him. However, Brett's crew did not get the memo because it was not relayed/documented on paper. That caused them to not be prepared for this situation.
2)Upon walk through the project, the rep suggested one discharge line each in the front and back yard while the pitch of my front lawn is reversed, meaning it's not practical to have one line in the front. When you look at the house from the sidewalk, you can clearly see the slope is going down towards the house. How did the rep miss that?

Nick and Sherman did a great job on the lifting and leveling of my concrete walkway! They showed up on time and were a pleasure to work with through out the entire experience. Very professional and did such an awesome job. Jeff was my salesman and he really was awesome as well. I recently got a quote to rip up my concrete walkway and redo the entire thing as I was told the walkway was sinking. The cost was astronomical. I reached out to quality first and Jeff really worked with me and saved me so much money. I am very happy with the entire experience and I will choose quality 1st basements again.

They listened to my concerns and fixed the issue to exactly what I wanted and needed. They recognized that it was an oversight during the original install and fixed it no charge. I didn't have to ask. They did the "right" thing. That is why I enjoy doing business with this company.

This was my first time having someone other than my brother or one of his friends do work on my house so I was a bit nervous going into this project. Ken put my mind at ease by his knowledge and professionalism and Victor Leon and his crew followed through on Kens' promises. Vic and crew did a great job and incredibly neat and respectful of my home. Thanks guys!

From start to finish, and even when maintenance time comes around, Quality 1st Basement Systems has been wonderful.
From the Sales Rep. (Randy) who came out to give an estimate to the work crew, Supervised by (Juan Garcia) they did a great job.
After they finished the job it was like they weren't even there is was so clean. They were like a well oiled machine. Great crew, be proud.
If you are experiencing water problems in your basement, give this company a chance, I am sure you will be satisfied. What's also nice is that once your job is done, and if you have a problem or even just a simple question they are there for you. Thank you so very much! (I'm Dry)

This job from start to finish was very professional. I had a problem with old window wells that on heavy wind and rain would allow water to pool up in the wells around the basement windows. Ken Peare - system design specialist was sent out to my house, he understood my concerns and recommended to replace all the window wells with their sealed system. Something i never knew existed, its an enclosure with a clear lid that is attached to the foundation of the house. These new wells completely changed and updated the look of my house. Also the sealant they used between them and the foundation is waterproof so any chance of water getting through them and the new basement windows (which they also installed)...is slim to none. The new wells have a clear lid which allows a good amount of light to come in the basement as opposed to the old metal and weed infested wells...Great Job!!!
