Pay attention to making the pâte brisée correctly: If it’s too dry, your pie crust may crumble.
The solution is to add liquid one spoonful at a time.
Remove extra moisture from the filling ingredients: Thoroughly cook any vegetables you add to the filling to avoid moisture which will destroy your bottom crust.
Blind bake your crust: Baking your pie crust without the filling is the surest way to ensure a flaky golden crust.
Apply an egg wash to the blind-baked pie crust: You can brush a layer of egg white over the pie crust about 10 minutes before it is done blind baking.
Apply a foil shield: When you begin baking your quiche, your pie crust is fully cooked (thanks to blind baking).
Make sure the ingredients are dry: If you’re adding vegetables, make sure raw veggies are cooked thoroughly.
Pan fry mushrooms and blanch spinach.
Squeeze out all the extra liquid from your spinach before adding to the egg filling.

To prevent a soggy crust, bake the empty shell for longer before adding the filling, or pour the filling into a frozen crust and bake it that way, this way the crust will not be soggy on the bottom.

To prevent a soggy vegan quiche crust, blind bake the crust before adding the filling.
You can create a barrier between the filling and crust by adding an ingredient that won't change the flavor of the quiche.
Consider switching to a metal pie pan if you're not already using one.
You can also use a preheated pizza stone or baking steel instead of a baking sheet.
Baking the quiche on a lower rack will concentrate heat on the bottom of the quiche and help the crust crisp.
Coating the inside surface of the bottom crust will create a barrier to prevent sogginess.
Adding a layer of corn syrup or a slightly beaten egg white before pouring in the filling will form a seal between the pie dough and the filling and will help make the crust crisp and flaky.
Putting a quiche that is ready for the oven on a hot baking sheet helps the crust get a jump-start on cooking so the dough will become impermeable to the liquid in the quiche filling.

To prevent a soggy vegan quiche crust, it's best to cook the pastry base first, without the filling, this is known as "baking blind".
Line the pastry filled dish with a piece of greaseproof paper or baking parchment and fill the base with baking beans or rice.
Bake the pastry at the temperature recommended for your recipe for around 20 minutes, until the edges of the pastry are lightly golden.
Remove the dish from the oven and carefully lift out the paper and beans, then return the dish to the oven and bake for a further 5 minutes, or until the base of the pastry looks dry.
You can then fill the pastry base and bake the filling.
Some people like to paint the surface of the pastry base with lightly beaten egg white after the beans have been removed and before returning the dish to the oven as the egg white cooks onto the surface of the pastry and can act as a slight sealant to help to keep the pastry crisp.
It can help to pre-cook the filling first, particularly fruit, as you can drain off any excess liquid coming from the filling before putting it into the pie.
Make sure the filling is thoroughly cooled before adding it to the pie as a warm filling will also lead to soft pastry.
