Before & After Photos

In Short Hills, NJ, a homeowner grew concerned after noticing cracks forming in their basement walls and consistent water intrusion following heavy rains. These warning signs pointed to potential foundation settlement and poor drainage around the home, issues that, if left unaddressed, could lead to significant structural damage and costly repairs. Wanting to act before the problem worsened, the homeowner contacted Quality 1st for a professional assessment and long-term solution.

After a detailed inspection, our team confirmed the foundation had begun to shift and that groundwater was entering through wall-floor joints. To resolve the issue, we installed our patented WaterGuard Drainage System to effectively capture and redirect water to a sump pump system, keeping the basement dry. We also added BrightWall Panels along the basement walls, creating a durable, waterproof barrier that improves both moisture control and appearance. To permanently stabilize the foundation, our crew installed Push Piers, which were driven deep into stable soil and secured to the footing to lift and support the structure. With all systems working together, the basement is now dry, reinforced, and protected against future water and settlement issues!

Our Wall Anchor System helps in the stabilization of cracked, bowed basement walls. Some of the advantages that you can get from the Wall Anchors System is that in many cases they straightens your walls, and will not damage interior flooring.

To fix this dangerously bowing Springfield foundation wall, Quality 1st Basement Systems installed a PowerBrace wall system. The PowerBrace system prevents the wall from bowing any further and cracking.

With summer 2013 approaching this homeowner in Englishtown decided to do something about the sunken and settled concrete slabs around his pool. The trip hazards were not safe for his small children. So Foundation Supportworks of New Jersey was able to remedy the problem with the PolyLEVEL Polyurethane Injection System. Drilling penny sized holes in the concrete and injected foam was able to lift the sunken concrete up a total of 5 inches.

Manalapan, NJ homeowner noticed the first level of his home was slightly uneven. The cinder blocks in the basement were expanding and moving inward. System Design Specialist, Ken Peare recommended The PowerBrace Wall Repair System, which will stabilize any failing foundation that is tilting inwards or buckling. The adjustable steel beams are secured to the joists above the wall.Overtime, with proper adjustments, the brace will raise the wall back to its original state.
