Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Ocean, New Jersey noticed their walls were cracking and bowing inwards, which is caused by hydrostatic pressure against the wall. They contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Jack Huber, provided an inspection and suggested a carbon fiber strap to stabilize the wall. Our foreman installed the CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcement System which is made from a fiber-reinforced polymer. The straps are attached to the wall and fastened with steel brackets. The straps will support the wall and begin to pull it back to its original position. 

A homeowner in Ocean, NJ contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems after noticing their basement walls were bowing inwards. Our System Design Specialist, Jack H., provided an inspection of the walls. Jack noticed the walls were also developing horizontal cracks. He then recommended our Carbon Armor Reinforcement System would be a perfect solution. Carbon Armor is a flexible system that stabilizes bowing walls. The system is ten times stronger than steel. It's carefully applied to the walls using a strong epoxy resin. The cure time is quick, and the walls will no longer bow. Since the installation, the homeowner has not experienced any other issues with their basement walls again.

Brynne, from Neptune City, contacted Quality 1st Basements for a solution to his concerns in his basement. He noticed dampness from time to time during and after heavy rain. We sent Specialist, Javier out to do a full inspection of the basement area and design a solution that would keep the space dry.

Upon inspecting the damp basement, Javier noticed multiple cracks in the foundation wall. Knowing that over time this could cause serious foundation issues, he suggested the basement walls be stabilized. He suggested our Wall Reinforcing System, Carbon Armor to stabilize each wall and a TripleSafe sump pump to provide the ultimate solution for the dampness.
