Before & After Photos

In Dundalk, MD, a homeowner began noticing signs of foundation settlement in their basement, including uneven floors and weakened support beams that were putting the structure of the home at risk. Concerned about potential further damage and the safety of their home, they reached out to Quality 1st for a reliable solution to restore stability to their basement. After assessing the situation, our team recommended installing the SmartJack Reinforcement System to address the foundation issues and prevent any further settlement.

Our experts quickly installed the SmartJack system, strategically placing adjustable steel piers beneath the weakened beams to lift and stabilize the foundation. With its durable, corrosion-resistant design, SmartJack provided immediate support, lifting the beams back to their original position and reinforcing the structure for the long term.

The installation not only restored the basement to a stable and safe condition but also gave the homeowner peace of mind knowing that their home was now protected from further foundation issues!

Recently in Joppa, MD, a homeowner was growing increasingly concerned as moisture continued to infiltrate their basement and subtle signs of foundation settlement began to appear. Cracks along the walls and a lingering dampness raised red flags, signaling that without intervention, the situation could evolve into serious structural damage and mold infestation. Recognizing the urgency, the homeowner contacted Quality 1st in search of a permanent, professional solution. After a thorough inspection, our team identified the underlying issues and crafted a targeted plan to address both the moisture problems and the shifting foundation.

To combat the dual threat, we installed our SilverGlo Insulation Panels, designed to reflect heat, resist moisture, and enhance overall energy efficiency. These high-performance panels create a protective thermal barrier that keeps the basement dry and comfortable year-round. To reinforce the structural integrity of the home, we also implemented our PowerBrace Wall Repair System, an adjustable, steel I-beam solution that permanently stabilizes and supports bowing or cracked foundation walls.

With these durable systems in place, the basement is now fully protected from further water damage and structural movement, allowing the homeowner to feel confident and secure in their home once again!

After conducting a thorough inspection, our team identified the root of the issue and recommended the installation of our SmartJack Support System. This durable, adjustable steel pier system is specifically designed to stabilize and lift sagging floors caused by foundation settlement.

In Chesapeake City, MD, a homeowner began noticing troubling signs of foundation settlement in their basement, including cracking and bowing walls. Concerned about the structural integrity of their home, they reached out to Quality 1st for a professional assessment.

Upon arrival, our team conducted a detailed inspection and confirmed that the foundation issues were being caused by a combination of water intrusion and soil pressure. To properly address the problem, we designed a customized repair plan to stabilize the foundation and prevent future damage.

Our solution included the installation of three of our most trusted systems. First, we installed our WaterGuard Drainage System along the basement perimeter to collect and redirect any incoming water away from the foundation. To protect the interior walls and control moisture, we applied CleanSpace Wall Panels, which act as a vapor barrier and brighten the basement environment. Lastly, our crew reinforced the bowing walls with our CarbonArmor Reinforcement System, carbon fiber straps that permanently stabilize the structure without invasive construction.

Together, these systems resolved the homeowner’s foundation concerns and restored the basement to a dry, healthy, and stable condition.

What started as small cracks in the basement walls quickly turned into a serious concern for this Wilmington, DE homeowner. With signs of foundation settlement worsening and water beginning to seep in, it was clear the problem wasn’t going away on its own. Wanting a permanent solution, the homeowner contacted the professionals at Quality 1st.

Our team conducted a full inspection and developed a custom repair plan that addressed every issue from the ground up.

We began by installing our WaterGuard Drainage System to capture and redirect any incoming water before it reached the basement floor. Next, SilverGlo Insulation Panels were added to improve energy efficiency and create a clean, moisture-resistant barrier along the walls. To ensure long-term protection against flooding, we installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, offering triple-layered defense, even in the event of a power outage. Finally, we stabilized the failing walls with our EverBrace Wall Restoration System, a powerful solution that permanently reinforces deteriorating foundation walls.

The result is a basement that’s not only dry and energy-efficient but also structurally sound and built to last!
