Before & After Photos

Quality 1st Basement Systems was contacted by an Old Bridge, NJ homeowner about a water concern in their basement. The homeowner has noticed water seeping into their basement during heavy rains, so our System Design Specialist, Will H., was set to inspect the situation. During the inspection, Will noticed the basement walls were bowing inwards and cracking, thus allowing water to seep inside. He then recommended our Carbon Armor Reinforcement System would help prevent the cracks from expanding. To help with the water issue, Will also recommended our WaterGuard French Drain system. Since the installation, the homeowner has not experienced any other issues in their home, and their peace of mind has been restored. 

This Old Bridge, NJ, homeowner was dealing with serious structural concerns due to bowing walls in their basement, which had been caused by shifting soil and hydrostatic pressure. As the walls began to bow inward, the homeowner feared for the long-term stability of their foundation and the safety of their home.

After reaching out to Quality 1st, our team recommended our specially patented CarbonArmor Reinforcing System, designed to stabilize and strengthen the basement walls. We installed durable carbon fiber straps that were securely bonded to the walls, restoring the structural integrity and preventing any further shifting or damage. This non-invasive system not only provided immediate reinforcement but also ensured the foundation would remain stable for years to come.

With the CarbonArmor System in place, the homeowner’s basement was fully restored to a dry, stable, and healthy environment, free from the risk of further wall movement or damage!

A Manchester, NJ homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems after noticing a stair-step crack forming on the exterior block of their home's foundation. Our System Design Specialist, Jay A., provided a thorough inspection of the home. After, he presented his findings to the homeowner, along with a quote. A few days later, our crew arrived at the home to install the Helical Pier System. Helical Piers are designed to lift and stabilize your home's foundation. The system is below grade, so it will be easily covered after installation. Since the repair, the homeowner has not experienced any other foundation issues in their home.

A Whiting, NJ, homeowner became concerned for their home after finding significant gaps forming between the walls and floor on the first level of their home. They contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems to have someone inspect their crawl space to determine the cause behind their floor sagging. Our Crawl Space System Design Specialist, Anthony, performed a thorough inspection and noticed the floor joist and crawl space beams were sagging. Anthony could see that they were in good condition but lacked support, and he recommended installing our SmartJack Crawl Space Support System. SmartJacks are installed against each crawl space beam to support the floor above. Gradually, this system can bring the floor back to its original position over time. 

After noticing the floors on the first level of their home had began to sag, this Caldwell, NJ resident contacted Quality 1st Basements System for a free inspection. Upon inspection, System Design Specialist, Joe Mancini, noticed signs of moisture and dampness which had started to effect the wood and beams in this crawl space. He recommended our SmartJack System to stabilize the floor joist and beams, protecting the structure from further settlement. The installation was completed by our foreman, Wilver Cardoza, and his team. As a result, the homeowner now had peace of mind that their floor was stabilized.
