Before & After Photos

Shifting soil and prolonged moisture exposure had caused noticeable foundation settlement in the crawl space of a Browns Mills, NJ home, leaving weakened support beams and creating concerns about the overall stability of the structure. Aware of the potential risks to both the home’s safety and long-term integrity, the homeowner contacted the professionals at Quality 1st Basement Systems to assess the situation and implement a reliable, lasting solution.

Foundation settling can lead to uneven floors, compromised structural supports, and costly damage if left unaddressed, making timely professional intervention critical.

After a thorough inspection of the crawl space, our team identified the areas most affected by soil movement and beam deterioration and designed a customized repair plan to stabilize the home. The solution included the installation of our SmartJack Support System, engineered to reinforce weakened support beams, stabilize settling areas, and restore the crawl space to a secure and level condition.

By implementing this advanced system, the homeowner now benefits from a structurally sound foundation, long-term protection against further settlement, and peace of mind knowing their home is safely supported.

Concerned by sagging floors and musty odors, this Ocean City, NJ homeowner realized their crawl space issues were more than just a minor nuisance, they were signs of deeper structural and moisture problems. Upon inspection, our team identified foundation settlement and elevated humidity levels as the primary causes behind the weakening support beams. Understanding the risks of delayed action, such as wood rot, mold growth, and long-term structural damage, the homeowner turned to Quality 1st for a permanent, reliable solution.

To address both the structural and environmental concerns, we installed our SmartJack Reinforcement System to stabilize and lift the sagging floor joists. These galvanized steel supports are adjustable, corrosion-resistant, and anchored to engineered base pads for lasting strength. To control humidity and prevent future moisture issues, we added our SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier, an energy-efficient, high-performance system designed specifically for crawl spaces.

Together, these systems created a dry, stable, and protected environment, restoring the integrity of the crawl space and delivering lasting peace of mind for the homeowner!

Our Specialist, Joe, recommended additional support to the sagging floor beams. Our foreman, Jonathan and his crew installed our SmartJack Crawl Space Support System to support the beams inside the crawl space. SmartJacks are designed to stabilize weak crawl space beams, which support the floors of most standard homes. Once the crawl space beams are supported, the floors above are straightened. Peace of mind was restored to the homeowner once their floors were fully repaired.
