Before & After Photos

The foundation of this East Hanover, NJ home was experiencing foundation settlement. The settlement was causing sagging in the home and bowing basement walls. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed CarbonArmor straps to the basement walls to stabilize the foundation. The walls will no longer move, and this foundation is now safe!

When subtle dips in the floors above hinted at hidden problems, a homeowner in Margate City, NJ discovered weakened support beams in their crawl space and knew immediate action was necessary to protect their home. Concerned about further structural damage, they contacted Quality 1st for a thorough evaluation. Our team conducted a detailed assessment, identifying the areas most affected by settlement and designing a customized repair plan to restore stability and ensure long-term protection.

To address the issue, we installed our heavy-duty SmartJack Support System, strategically lifting and reinforcing the compromised beams throughout the crawl space. This system not only restored proper alignment and strength but also provided a durable solution to prevent future settlement.

With the crawl space fully supported and secure, the homeowner gained complete peace of mind, confident that their home’s foundation is now stable, safe, and protected for years to come!

This Spotswood, NJ homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems after discovering water seeping into their basement. Our System Design Specialist, Randy Halal inspected the area and discovered the basement was undergoing foundation issues along with water issues. He discovered the walls were cracks and bowing inwards, allowing water to seep into the basement when it rained. 

Steven then recommended the best solution would be install our Triple Safe Sump Pump, to pump out the unwanted water, and PowerBrace System by Supportworks, to help stabilize the home. In addition, Steven also recommended our CleanSpace Barrier should be installed to prevent any dampness and humidity from forming. 

The homeowner was very happy with the installation, and did not experience any other issues with their home. Since then, they have been fully satisfied. 

The owner of this home in Towaco, NJ noticed that the foundation was sinking at one of the back corners near the garage. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed push piers to the exterior of the home to lift the home back into its original position. The push piers were driven deep into the soil and transfers the weight of the home through the piers to the competent soil below. This Towaco home is now permanently stabilized.
