Before & After Photos

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 homeowner in West Milford, NJ, was experiencing sagging floors above the crawl space and immediately wanted to fix the issue. Quality 1st Basements arrived to the job site and installed 8 SmartJacks along with a full crawl space encapsulation system. The SmartJacks are designed to stop the foundation from settling and can raise your sagging floor back to the proper level. We also installed our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System! The Clean space liner is used to protect the crawl space from water, mold, cold air and creepy crawlers.

To fix this dangerously bowing Springfield foundation wall, Quality 1st Basement Systems installed a PowerBrace wall system. The PowerBrace system prevents the wall from bowing any further and cracking.

Quality 1st Basement Systems was able to help provide a solution for the water concerns in this Short Hills, NJ  basement. Once the system was installed our team began stabilizing the foundation walls with Carbon Armor Straps. Our Carbon Armor Straps are made from flexible carbon fiber that is 10x stronger than steel. it is used to help stabilize the walls and end the cracking from emerging any further. It does not affect any future basement finishing and does not require any exterior excavation.
