Before & After Photos

In Pedricktown, NJ, a homeowner became concerned about the growing cracks and bowing conditions along their basement walls, which were threatening the structural integrity of their home.

After contacting Quality 1st, our team recommended the installation of our heavy-duty CarbonArmor Reinforcing System, a high-strength solution designed to stabilize and repair foundation walls. The system involved applying durable carbon fiber strips to the affected areas, which effectively prevented further movement and eliminated the cracks.

As a result, the homeowner was able to restore the stability of their basement, ensuring a safe and secure foundation for years to come!

A Conshohocken, PA homeowner noticed large cracks forming next to this window of their basement wall. They decided to contact Quality 1st Basement Systems to meet with a Foundation Specialist to inspect and provide recommendations on repair. System Design Specialist, Laszlo Lenkey, inspected the foundation walls throughout the entire the basement and knew the Carbon Armor Reinforcement System would be the best repair solution. Carbon Armor is designed to stabilize bowing foundation walls. The system is ten times stronger than steel, preventing the walls from bowing further. 

In Ardmore, PA, a homeowner noticed signs of foundation settlement in their crawl space, including uneven floors and noticeable structural instability. Concerned that the issue would worsen over time and damage their home further, they contacted Quality 1st for a professional assessment.

After a thorough inspection, our team recommended the installation of the patented SmartJack Reinforcement System, designed to provide strong, adjustable support to the sagging crawl space beams. The system was carefully installed, stabilizing the foundation and lifting the beams back to their proper position.

As a result, the homeowner’s crawl space was restored to a stable, healthy, and inviting environment, ensuring long-term protection against further settlement issues.

This Easton, PA was facing the most extreme case of foundation failure: the cinderblock walls were shifting, crumbling, and separating from the home completely. This condition left the home unsupported which raised concerns for the homeowner in regards to the safety of their home. To address such a major failure in a home's foundation Quality 1st has a support solution that permanently shifts the home's weight load onto new, heavy-duty wall panels. The EverBrace Wall Restoration System is specifically designed for cases like this where brick, cinderblock, or stone foundations experience wall failure. Without any exterior disruption, EverBrace steel panels are installed on the interior of the compromised foundation wall and secured with steel beams. A specially designed foam is then injected behind the wall to fill the space and transfer the load from the failing wall to the new EverBrace system. This system is a powerful and permanent solution to the worst cases of foundation failure and will guarantee this home the support it needs!
