Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Kendall Park, NJ encountered foundation issues that jeopardized the stability of their residence. Clearly visible cracks along the basement walls indicated significant pressure affecting the foundation, which, if not addressed promptly, could lead to a complete collapse of the wall. Our skilled team at Quality 1st implemented a noninvasive preventative installation to rectify the situation. CarbonArmor strips were securely bonded to the compromised foundation walls using a high-strength epoxy resin, effectively reinforcing and stabilizing the structure. With the installation of these strips, we successfully restored the home's stability and provided the homeowner with peace of mind.

A Monmouth Junction, NJ homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems describing their basement walls had began to move inwards. We call this, bowing, and it is usually caused by hydrostatic pressure against the foundation from the opposite side. The solution we recommended for a basement wall experiencing this type of movement, is the Carbon Armor Reinforcement System. The Carbon Armor Straps are applied to the wall with an epoxy adhesive which stabilizes the walls. 

In Rockaway, NJ, a homeowner observed signs of foundation settlement on the side of their home, with visible cracks in the walls and floors that were becoming increasingly uneven. The shifting foundation was beginning to cause doors and windows to stick, which raised serious concerns about the structural integrity of the property.

After reaching out to Quality 1st, our team conducted a thorough inspection and recommended our specially patented Helical Pier System as the best solution. The installation process involved driving steel piers deep into soil to anchor and lift the foundation back to its original position, stabilizing the structure permanently.

Once the piers were fully installed and the home was leveled, the homeowner was extremely relieved to have their property restored to a safe, stable condition, eliminating further settlement risks and ensuring long-term foundation protection!

A homeowner in Denville, New Jersey noticed their basement walls were cracking and bowing inwards. This happens when the soil around the home becomes too wet or too dry causing the foundation to shift and move. The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Laszlo Lenkey, provided an inspection and suggested they use a high strength carbon fiber strap on the wall. Our foreman installed the CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System which provides ultimate strength in stabilizing the walls.

Since the installation, the homeowner has not experienced any other foundation issues in their home.
