Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Jackson, New Jersey noticed their basement walls were cracking and bowing inwards. This can happen because the poorly compacted soil around the foundation becomes saturated during heavy rainfall. This wet soil creates hydrostatic pressure against the walls. They contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Joe Mancini, suggested a wall reinforcing system. Our foreman, Mario Barron, used the CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System which is stronger than steel and provides the ultimate protection by stabilizing the wall. The brackets above allow the system to be adjusted to bring the wall back towards its original position. 

We recently had the pleasure of assisting a homeowner in Jackson, NJ, after they contacted us struggling with concerns relating to indications of foundation settlement in their basement. The homeowner noticed that the walls were beginning to crack and bow, prompting them to seek out a permanent solution. 

Our team was able to conduct an extensive inspection on the basement, identifying weak points along the walls, while determining which repair method would effectively restore the structural integrity of the home. Next the team installed our patented CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System, this durable, non-invasive solution successfully stabilized the walls without the need for heavy excavation. The system is specifically designed to be discreet and effective, providing long-term protection, improving the structural integrity of the homes foundation, and preventing costly future repairs.

With CarbonArmor in place, this basement was completely restored to a stable, dry, and healthy condition, providing this homeowner with total peace of mind!

Our System Design Specialist recommended our PowerBrace Foundation Wall Repair System. When a foundation wall has hydrostatic pressure pushing against it, the foundation wall begins to bow inward. To stabilize the failing wall, our team installs multiple PowerBraces that consists of steel beams that are secured to the joists above the wall with brackets.  This system can be adjusted allowing the system to be tightened and the wall to be gradually pull back towards its original position.

A homeowner in Old Bridge, New Jersey noticed their basement walls were cracking and bowing inwards. This is due to the poorly compacted, saturated soil around the foundation, which creates hydrostatic pressure against the walls. The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Will Harris, who suggested they use a wall reinforcement system. Our foreman installed the CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcement System which is made from a fiber-reinforced polymer that is 10 times stronger than steel. The straps are attached to the wall and secured with heavy-duty steel brackets. The straps will stabilize the wall and begin to pull it back to its original position.
