Quality 1st Basement Systems Before & After Photos

SmartVent Flood Vents were installed in this crawl space in Seaside Park, NJ. Because the home is located in a flood zone, SmartVents were required by the insurance company and helped these homeowners lower their insurance premium.

A homeowner living in Jackson was experiencing sinking concrete around the pool area. This was a safety concern for the homeowner as summer was just around the corner and he would be opening the pool soon. One day he came across a Quality 1^st Basement System Concrete and leveling truck. Without  hesitation, he called Quality 1^st Basement Systems to receive a free estimate.

Design Specialist, Maurice Robinson went out to inspect the sinking concrete and design a solution to the problem. The concrete was sinking 3 inches off the ground. Project Manager Eder Sanchez and his crew, were able to lift and level the pool by injecting PolyLevel underneath the concrete slab. Polymer injection harnesses the expansive force of a structural grade geopolymer to provide fast concrete leveling. PolyLevel will stabilize concrete slab once its raised to its desired level. This tripping hazard was restored to its original state in a matter of hours thanks to Quality 1^st Basement System.

A homeowner in Seaside Park, NJ noticed their floors were sagging, so they contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems to find a solution. Our System Design Specialist arrive to the home, on time, and provided a full inspection and quote for the homeowner. After providing their full inspection, our system design specialist knew our SmartJack System would be the perfect solution. SmartJacks are installed against the sagging beam to provide additonal support. This system is adjustable and so over time the beams can be brought back towards their original level. 

This homeowner in Seaside Park, New Jersey noticed a musty odor coming from their crawl space. They were experiencing dampness and moisture and called Quality 1st Basement Systems for a solution. Our System Design Specialist, Mike DiVirgilio, helped the homeowner solve this issue. Our foreman, Luis Aguirre, and his crew installed the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System. This system will stop vapor from flowing up from the soil, stop vapor from coming in from the walls, and gives the appearance of looking bright and clean. Now the homeowner does not have to worry about mold, moisture, or bugs in their crawlspace.

A homeowner in Seaside Park, New Jersey noticed the floors in their home were sagging, their walls were cracking, and the main beams in the crawl space were unsound. These are all the symptoms of foundation settlement. When a crawl space is built, block columns could be spaced too far apart, which can lead to overloading and sagging between the columns. Weak soil can also cause the existing columns to sink or settle, which creates a gap between the top of the column and the bottom of the girder it was supporting. This can pose as a safety issue not only to the homeowner, but to the home as well.

The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement System and our System Design Specialist, Jack Huber, was able to help them come up with a plan to fix this issue. He suggested steel support system to help stabilize the foundation. Our foremen installed the SmartJack System, which do not replace the existing columns, but they help to bring strength and stability to the foundation. This process is done by assembling the steel beams into the soil. The support beams and floor joists are immediately stabilized and the above floors and walls will be lifted and stabilized. The support system is engineered to support large homes and load-bearing wall construction.
