A homeowner in Marlboro Township, New Jersey had a crack in their foundation wall in their basement, and contacted Quality 1st for a solution. CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System was installed on the walls. The CarbonArmor strips are made from a fiber reinforced polymer that is 10 times stronger than steel and is specifically designed for this purpose. 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.

So Foreman Mario, and his team replaced all the old basement windows with new windows that will allow light in but keep unwanted moisture and water out.
