Manahawkin, NJ homeowner had foundation damage after Hurricane Sandy.The foundation had vertical and staircase cracks inside the foundation of the crawl space. System Design Specialist, Mike Jersey, upon inspection found sagging beams inside the crawl space and foundation settlement as well.
SmartJacks were installed inside the crawl space to stabilize the sagging beams and the floor above it. The SmartJacks allow gradual lift of the beams and floor, bringing it back to its original level.
The Homeowner was very happy with the SmartJacks and the fact that they addressed the soul issue of the problem. The homeowner made a follow up appointment for Crawl Space Encapsulation as well.
Manahawkin homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems for an estimate on their damp and cold crawl space. Upon inspection, System Design Specialist, Jeff noticed virtually no existing insulation throughout half the crawlspace. The concrete floor and walls were damp and cold from moisture, and the owner said the floor on the first level was cold as well.
The Q1 team installed a SaniDry Dehumidifier along with CleanSpace and SilverGlo insulation to the walls and rim joists. New airtight and removable doors were applied to seal out the humidity from the outside. Terra Block, a flexible foam insulation, was installed under the CleanSpace as extra insulation to keep the crawl space warm. These products create an insulated, warm and dampness free environment for a more comfortable home above.
Quality 1st Basement Systems replaced an existing broken sump pump with a TripleSafe Sump pump to properly pump water out of the basement. Now this basement will stay healthy and dry any time it rains.

The Project Manager and his team injected the PolyLevel into the concrete slabs raising them and filling the cracks.
