Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Sagging Beam Repair in Jersey City, NJ

A homeowner in Jersey City, NJ felt a strange feeling when walking in his home. He felt like the floor was sinking every time he took a step. He contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and scheduled an appointment for a specialist to come out and inspect his basement. We had our basement specialist come out to the homeowner's home and inspect his basement.  By taking his first look, our specialist found that the beam, holding up the top of the basement, was bent. It looked like it could break at any  time, so he told the homeowner that the beam needed to be fixed as soon as possible. The homeowner, then, scheduled another appointment for our basement specialist to come out with our crew and fix the beam.  To help solve the problem, our crew installed metal pillars that supported the beam from collapsing. First, our crew created a small setting for the pillars to fully stay in place; this will prevent any movement and allow full security for the pillars. They then installed the metal pillars, and drilled the top underneath the beam. Our crew installed multiple metal pillars to provide full support for the beam.  After the installment, the homeowner did not have to worry about his basement from collapsing, resulting in his full satisfaction.
