Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

In Philadelphia, PA, a homeowner was facing serious structural concerns after discovering spreading wall cracks and sagging floors in their basement. The root of the issue stemmed from shifting soil and moisture intrusion beneath the foundation, two common yet damaging forces that can cause long-term instability. As the support beams in the basement grew increasingly compromised, the homeowner realized the problem was beyond a quick fix and turned to Quality 1st for a permanent, professional solution.

After a detailed inspection of the basement's structural integrity, our team designed a customized repair plan centered around the installation of our patented SmartJack Support System. These heavy-duty steel supports were strategically placed beneath the weakened beams to lift and stabilize the floor above. Engineered for long-term durability, the SmartJack system immediately reinforced the failing structure and protected it against future settlement.

With the installation complete, the basement was fully restored to a safe and secure condition, giving the homeowner peace of mind and a renewed sense of pride in the strength and stability of their home!

We sent Foundation expert, Mike PettyJohn out to perform a full inspection and provide the best recommendation.
