Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Over time, the homeowner in Downingtown, PA, observed cracks and bowing in the walls of their garage, raising concerns about potential structural deterioration. After our team conducted a thorough inspection of the area, they assessed the cause of the weakened walls and determined the most effective repair solution. Our crew then installed the ultra-stabilizing PowerBrace Wall Repair System, successfully restoring the bowing and cracked wall to its original straightened position. The garage wall is now fully reinforced, providing the homeowner with complete peace of mind.

Gradual changes within a Hockessin, DE home began to reveal signs of foundation settlement, as soil displacement and weakening support beams compromised the stability of the crawl space. These conditions posed a serious risk to the home’s structural integrity, with the potential to impact floors, walls, and load-bearing components if left unaddressed. Recognizing the importance of early intervention, the homeowner sought a professional evaluation to prevent further deterioration.

Following a detailed inspection by Quality 1st Basement Systems’ System Design Specialist John, a customized repair plan was developed to properly stabilize the crawl space. The solution included the installation of our patented SmartJack Support System, designed to lift sagging areas and provide permanent structural support by transferring weight to stable soil below.

With this system in place, the crawl space was successfully reinforced, restoring stability and giving the homeowner long-term confidence in the strength and durability of their home!

At this Pottstown home, the owner was getting water in through horizontal cracks in the foundation wall. The team went out to install our CarbonArmor Wall Stabilization Straps that is 10x stronger than steel and flexible enough to form tightly against the foundation wall. The CarbonArmor straps are secured to the floor joist and will quickly stabilize the foundation wall that has begun to bow. This system connects down into the sub-floor drainage system that will securely collect any and all wall leaks, then flows down into the sump pump. 

In this basement, owners were experiencing wall leakage and needed to find a solution to fix the foundation walls without damaging them. Our team went out to the property to assess and then installed 5 of our CarbonArmor Straps that are used to stabilize and reinforce the walls. This system uses epoxy with the fiber straps that are 10x stronger than steel and balance the cracks. If not corrected, the foundation cracks can cause an even more serious problem and will worsen over time.

Pressure of soil pushing up against the foundation wall, Hydrostatic pressure, or Foundation Settlement are only a few reasons why a foundation wall could be bowing or cracking. Either way, you want to get this looked at as soon as you can so the issue doesn't continue and possibly worsen over time. 

For this customer, we have done several projects for them, Egress install, waterproofing and now foundation repair. This repair required 4 Carbon Armor Strips and 10, 8' Power Braces.
