Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Pompton Lakes, NJ homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems after noticing their garage walls started bowing inwards. They were concerns that over time this would cause serious foundation issues and so they needed a system that would stabilize the walls. Foundation Repair Specialist, Mike Fiorillo, recommended our PowerBrace Foundation Wall Repair System.  The system is installed with steel beams that are secured to the joists above the wall with a strong steel bracket. A benefit of this system is the adjustability to tighten each brace need be. 

The existing columns in this basement could no longer support the weight of the home. Our Senior Design Specialist, Jeff N. designed a solution that would add additional support the foundation needed for this home to be stable and therefore safe. Esau, our Foreman and his team were in charge of this project to make sure the installation was completed on time. By successfully installing our SmartJack Stabilizers, the homeowner no longer has to worry about sagging floors and weakened columns.

This homeowner in Millburn, New Jersey noticed their basement wall was bowing inwards. The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems, and our System Design Specialist Joe Hubbard provided an inspection and suggested they use a wall reinforcement system. Our crew installed our CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcement System, which is made from a fiber-reinforced polymer that is 10 times stronger than steel. 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. The homeowner was happy with the results and they did not have to worry about their foundation walls!

Don't let your home's foundation cause irreversible damage! Saturated soil surrounding the foundation of a home creates hydrostatic pressure that pushes inward. Over time, this pressure can force foundation walls to crack, bow, and, in severe cases, completely buckle and collapse beneath the home. In the case of this Millburn, NJ home, the foundation wall was suffering from serious bowing, putting the structural integrity of the home on the line. 

Quality 1st's team was able to provide the home a reliable and reinforcing solution. We used our Helical Push Pier System to restore the foundation's strength and provide an opportunity to lift it back in place. These steel piers are installed on the exterior of the home and are screwed into stronger soil underground, securing the weight load of your home onto the new piers. Our crew then restores the excavated soil back so the supporting system is completely hidden from view.
