Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This Basement in Beach Haven, NJ was damaged from the hurricane. CarbonArmor Strips were installed to fix the bowing wall issues.

In Wood Ridge, NJ, a homeowner was facing persistent concerns relating to foundation settlement in their basement, which was resulting in wall cracks and increasingly unsafe conditions. The homeowner worried that leaving this issue unaddressed could eventually lead to severe structural damage to the entire integrity of the home, which prompted them to contact our talented team of repair specialists at Quality 1st.

Once our team arrived at the home they conducted a thorough evaluation on the home, identifying the causes of the foundation settlement and determining the most effective repair solution in the process. The team then installed our specially patented Push Piers, to ultimately restore and stabilize the home to a more structurally reinforced and leveled condition. 

The homeowner was extremely thrilled with the outcome of the installation, their basement was once again fully transformed into safe and stable state, delivering them with a renewed sense of pride in their beloved home!

A Lanoka Harbor, NJ homeowner was looking for a system that would stabilize and support the first level of their home. They searched the Internet for solutions and came across Quality 1st Basement Systems. System Design Specialist, Joe M. provided a thorough inspection of the crawl space and recommended the SmartJack Crawl Space Support as the best solution. Each SmartJack is made from galvanized steel, preventing from rusting and rotting, thus keeping the floors fully stabilized. 

The horizontal crack in this Lincroft, NJ basement only got worse over time as most foundations problem do. Quality 1st Basement Systems inspected the basement and noticed that the crack spanned almost the entire width of the basement! Wall Anchors were used to repair this foundation crack. Wall anchors are embedded in the soil away from the foundation wall because that soil has not been compromised like the backfill soil around the home. This wall has now been stabilized and will return back to its original position as the Wall Anchors are tightened.

Homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basements when they noticed their chimney started leaning away from the home. We sent Senior Foundation Specialist, Ken Peare, out to design a solution using one of our foundation stabilizer systems. We installed two Helical Piers deep down underneath the foundation and chimney. Using the weight of the home we were able to stabilize the chimney.
