Quality 1st Basement Systems was hired to repair the sagging floors of this home in Toms River, NJ. We installed the SmartJack Crawl Space Support System to provide additional support to the floor joist. Over time, wood beams can shift or sag due to the temperature in the crawl space throughout the year with moisture and humidity. Sagging wood can split causing lack of support to the floor above. Each SmartJack Stabilizer, restores the stability and straightness to the sagging floor joist.
The foundation walls of this Bayville home were bowing and had horizontal cracks. The foundation problems were due to soil outside the home expanding due to soil saturation from heavy rains. The expansion of the soil put pressure on the foundation and caused the bowing walls which created a horizontal crack in the foundation. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed PowerBraces to stabalize the wall and eventually shift it back to its original place. This foundation is now safe and will return back to its original position!

A Howell, NJ homeowner found their basement walls bowing inwards and cracking. We resolved the problem by installing the Carbon Armor Reinforcement System, which stabilizes the bowing walls. Since the installation, the homeowner has not experienced any other foundation issues in their home.
What began as small, almost imperceptible shifts in the basement walls quickly became a source of concern for a Howell, NJ homeowner. Continuous moisture exposure combined with foundation settlement caused noticeable bowing, signaling potential structural issues that could worsen over time. Recognizing the urgency of the situation, the homeowner turned to the trusted experts at Quality 1st to develop a lasting solution that would protect both their home and their peace of mind.
After a detailed inspection of the basement walls, the team crafted a fully customized repair plan tailored to the specific challenges of the space. This plan involved the installation of our patented CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcement System, a high-strength solution engineered to stabilize and secure bowing walls. With CarbonArmor in place, the basement walls were fully reinforced, halting further movement and preventing future cracking.
The homeowner now enjoys a dry, secure, and structurally sound basement, along with renewed confidence in the long-term durability of their home!
