Providing Foundation Repairs and Concrete Lifting in Browns Mills. Professional Crawl Space and Basement Waterproofing

At Quality 1st, we recently had the pleasure of helping a homeowner from Browns Mills, NJ, who reached out with worries about her home's stability. She noticed troubling signs that her home, built in 1970 with a crawl space underneath, was in need of some serious attention. Her kitchen floor was sagging, and there were visible cracks in the walls: a clear signal that the structure needed expert assessment and repair to make her family's living space safe and comfortable again. A Specialist from our Sales Team visited the home to understand the dynamics of the issues at hand. Upon thorough examination, it was evident that the crawlspace beneath the home was directly impacting the house's integrity, requiring immediate support to arrest further damage. Our recommendation of CleanSpace and SmartJack systems was aimed at addressing not just the symptoms but the cause. CleanSpace, a potent foundation to bar moisture and pave the way for a stronger framework, alongside SmartJacks, a reliable stabilizing solution, were key to reviving the home’s foundation and crawl space, instilling leakage resilience, and pemitting uplifting results wherever needed. 

There are a number of problems that can arise in a home's basement or crawl space due to water damage or foundation weaknesses. The systems Quality 1st installs to resolve these issues are specifically geared towards the individual needs of each home. While foundation restoration and waterproofing systems are very different types of installations for two different types of problems, the roots of these problems are closely related - water. We can install a foundation repair system in a home, but that doesn't prevent or protect against water damage, which is usually what caused the foundation problems in the first place. Such was the case for this crawl space  in a Browns Mills, NJ home. Our crew had previously installed a foundation repair system to fix the bowing floors of this home, but unfortunately that did not prevent moisture from getting in and doing more damage. 

Our Service Technician Thomas went out to the customer's home to assess how we could further help resolve the damage facing their home's foundation. Their crawl space was suffering from moisture that was still present and weakening the space. Foreman Mario and our crew went out to the home for an encapsulation installation that could best protect the crawl space. Our EverLast Crawl Space Door and Vent Covers were installed to block off outside air and moisture from getting into the crawl space. Drainage Matting was lined along the floor of the crawl space, lying just beneath the  CleanSpace Vapor Barrier that was installed to encapsulate the crawl space. This pairing allows for water to be trapped behind the vapor barrier and flow along the drainage matting into the sump pump. The crawl space was then insulated with our SilverGlo Insulation Panels to regulate the temperature in the crawl space, and equipped with our Sedona Humidifier for maximum moisture control. With these installations, this crawl space is no longer vulnerable to water damage threatening the home's structure.

Quality 1st's services were able to provide this customer with another resolution in protecting and strengthening their home. Our crew of experts left the crawl space clean, dry, temperature-controlled, and supported - what more could a homeowner ask for!

A homeowner in Browns Mills, NJ was displeased to find that water was coming into his basement, causing some damage to the finished basement walls.  The homeowner, Robert M., contacted Quality 1^st Basement Systems as they offered no-obligation free inspections and estimates by certified waterproofing specialists. 

After completion of a thorough interior and exterior inspection of the basement by waterproofing specialist Ken Peare, he determined the best solution to the water problems that Robert was experiencing and came up with an ideal plan.  He carefully explained his findings and waterproofing plans to Robert, and provided a free estimate for the waterproofing products and work.  Robert was ready to have his basement repaired so that the space would be drier and healthier.

A crew (headed by Project Manager Jonathan Neira) went to Browns Mills, NJ to fix this homeowner’s basement.  They installed a full-perimeter WaterGuard, designed to channel and direct any water seepage to a sump pump system.  Additionally, the crew installed Everlast Wall to restore the water-damaged portion of the wall with mold-resistant finished wall panels. 

 Quality 1st Basement Systems helped to create a drier basement for Robert and provided a permanent solution for the damaged walls. Robert was pleased to regain comfortable use of the basement space.
