Before & After Photos

A Jersey City, NJ homeowner was interested in adding some extra support for their crawl space, so they contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems for a solution. We installed the SmartJack Crawl Space Support System as the best solution. Since the installation, the homeowner has not experienced any other floor problems in their home.

System Design Specialist, Kenny T. designed a solution for the sagging floor joist in the basement of this Jersey City home. Our team installed 3 SmartJack XT braces to immediately stabilize the floors above. 

Quality 1st Basement Systems was contacted by this homeowner in Jersey City, New Jersey due to their foundation wall becoming unstable and bowing inwards. Our System Design Specialist, Dane Cuccinello, provided an inspection and suggested they install a wall reinforcement system. This will allow the walls to become stable and safe. Our foreman arrived a few days later and installed our Carbon Armor Wall Reinforcement System. CarbonArmor is a long-lasting and durable system that's ten times stronger than steel. It's intended to stabilize the foundation walls and is applied to the wall with epoxy resin. When the job was complete, the homeowner was happy to see their walls were stabilized!

This homeowner in Ocean Gate, NJ noticed some structural instability in their crawl space due to the moisture present. They called Quality 1st Basements for a free estimate. One of our System Design Specialists recommended SmartJacks and a vent cover.

SmartJack support posts were installed to permanently stabilize and lift the sagging beams back into place, restoring the strength and level of their floors above. To further protect the space, the crew sealed the open vents with durable crawl space vent covers, keeping out moisture, pests, and cold air. Now, the homeowner have a stronger, healthier home from the ground up with even floors, improved comfort, and a cleaner crawl space environment.

Foundation Design Specialist Steve Ventriglio met with this customer to propose a reliable solution for a failing foundation. With a slight bowing of the concrete block basement wall and horizontal cracking, reinforcement of the wall with CarbonArmor straps seemed the best solution, a low profile fix that gets bonded to the wall with a relatively quick install as no exterior excavation is neeeded. Foreman Esau Aquino and his crew installed the state-of-the-art straps to stabilize the foundation.
