Quality 1st Basement Systems Before & After Photos

A Red Bank, NJ homeowner noticed their basement wall was bowing inwards and wanted to have a professional out to inspect the interior and exterior of their homes foundation. Fearful that their homes structure was moving, they contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems to meet with one of our Foundation System Design Specialists. jack Huber, met with the Red Bank family, and performed a full inspection of the entre foundation. He measured the movement of the basement walls, noted each crack that he discovered and then presented the family with his discovery and solution! 

He recommended installing the Carbon Armor Reinforcement System, which stabilizes bowing basement walls. Carbon Armor is applied to the wall with a strong epoxy so that it adheres to the wall permanently. These straps stop beginning stages of movement, securing the foundation walls into place and preventing future movement from hydrostatic pressure on the opposite side. 

In Manchester, MD, a homeowner was dealing with water seeping into their basement through an old window, which created damp conditions and raised concerns about potential damage, mold, and air quality. Seeking a permanent solution, they contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems, and our team quickly went to work.

First, we installed our WaterGuard Drainage System around the basement perimeter to capture and direct the water away from the foundation. Next, to address the specific issue with the window area, we added our WellDuct System to channel water from the window well into the drainage system, preventing further moisture buildup. Additionally, we installed our RockWell Egress Window to seal the entry point and protect against future water intrusion, improving both safety and ventilation.

Together, these systems restored the basement to a dry, stable, and healthy environment, giving the homeowner peace of mind knowing their basement is now fully protected!

This Ellicott City customer had a finished basement and they were looking to brighten up the space naturally. A great way to do so is with an Egress Window. We came out and installed out a 48x48 Slider Egress Window with a 48x66x48 Rockwell and Rockwell Cover.

In this basement in Ellicott City, MD, the owner was looking to get more light into the lower part of the home and a safer way out incase of emergencies. On the outside of the home we excavated soil down to the foundation of the home in order for us to install our Egress RockWell. This one piece design will seal out moisture and will never corrode or deteriorate keeping this install reliable overtime. 

This customer wanted to finish their basement but first wanted to take care of replacing their leaking window. Since they were going to finish the basement, they decided not to replace the window with just another standard basement window but instead with an Egress. Egress windows allow in a lot of natural light and are also a means for a fast and safe exit during an emergency.

We installed a 48 x 48 Slider Egress window along with a 48" RockWell and Well Cover.
