Quality 1st Basement Systems Before & After Photos

A homeowner from Monroe, NJ was experiencing concrete settlement of about 3/4 of an inch in front of their garage. They contacted Quality 1st Basements about their concrete settlement and inquired about PolyLevel. PolyLevel, a concrete lifting and leveling solution, was a perfect choice for the homeowner because it was less expensive and less of a hassle than replacing each slab. The homeowner could park their cars on their driveway about 15 minutes after injection. 

The basement wall had a large crack that was allowing water to seep through. Since concrete naturally shrinks, you need a system that will work with the movement of the wall.  We recommended FlexiSpan as the perfect solution for these types of situations. 

FlexiSpan is a flexible sealant, made up of open-cell foam and waterproof sealant. The entire crack is sealed and designed to move to make sure the crack is permanently sealed. 

A homeowner in Monroe Township noticed the steps to the main entry way were sinking. After booking a Free estimate with our appointment center, System Design Specialist Andy Gagliardi went out to the home and inspect the unleveled area. Andy did notice the sinking concrete steps from a distance, he explained that over time the soil beneath becomes too wet or dry causing settlement.

Foreman Victor Leon and his team went out to lift and level the concrete steps. The team first drilled small holes into the slab to pump in a Polyurethane foam that allows the concrete to be lifted and leveled back into its original state. In less than 15 minutes the steps were ready to be walked on again.

This Monroe, NJ homeowner has been a customer of ours since 2015. Each year our service team comes out and performs routine annual maintenance where the Service Technician will not only clean out each pump and the liner but also flood test the entire system. 

This Monroe, NJ homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems after discovering multiple home issues including uneven floors, doors and windows not fitting into their place, and cracks on their basement walls. Our System Design Specialist, Mike Fiorillo, inspected the home and found that the foundation was in need stabilization, so he recommended out Helical Piers would be able to raise the foundation and fully stabilize it. Once the piers are installed and the foundation is lifted and stabilized, the team backfills to cover the system.
