Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This slab outside of a Plainsboro, NJ home was experiencing an inch and a half of settlement and became a trip hazard to the homeowners. The Quality 1st crew was able to lift the sunken and settled concrete by using the Polyurethane Injection System. Installation took less than a day and the homeowner and his family were able to walk on it a few minutes after install.

An unfinished basement in Manville, New Jersey had bowing walls and a large crack in the foundation. The floor dropped 1/4 of an inch, and the homeowner needed Quality 1st Basement System's help. Inspector Kenny Tramutola determined that the best solution was to push piers to lift the basement floor and stabilize the walls. A foundation bracket was installed against the footing and piers were driven into the foundation bracket and the soil. It then lifted the structure using high-strength steel. Push piers are strong with high capacity loads and galvanized steel. Now this basement will not bow and the walls are stable and safe.

A homeowner in Kendall Park, NJ was faced with foundation issues threatening their home's stability. Noticeable cracks along the basement walls were signs of pressure pushing against the foundation that, if left unresolved, could result in a complete wall collapse. Our expert team at Quality 1st was able to provide a noninvasive and preventative installation to solve the problem. CarbonArmor strips were bonded to the faulty foundation walls with a high-strength epoxy resin that reinforces and stabilizes the wall. With just these strips placed along the walls, our services restored this home's stability and the homeowner's peace of mind.
