Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Quality 1st Basement Systems was contacted by a homeowner in Cliffwood, NJ about a foundation concern. The homeowner noticed the first level of their home was sagging, so they needed to find a solution. We provided a thorough inspection of the home and noticed the main problem was the weakened crawl space beams. We installed the SmartJack System, which supports sagging crawl space beams. Since the installation, the floors had not sagged, thus restoring the homeowner's peace of mind.

Do you have sagging floors above your crawlspace in your home? Take a look at our SmartJack System; it is designed to straighten and strengthen sagging floors over crawlspace foundations in any home.

Settlement under a house in Manahawkin, NJ has been fixed with the installation of our SmartJack support System.

Our Senior Foreman Victor and his team stabilized this home with our CarbonArmor System. First, they prepared the wall surface by sanding away the paint so that the epoxy resin would bond to the concrete. Once the straps adhered to the wall, The ArmorLock bracket was connected. Another coat of epoxy resin was applied to completely secure the strip. Rest assured that the CarbonArmor and ArmorLock Systems will immediately stabilize your foundation walls and permanently protect against any further inward movement.

A resident in Manahawkin, New Jersey noticed their floors were sagging and becoming bouncy. The cause of this could be from the existing columns being spaced too far apart, or they have settled. If these columns are spaced too far apart, the beam can become overloaded and sag between the columns. Weak soil can also cause the columns to sink or settle, creating a gap between the top of the column and the bottom of the girder.

The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems, and our System Design Specialist, Steve Ventriglio, provided an inspection of the home. He suggested they use a steel support system to stabilize and level the girders and floor joists. Our foreman, Jonathan Neira, used the SmartJack Support System in the crawl space. This system does not replace the existing columns, but they add strength and stability to what is there. These are installed by digging out a hole where the SmartJacks will go. Then, high strength galvanized steel tubing is assembled and connected to the support beam and the SmartJack System is tightened into place. The support beam and floor joists are immediately stabilized and the above floors can be lifted back toward level.
