A homeowner in Glen Rock, New Jersey had cracks in their basement walls and contacted Quality 1st for a solution. Our System Design Specialist inspected the basement walls and noticed the cracking. To prevent the wall from cracking more and stabilize it, CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System was installed on the walls. CarbonArmor contains strips that are made from a reinforced polymer that is 10 times stronger than steel. The strips are attached to the wall and secured with heavy-duty steel brackets. The straps will stabilize the wall and begin to pull it back to its original position. CarbonArmor installs quickly and will not impact future basement finishing.

A homeowner in Waldwick, NJ noticed their floors were sagging, so they contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems. Our System Design Specialist, Steve R., inspected the home and discovered the cause, of the problem, was due to a damp and humid crawl space beneath the home. Dampness and humidity cause wood rot to the main crawl space beams, which causes the floors to sag. We resolved the issue by installing our SmartJack System, which supports the crawl space beam, and straightens the floors. The homeowner was very happy with the results.
