Instead of leaving this issue unacknowledged the owner decided to call in the help of our concrete repair professionals.

After receiving an extensive analysis from our talented system design specialist Jeffrey, we were able to supply the owner with the most essential solution to meet their needs. Next our foreman Ash and his crew arrived at the home and began installing our specially patented PolyLevel Foam Injections. This product will provide the foundation of the walkway with the stabilization it desperately needs while also entirely lifting and restoring the concrete slabs to their original surface height.

A homeowner in Old Bridge, NJ discovered cracks forming on their basement walls. Since they did not want this issue to worsen, the homeowner needed to find a solution. After asking their neighbors who to contact, the homeowner was referred to Quality 1st Basement Systems. 

After a quick phone call, the homeowner scheduled an appointment for our System Design Specialist, Dylan McDonald, to come to the home and inspect the basement walls.

After fully inspecting the walls, Dylan recommended our CarbonArmor Strips would be the perfect solution for the homeowner. Our Carbon Armor Strips are designs to secure the cracks in place, sealing any water that seeps through the walls. The homeowner agreed and scheduled another appointment for the installation.

He lived in a development where there were a lot of trees, so he thought it might be a good idea to install a protector as well.

Rich H. in Old Bridge Township, NJ was preparing his pool for the upcoming swim season.  His pool company discussed the sinking concrete slabs around the pool that were a tripping hazard and suggested that the homeowner contact Quality 1^st Basement Systems to help with repairs.

A PolyLEVEL professional met with Rich to inspect the pool area and to explain the PolyLEVEL process.  He described how structural grade polymers are injected beneath the slabs through small holes to lift and stabilize them.  The material, less porous than concrete, would not wash out or deteriorate.  Additionally, PolyLEVEL cures within 15 minutes so there would be no extended wait to walk in the area. 

Rich H. was thankful for the referral from his pool company; he knew they sent him to the best professionals to fix the sinking slabs.  Quality 1^st Basement Systems is pleased to have removed the tripping hazard for the homeowner, all in time to begin the summer swim festivities!    

A couple from Old Bridge Township were visiting a local Golf Show when they came across the Quality 1^st Basement Systems’ booth.  Recognizing that they were experiencing some of the waterproofing and foundation problems handled by Quality 1^st, they followed up afterward by calling for a free estimate.

Basement Design Specialist Kenny Tramutola completed a thorough inspection of the basement.  He found signs of water intrusion and observed that the horizontal crack and bowing wall needed attention.  First, Kenny proposed installation of a waterproofing system which included a full perimeter WaterGuard, a TripleSump sump pump, an IceGuard, a LawnScape Outlet, and BrightWall Paneling.   Water seepage through the basement walls would move to the WaterGuard and be directed to the sump pump system.  The TripleSump includes an efficient primary pump, a back-up pump (in case the first one fails or if there is a need for extra pumping power), and a third battery-operated pump (designed to kick in if the power goes out).  The TripleSafe would pump water out of the basement and would be prevented from causing a flood in winter months (if the discharge line freezes) by inclusion of an IceGuard.  The LawnScape Outlet would help disperse the drainage on the lawn.  Lastly, the BrightWall Panels would brighten up the basement area while providing a barrier to water vapor.

Additionally, Kenny needed to address the issue of the cracked and bowing wall.  He proposed the low-profile design CarbonArmor System (which is stronger than concrete and is specifically designed for basement walls) in conjunction with ArmorLock Anchorage System to stop inward movement of the wall. 

Quality 1^st Basement Systems was happy to install these two systems to alleviate the Old Bridge couple’s concerns about water in the basement and a failing foundation wall.   The efficient waterproofing system would prevent seepage from damaging the basement space by directing it out of the home and the revolutionary wall straps and anchoring would provide a secure, stable foundation.  The couple could breathe a sigh of relief now that their basement and foundation worries were resolved.
