We recently assisted this Branchburg, NJ, homeowner who was increasingly concerned about the bowing walls in their basement, fearing that foundation settlement was causing structural instability. The walls had begun to show visible signs of stress, creating cracks and further bowing over time, which left the homeowner anxious about the long-term effects on their home.
After contacting Quality 1st Basement Systems, a thorough inspection revealed that the pressure from the surrounding soil was the primary culprit behind the bowing walls. The team recommended installing our specially patented CarbonArmor Reinforcing System, which uses high-strength carbon fiber straps to stabilize and reinforce the walls. The installation process was quick and non-invasive, requiring no excavation, and the carbon fiber system provided a permanent solution to the problem.
With our CarbonArmor system in place, the homeowner’s basement was fully restored to a dry, stable, and pleasant condition, eliminating the risks associated with foundation settlement and providing lasting peace of mind!

A Columbus, NJ resident was interested in waterproofing options when they finally had enough with the water concerns in their unfinished basement. Our System Design Specialist, Greg Louis, met with the homeowner and provided them with a full inspection. He noticed multiple signs of water entry by where the wall and floor met. He also noticed the space was very damp and musty. He recommended our TripleSafe Sump pump as a permanent solution to keep this large basement dry. Foreman, Mario Barron, installed the full perimeter system in the basement.
A Columbus, New Jersey resident had an old and failing sump pump system. Their current sump pump was not properly protecting this basement. It was not sealed or enclosed, which could cause water evaporation to get into the basement and cause mold. They called Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Greg Louis, suggested they install a new sump pump. Our foreman, Mario Barron, replaced the old sump pump with the TripleSafe Sump Pump System. This system has an airtight lid and will keep the basement dry and protected by draining out the water away from the home.
