Before & After Photos

With help from our System Design Specialist, Javier and foundation crew lead by Foreman, Wilver, Quality 1st Basement Systems was able to stabilize the bowing foundation walls with CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System. Each strap is installed with a strong epoxy to allow the strap to grip to the wall permanently. This will prevent the wall from bowing inward more. Each bracket above can be adjusted to gradually bring the wall back towards its original position. 

A homeowner in Keyport, NJ knew their home was undergoing some foundation issues when they discovered the walls bowing inwards and a large horizontal cracks forming not too far from the base. Our System Design Specialist, Javier Romero, inspected the walls and knew our Carbon Armor Straps would be able to repair the walls. Our flexible Carbon Armor Straps are attached to the walls with epoxy resin, allowing them to stabilize the wall. The fabric is 10x stronger than steel, so it will not easily tear nor rip. After the installation, the homeowner did not have to worry about their basement walls being further damaged, allowing them to have a peace of mind. 

The homeowner of this Keyport, NJ home discovered their basement wall was bowing inwards. They contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems to find a solution. We provided a thorough inspection of the home and recommended the walls be repaired with the PowerBrace Repair System. PowerBrace is designed to stabilize bowing walls at a more serious stage. Luckily, PowerBrace can prevent the walls from bowing further and potentially straighten them. Since the installation, the homeowner has not experienced any other foundation issues in their home.

We recently assisted this Keyport, NJ, homeowner after they observed signs of structural settlement located in their basement. As a result of this settlement issue, walls were beginning to crack and the owner feared for the safety of their homes structural integrity.

Once our team arrived at the home we were able to install our specially crafted WaterGuard French Drainage System, in order to create a clear channel for water to enter and exit towards the owners designated sump pump. Next the team installed our heavy-duty CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System in order to entirely strengthen and stabilize the weakened walls.

From now on, structural settlement is a worry of the past for this homeowner, allowing them to finally enjoy some much needed peace of mind!
