Before & After Photos

Margo noticed her walls were bowing in her basement and she knew she better call up professionals to inspect these serious issues. After her call with Ayers, we sent out a crew and it was decided the PowerBrace Foundation Wall Repair System would be a great solution.

PowerBrace consists of a steel beam that is secured to joists above the wall with steel brackets. This wall repair system will stop any wall movement, ensuring it stays secure in place. This system can straighten the wall and can even be tightened as you desire

Margo is thrilled to have this foundation wall secured as it eases any worries she had about her home's security!

This basement had a severly bowed wall. Horizontal cracking in a wall is often the first sign, but this was beyond that. We installed PowerBraces along the wall in order to help support the home above and prevent the wall from bowing any further. PowerBraces also come with a great tightening feature that can be used during dry periods to gradually tighten and perhaps straighten the wall bringing it back to its original position. The installed powerbraces prior to tightening show the severity of the bowing in the wall. Hopefully the wall can be straightened over time but at the very least, these homeowners can relax knowing that the PowerBraces will keep the the home supported properly and prevent the wall from eventually caving in.

We were called when this homeowner noticed a crack in their basement wall. The buckling wasn't too bad so we installed CarbonArmor to stabilize the wall. CarbonArmor is made of flexible carbon fiber straps that are secured to the wall with a high strength epoxy resin. The carbon fiber straps are 10 times stronger in tension than steel so that your walls will not have anymore movement. 

Evan has a wall in his basement that had a horizontal crack that is 3-4 feet long causing the wall to bow. We used the CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System to stabilize the basement wall. The System is made of flexible carbon fiber straps that are stronger in tension than steel. The straps are bonded to the interior face of the wall using a high strength resin. The CarbonArmor does not require exterior excavation, it installs quickly, and they won't impact future basement finishing.

Jennifer called us becuase she noticed cracking outside her house. Upon insepction, it was determined that the corner of the home was settling. We installed Helical Piers to support the cracking foundation. Helical Piers are great becuase they stabilize the foundation but can also lift settled foundations back up to the original position.
