Foundation Repair in Cooperstown, ND

A male homeowner in Cooperstown, ND had cracked foundation walls in his basement, and he wanted to get them fixed before they cracked any further. He knew of our Design Specialist, Richie, so they discussed some possible solutions with each other, and Richie proposed our Foundation Repair Wall Anchor System. The homeowner got all of his questions answered about the product, its functions, etc., so he signed Richie's proposal and got a date on his schedule for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Ryan, and his crew began the anchor installation by digging holes outside of the home beyond the foundation. From the interior foundation, our crew inserted a long, metal rod to each hole beyond the foundation. Once each anchor is connected to the metal rod, the pressure is clamped, which straightens the wall back into its original position. Our wall anchors can be installed year-round, they have a 25-year warranty, it provides very little damage to the home, and does not damage interior floors. To complete the installation, our team backfilled each hole, compacted the soil, and ensured the yard space was neater than when they found it. The homeowner was happy with the work that was completed and had a great experience!
