Before & After Photos

Homeowners in Granville, OH called because one of their basement walls was horizontally cracked and bending inward (or bowing). We sent out one of our certified inspectors, Corey Froelich, to look at the wall, take measurements, and provide a free quote for repair. The homeowners agreed, so our crew, led by foreman Camden Hammond, installed PowerBrace i-beams to prevent further inward movement. These galvanized steel beams can also be tightened over time to push the wall back into its original position.

Foundation walls begin to buckle, bow, or tilt inward from outside pressure from soil and water and can eventually cause foundation walls to collapse. The PowerBrace system is designed to stabilize failing basement walls and can help straighten them over time.

Hidden behind the homeowners things, they discovered a large stairstep crack in their basement wall. We installed static beams to stabilize the foundation of the home. 

A before and after of CarbonArmor strap installation. The CarbonArmor System includes flexible carbon fiber fabric straps that are up to 10 times stronger in tension than steel. Using high strength epoxy resin, the carbon fiber straps are bonded to the interior face of the wall. The straps will stabilize the wall. This system requires no exterior excavation, installs quickly, and won't impact future basement finishing.
