Before & After Photos

Wall cracks are very common in concrete foundation walls. To solve the problem, you need a solution that can adapt to future wall movements, because products that become rigid will crack again or lose their adhesion to concrete. This process will start again as long as the problem is not resolved with the right solution. The FlexiSpan solution seals the crack and provides a second repair strategy in the event that the sealant fails. FlexiSpan Sealant is a rubber-like liquid that allows the material to adapt to the movement of the crack. It is flexible and will not peel off concrete. It blocks water permanently.

One of our customers in Sorel-Tracy contacted us to do a foundation repair work at his home. Indeed, its foundation walls were bending, which is often a sign of failure that can be caused by various geotechnical and structural factors. To solve this problem, we installed the PowerBrace galvanized steel beams. The beams form a system designed specifically to support the walls of failed foundations and to straighten the walls to their original position over time. The PowerBrace Adjustment System is patented, which proves that it can actually improve the condition of the wall in the long run. Zinc coated, the PowerBrace system resists erosion, reduces abrasion and makes beams non-toxic. Their defined appearance and the galvanized steel covering make the beams less unpleasant to the eye because they will not be attacked by rust. Our system is installed by professionals who will ensure that the connections are made correctly and that the joint reinforcement system distributes the load equitably I a way not to damage your floor! Our patented system stands out from the others and we are very happy to have had the chance to install it at our customer’s place to solve his problem once and for all!

The problem

The foundation walls of Mr. Milette's house cannot endure the pressure of the soil. Two foundation walls were slightly arched towards the interior of the basement with a long horizontal crack in the middle of the walls.

The solution

Support and strengthen the walls!

The solution for our client was the installation of 8 PowerBrace beams as well as the Carbon Armor reinforcement device. PowerBrace beams are a patented device designed to support foundation walls and provide potential straightening over time. It is a permanent and reliable solution. And then the CarbonArmor device was applied in order to reinforce the two cracked and slightly arched walls.

With this solution, Mr. Millette has foundation walls that will not budge.

In Mandeville, QC, a homeowner faced the worry of multiple cracks and unsettling foundation settlement. As you can see in the before photo, the damage was quite alarming. Seeking a reliable solution, they reached out to us. By installing Push Piers, as highlighted in the after photo, we restored the home's stability and peace of mine. Notice the remarkable difference? It's all a part of our promise to provide a solid foundation for your lives and homes.

Problem
