Before & After Photos

Our customer contacted Complete Basement Systems after a home inspection was done on her home regarding the foundation wall bowing.  Our system design specialist designed a solution to prevent future wall movement.  

These homeowners in Hector, MN called us with some water intrusion and bowing walls in their basement. When walls are bowing in, it is usually due to hydrostatic pressure from too much water building up against the outside of the walls, or the soil that is around your property swells and exerts pressure that forces the foundation wall inward. Bowed or leaning walls can cause very serious structural damage if not corrected.

After discussing the options available with the homeowners, it was decided we would install our PowerBrace Wall Support System to permanently stabilize the walls. These beams are custom-fit to your basement height and tightly secured against the wall with brackets that are anchored to the basement floor below and first-floor framing above. The braces are tightened over time, slowly pushing the wall back to the correct positition.

We also installed an UltraSump3, WaterGuard drain system and discharge with IceGuard. This will ensure a dry, safe basement for these homeowners.

This home in Blue Earth, MN won't have to worry about bowing walls any longer with our warranty-backed power brace system.

This Blue Earth home had moisture issues and the homeowners noticed that the foundation walls were buckling. The homeowners had been doing research on options on how to fix the problem. We were happy when they stopped by our office to talk about the problem and we set them up with a FREE inspection and estimate.

Our System Design Specialist Ryan went to evaluate the situation. Together they concluded a perimeter drain tile system, new sump pump system and foundation support was needed to permanently protect their home.

WaterGuard was installed along the perimeter of the foundation to keep ground water from seeping through the floor and work with a new SuperSump Pump System to discharge water out of the basement.  PowerBrace zinc coated beams were installed on the block foundation walls to prevent further wall buckling.
