Before & After Photos

This customer owned this rental property that was experiencing bowing walls in the basement. They knew they had to fix this issue for several reasons: to protect their investment, prevent further damage to the home, and avoid having to displace a tenant if the walls were to collapse.

Mike Portal, a System Design Specialist at Thrasher Foundation Repair, went out to the home to conduct an inspection. He found that the walls were bowing in, and each foundation wall was in various stages of wall failure. 

To solve this problem, we installed PowerBraces. This system is made from galvanized steel beams that will not rust and will straighten the walls with time. In just two days, the Thrasher Foundation Repair team secured and stabilized all walls in the basement. This was especially crucial for the homeowner to make sure we weren't invading the tenant's space for an extended period of time.

This customer was grateful we were able to save the failing foundation walls and felt the Thrasher Foundation Repair team went above and beyond to exceed expectations.

During an annual service appointment Service Technician Ryan Allen was able to identify foundation problems in Daryl B.’s home. During the inspection Ryan was able to show Daryl increasing wall failure and deflection. This led to a conversation about how to stop the wall failure from getting worse and permanent solutions to save the walls.

Due to moving soils and water issues, there was pressure on the walls which was leading to wall failure. The crew installed PowerBraces, which are galvanized I-beams that are securely fastened to concrete basement floors and attached to the joists, fully stabilizing the foundation walls from shifting ever again. Daryl B. was extremely pleased with this solution to prevent future issues.

By scheduling annual maintenance appointments, we were able to detect a problem and come up with a solution that led to earlier detection and cost savings.

This homeowner called us to address their basement wall because It seemed to be bending inward. When we inspected the wall we saw that it was in stage 2 wall failure. To fix this, we installed wall anchors because the customer couldn't use PowerBraces due to the stairs being very close to the wall. 

Homeowner Tjode notice that his home was experiencing wall failure and wanted to use someone that could explain what was needed to repair.

We sent System Design Specialist, Tyler, to the home to provide a same-day free estimate.  We stabilized the wall with Powerbraces to prevent the wall from failing and further damage to the foundation.  The customer was very happy with our process from free estimate to completion.

Our EverBrace wall restoration system is a less disruptive alternative to total foundation replacement. EverBrace uses steel corrugated panels and beams that work together to stabilize your foundation walls.  This basement now has the support needed for years to come!
