Before & After Photos

If bowing walls are caught early enough, we can stop them in their tracks with a material that feels as light as a feather in your hand!

For this lucky customer, we did just that! Carbon Fiber Wall Straps are up to 10x stronger than steel, unobtrusive, and easy to work around when finishing your home! 

This homeowner had serious problems with their foundation walls rotting which affected the structure of their house. Many people and contractors often just try to fix the wood rot without dealing with the main issue. In this case, too much moisture and humidity caused mold to grow and the wood to deteriorate.  We used a combination of sealing and dehumidifying methods to control the moisture. Our team installed a vapor barrier in the crawl space and a self-draining dehumidifier to remove extra moisture and prevent damage in the future.

This customer had a dirt crawlspace that was causing problems like moisture, cold air, warm air, and bugs getting into their home. To fix this, we used CleanSpace encapsulation and drainage matting. The CleanSpace was attached to the walls with special wall anchors to keep out moisture and other things from outside. It was also installed on the dirt floor to stop moisture from the soil and groundwater. The drainage matting helped with the waterproofing too. We suggested installing a sump pump or smart drain to remove any water that might come in. With the combination of smart drains, drainage matting, CleanSpace, and sump pumps, the homeowner now has a protected and safe crawlspace that can be used for storage without worry.

This homeowner just bought his new home and he was excited to start his first project of finishing the basement. When he went down to the basement to start working, he noticed that there were cracks in the walls which set off a worry about the home's structure and potential water damage. In his old home, he had used our services for foundation repair, so he decided to give us a call for a free inspection just to be safe and calm his worries.

We sent Service Technician Joe Rebik to inspect the homeowner's new basement to determine if there was any structural concern shown from the wall cracks. Joe found that there was a high level of hydrostatic pressure on the walls and that the walls were starting to move inwards, which is what caused the cracks to start showing and water to start seeping in. In order to fix this problem and help the homeowner to finish his basement, Joe designed a comprehensive structural and waterproofing system to fix all of the basement problems.

One of our installation teams came to this home and implemented this plan by utilizing PowerBraces to support the walls and push them back over time. After that, they started on waterproofing by installing a full perimeter WaterGuard Interior Drainage System and a full height CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to effectively drain water into a new Super Sump Pump that gets water up and away from the basement. The homeowner was very happy with the basement and he is excited to finish it now without worries. Check out these before and after pictures!

This homeowner recently faced the challenge of bowing basement walls. Our solution for this is the PowerBrace wall system. This system supports walls damaged by external hydrostatic pressure that causes them to buckle, bow, and crack. By utilizing steel I-beams, the PowerBrace securely stabilizes the walls, preventing any shifting of the soil that could impact the foundation. PowerBraces can be adjusted over time to not only stabilize the walls but potentially return them to their original position.
