Before & After Photos

Severe bowing wall in cambridge straightened by using Power braces. Also see case syudy with more photos 

Cayuga area is famous for bad soil conditions. Omni likes to call it "Haldimand Clay" When there is a wall crack in a poured foundation in this area, Our reps have to determine whether it is just a waterproofing job or it needs some structural attention as well. 

In this case, the crack was large enough and had some deflection in the wall as well that Phill recommended some carbon Armor stitches before waterproofing. The Carbon Armor stitch is Carbon Fibre fabrick which is epoxied to the wall across the crack to strengthen the wall from futher bowing (deflection) 

In these photos, the before and after the carbon armor is applied. They do not show the final waterproofing membrane applied over top. 

Sara in New Hamburg has a home with a badly bowing wall. She hired Omni Basement Systems to straighten this wall and also have some waterproofing done. 

Christina has a bowing wall in her Kitchener basement. Omni Basement Systems straightened her wall over time with the Powerbrace system from Supportworks. 
The Powerbrace is a system containing of 4" galvanized beams and brackets top and bottom the connect the beam to the footing and the floor joist system of the home. 
There is a large tension bolt that can be adjusted to straighten the wall over time. 
Under the window, Carbon fiber is adhered to give that area extra strength. 

 Greg has a home with a poured foundation wall that has some serious cracking. The concern is that it may be structural related. 

Omni Basement Systems used our very own Carbon Armor system from Supportworks to strengthen the wall so it will not tip in or bow. 

The Carbon Armor are 7" wide Carbon fiber strips that are epoxied to the wall. Also there are carbon armor straps that lock the wall to the floor joist system via the rim joist.
