Reverse GeoLock Wall Anchors to Secure Outwardly Bowing Wall
The home was such that it had a walkout back area of a garage where the floor profile was above ground. This allowed for the wall to bow outwardly. Rebuilding was an option, but reverse GeoLock Anchors were 1/10h of the cost and worked nicely. We elected for our outer plate to be pieces of manufacturer channel to better secure the wall as it was comprised of brick.
GeoLock® Wall Anchors are designed to repair walls that are sliding inwards, tilting at the top, bowing, and buckling. These wall anchors are made of galvanized steel for a long-lasting solution that will prevent any further inward movement of your walls.
Wall anchors work by extending from your wall to the stable, hard packed soil beyond your home. They anchor into these stronger soils and brace the foundation wall, preventing further movement. Wall anchors are installed with minimal disruption to your lawn, and they won't damage the interior of your basement or take up usable space. In fact, GeoLock® Wall Anchors can easily be concealed by our Hide-A-Way® covers for a clean finished appearance.

Sinking Foundation Reinforced from the Basement
In some cases we have to open up the floor in order to see where the best place to pier will be.
Galvanized Foundation Push Pier Installation in Weirton, WV
Our foundation Push Pier System was used to lift and stabilize this customers sinking foundation by hydraulically driving the piers into the ground. The weight of the structure is then transferred from the unstable soil, to the foundation brackets, through the piers, and to firm load bearing soil or bedrock. Once the pier has stabilized the structure, the backfill is used to cover the system to leave a clean appearance.
