Before, the photo depicts a bowing concrete block wall in the homeowner's basement located in Petersburg—a common foundation problem affecting structural integrity. Without water intrusion issues, this kind of wall failure still threatens safety and reduces property value. To address it, Liberty Basement Systems installed our durable PowerBrace™ system. Notice in the after photo how our zinc-plated steel beams provide essential support. Anchored securely from the basement floor to first-floor framing, this patented foundation repair solution not only stabilizes the wall but also offers potential reversibility without drilling or digging.
Initially, this Mercersburg, PA home faced severe foundation troubles. The heavy rainfall had caused the basement wall to push in, creating a significant water entry problem, as evident in the 'before' image. To resolve these issues, we implemented a comprehensive solution using our PowerBrace™ System, which stabilized the compromised walls, potentially reversing their inward movements—a remedy visible in the 'after' shot. Alongside this, we installed the TripleSafe™ Sump Pump and the WaterGuard® system to ensure effective water management, transforming the basement into a resilient, dry space.
A bowing foundation wall prompted this Fort Loudon homeowner to get in touch with us. They were understandably concerned about their foundation, but were very happy to find that we could help solve their problem. We installed a GeoLock Wall Anchor System to secure this leaning foundation wall. This system transfers the weight of the foundation to nearby soil in order to stabilize the failing wall.
This home is now structurally sound and the homeowner can breathe easy once again!

Cracked and bowing walls were an issue in this basement. We installed a PowerBrace Wall System to stabilize it. The PowerBrace System is made from steel I-beams that are installed tightly against the foundation walls and anchored to the floor joists. This foundation is now secure and the homeowner is so relieved!
