Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Clarksburg, WV, was experiencing severe foundation wall problems and was in desperate need of a permanent solution. Basement walls typically settle due to the soil movement, like softening, wet and dry cycles, poor compaction, or pressure from expanded street concrete!

This particular foundation had major signs of structural failure, including large cracks, weakened support beams, wall shearing, and bowing in some places. The Alford Foundation & Crawl Space Repair team knew just what to do.

We installed the EverBrace Wall Restoration System, a zinc-coated,  heavy-duty steel panel solution that won't rust or corrode, and is built to restore any wall with excessive deterioration. This system acts like a coat of armor and will give the homeowner peace of mind knowing their foundation is sound and secure for the foreseeable future. 

This moisture-ridden basement in Clarksburg, WV, had several problems that needed to be addressed. First, the foundation. Large cracks in the concrete foundation wall were signs of settling and soil movement, leading to structural instability. Secondly, the homeowner had a water intrusion problem. When water and moisture come into contact with wooden materials such as support beams, they will begin to rot, weaken, and deteriorate. Water in a basement can also cause mold, an unpleasant odor, and even health hazards. As foundation and waterproofing experts, we first installed the PowerBrace System, a joist reinforcement method that permanently stabilizes a home's foundation. Then, we added CleanSpace vapor barrier to protect against water and mold growth. Now the basement is much more functional, clean, and dry, a perfect space for these homeowners to rest over the years. 

Barbara F. had a failing foundation that was causing major cracks and sloping in her garage. We installed push piers to stabilize the foundation and a lift and level in the garage to fix all of the cracking. 

The customer had bowing walls in the basement. We added support beams and fixed the issue. 

This home in Anmore was having some serious foundation and water problems. We solved these problems with a StarPipe Drainage System, CleanSpace Wall System, TripleSafe Sump Pump, and PowerBrace Wall Bracing System. This home no longer has bowing foundation walls or a wet basement. It is dry, structurally sound, and protected.
