Before & After Photos

This retaining wall in Winston-Salem was showing major symptoms of failure, including spreading cracks and outward bowing caused by soil pressure. Left untreated, the wall could have collapsed and threatened the surrounding property. To solve the issue, our team installed GeoLock wall anchors, which permanently stabilize the wall by tying it back into stable soil. This solution stops further movement and helps restore the wall’s structural integrity, ensuring long-term protection for the home.

In this Winston-Salem, NC home, the basement wall was showing signs of inward movement and bowing a common issue caused by soil pressure and moisture around the foundation. Our team installed GeoLock Wall Anchors, a permanent stabilization system engineered to stop further movement and help straighten the wall over time.

In the first photo, you can see the wall before the anchors were installed. The second photo shows the completed installation with the GeoLock plates securely fastened along the wall. These anchors work by extending into stable soil outside the home and applying counter-pressure to the failing foundation wall, restoring strength and safety to the space.

When problems with the foundation of this home occurred, the change in pressure and support resulted in cracking walls. These type of block walls, when the home starts to shift, crack easily and after we supported the foundation with piers, we were able to lift the home and release the pressure. This lift closed the cracked wall and released the stress put on it.

Using our GeoLock Wall Anchor System, our team permanently stabilized this homeowners buckling and cracked foundation wall. 

We installed our SmartJack support system to stabilize this homeowner's crawl space because it provides reliable support to prevent sagging floors and structural damage, ensuring the long-term stability and safety of the home.
