Before & After Photos

This homeowner's foundation was bowing and shifting, creating an unstable home. Cleveland Basement Systems installed the GeoLock wall anchor system to stop wall failure in its tracks. GeoLock is installed through the foundation and into stable soil in order to permanently stabilize the foundation wall. 

Our expert installers at Cleveland Basement Systems installed the GeoLock system in order to stabilize this bowing basement wall. GeoLock utilizes the stable soil outside of the home to relieve pressure from the wall. Once done installing, our crew makes sure to correctly backfill the dirt to cover the job site. 

This Sandusky homeowner was experiencing sagging floors in her home. We were able to solve this problem by installing SmartJacks! SmartJacks are fully adjustable steel support posts that support weak beams and bring sagging floors back up to where they need to be. 

This home is now structurally sound and the homeowner is so glad her floors no longer sink when she walks on them!

This customer noticed the addition on his home was sinking year after year. The addition was built on poorly compacted soil, resulting in settlement. Cleveland Basement Systems installed heliacal piers on either side of the addition in order to permanently stabilize it. Helical piers have helix-shaped blades welded to the shaft that allow them to be mechanically screwed into the ground. The before picture shows how the crew prepped the foundation for the piers. Installers then used specialized hydraulic equipment to drill the piers into the ground and attach steel foundation brackets  to the foundation's footing. Through the helical piers, the weight of the addition is transferred onto load-bearing soils below the surface. Helical piers are a great solution to stabilizing a lighter structure, like additions, that have settled. This customer can have peace of mind that their home is structurally supported. 

A rusty support was causing an unstable basement in Wellington, OH. To fix this, we installed the SmartJack system which has a zinc-plated, galvanized steel design that will not corrode. SmartJack immediately lifted the sagging beam and stabilized the home!
