Before & After Photos

Horizontal cracking along the basement wall was causing structural issues to the home. This type of cracking means that the foundation is either settled or moving. Cleveland Basement Systems installed CarbonArmor in order to prevent further bowing and bending. Carbon fiber is a high tinsel strength material that is almost impossible to stretch. CarbonArmor is 10 times stronger in tension than steel and is specifically made to stabilize basement walls. 

Sagging beams in his rental property prompted this Cleveland homeowner to give us a call. We solved his problem by installing SmartJacks. SmartJacks are designed to both stabilize floors and lift them back up to where they are supposed to be. These fully adjustable steel support posts provide a customized fit in each home they are installed in.

This home is now structurally sound and the floors are no longer sinking. Are you having problems in your basement or crawl space? Call Cleveland Basement Systems today to schedule your FREE inspection and quote!

CarbonArmor straps were applied to this cracking, shifting wall in order to stabilize it. CarbonArmor utilizes high-strength carbon straps bonded directly to the wall using industrial epoxy, creating a 10x stronger-than-steel reinforcement. 

The SmartJack Stabilizing System provided sound peace of mind to this homeowner. These adjustable, galvanized steel beams can handle over 60,000 pounds and will not corrode over time. 

This homeowner knew there were problems going on in her basement. It was always wet and a horizontal crack had formed across one of the walls. We stabilized the basement with a CarbonArmor. These stronger than steel straps adhere to the wall and the ArmorLock brackets are secured to the floor joists in order to secure the foundation wall. We waterproofed the space by installing a WaterGuard Interior Drainage System, SuperSump Sump Pump, and IceGuard attachment. 

This basement is now secured and protected from water, permanently!
