Before & After Photos

The rotted wooden beam was replaced with a large format steel beam.

In Warrendale, PA, one homeowner was concerned as their foundation began to show troubling wall movement, risking their peace of mind and property value. As you can see in the photo, the foundation needed urgent attention. We stepped in with our top-tier GeoLock Wall Anchor solution, expertly installed to secure the wall and protect it from further inward movement. The after photo showcases a stable, reliable structure. We restored stability and calm for this homeowner – illustrating our commitment to redefining contractor expertise by safeguarding dreams, homes, and futures within one unique community.

The wall in question was removed and replaced.

It is never good to have a bowed or collapsing basement foundation wall, but it is even worse when the basement is finished.  Some contractors who are not experts in foundation repair require the entire finished wall to be removed in order to repair it, but an expert firm like Keystone Basement Systems, Inc may be able to make more precise cuts to reinforce the wall while keeping a good portion of the finished wall in tact.  This way, the restoration cost is far less than if the wall had been removed completely. 

CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcement System is a thin as two dimes and provide strength 14-times stronger than steel in tension.  In the pictures you can see we made vertical cuts and installed the straps so that the wall can easily be repaired and painted.  Moreover, we have crack monitors so we can keep an eye on smaller cracks so to catch a problem in it’s early stages.

The client was extremely pleased at the results and wrote us two very nice reviews on Google and our own website.
