Bowing Wall Stabilized with SmartJack in Taylorville, IL Basement

Debbie R is worried about her foundation in the basement failing. The wall is bowing in, creating a large crack. To stabilize it and make sure no water gets in, Luis R and his crew installed PowerBrace to help support the foundation. This will permanently stabilize the foundation and repair the cracks. This will also bring the foundation back to its original position, and keep it there. 

A CleanSpace Wall was also installed to prevent water vapor from coming in, making the walls clean and bright.

Debbie can now rest assured knowing that her foundation will forever be stabilized!

 

Failing Foundation Repaired in Taylorville, IL Basement

A foundation was failing in Taylorville, IL, as it was bowing inward, cracking, and leaking water. To solve these issues, the PowerBrace System was first installed. This will permanently stabilize the foundation and eliminate any further inward movement. This will also reverse the effects of wall failure, straightening the walls to their original position and closing the cracks to prevent water leakage. Next, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls and drain any leaks down to the WaterGuard System. This perimeter drainage system will catch wall seepage and drain it to the sump pump to be pumped out of the house. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain stable, dry, and clean for years to come!

These are galvanized steel earth anchors embedded into the soil out and away from the foundation wall. Once installed, these will hold the walls in their current position and can be tightened to allow for improvement and straightening of the wall over time. These can be installed around obstacles on the wall such as pipes, sinks, or furniture. This is the best solution to straighten the wall over time, as it can fix severe problems and stabilize the foundation for good!
