Photo Album: Failing Foundation Wall Issue Solved Using The PowerBrace System in Wind Ridge, PA

To solve their failing foundation wall problem, this Wind Ridge, PA homeowner scheduled a free foundation repair inspection with our office. After a thorough assessment, we were able to recommend a solution that would not only stabilize the structure but would also permanently solve the problem. Due to soil expansion around the customer's foundation, the wall was forced to tilt inward as it could no longer support the pressure. In order to prevent further damage, the customer built a wedge to temporarily hold the wall until a professional could make the necessary repairs. To permanently stabilize this home's foundation walls, we installed zinc-plated steel beams custom fit to the basement wall height and secured tight against the wall with brackets anchored to the floor and floor joists. With the PowerBrace System, the wall can be tightened over time to help reduce the likelihood of wall failure without causing invasive damage. Having the PowerBrace System installed prevents the customer's foundation from failing and causing future, costly damage.
