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 soil pressure against the foundation wall was too great to support. It caused the foundation wall to bow and crack. Water leaked through the cracks, causing the basement to get wet. The WaterGuard Interior Drainage System was installed to ensure the basement remained dry at all times. For the bowing and cracked foundation wall, CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System was installed. The CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System is a carbon fiber reinforced polymer system that provides strength and stability to the bowing and cracked foundation walls.
