This homeowner recently faced the challenge of bowing basement walls. Our solution for this is the PowerBrace wall system. This system supports walls damaged by external hydrostatic pressure that causes them to buckle, bow, and crack. By utilizing steel I-beams, the PowerBrace securely stabilizes the walls, preventing any shifting of the soil that could impact the foundation. PowerBraces can be adjusted over time to not only stabilize the walls but potentially return them to their original position.
This customer wanted to stabilize his old farmhouse wall since he and his family were planning on living there for a long time. The home's wall was bowing due to pressure from the soil and water. This problem needed to be solved. We installed PowerBraes to the wall to support the inward movement it was experiencing. PowerBraces not only stabilize walls, but they can reverse wall bowing over time by being tightened regularly!
Homeowner Keith wanted to find a solution to ensure that his home was safe and protected. Since this customer has been happy with our work in the past, he chose Midwest to help secure this part of his home.
System Design Specialist Ryan Allen was able to come up with a permanent solution that fit the customers needs. Since the wall was short, we installed Geolock anchors to secure the wall prevent the joints from getting worse.
Check out the before and after of this project! These homeowners were having complications with their walls falling in after extending their garage and putting on an addition. To help combat this issue and give it a permanent fix, we installed a full perimeter of Power Braces. These Power Braces are full height braces that help prevent any further movement in of the walls. They also can help straighten out the wall over time. These Power Braces also come with a 25 year warranty, which will ensure these homeowners stay protected.
