Bowing Basement Wall Repair Job in West Townsend, MA
Challenge
A customer from West Townsend, MA spotted on of his basement walls bowing inwards. He knew he needed a solution or else he'd run into a plethora of issues such as structural damage and water seepage. He contacted us for a solution, and our appointment center was able to schedule one of our inspectors to visit the home. The soil outside of this home provided too much hydrostatic pressure to the wall, causing it to cave inwards. So it's best left to us as professionals to diagnose the issue and come up with a solution.
The inspection process included him taking measurements of the basements, using a laser level and observing the wall cracks. From his observation, he proposed that we install our PowerBrace wall repair system for this bowing wall. This is our patented foundation wall repair system that's designed to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten walls over time.
After discussing the details, the customer agreed to the job proposal and was eager for the installation.
Solution
The crew began by cutting the wall braces to the correct length, then they secured each PowerBrace onto the wall by anchoring the top to the floor joist and drilled the bottom portion to the floor. This system includes the unique ability to have adjustments in case future settling occurs, making this a very reliable option for any homeowner experiencing bowing walls.
Once the walls were secured in place, the customer was relieved to see the immediate relief of his basement walls being halted by our PowerBrace system.
If you notice any visible cracks in your foundation walls or can't seem to fully understand what's going on, feel free to call us so we can help right away!
