Wall Anchors Stabilize Bowing Block Walls in Benton Harbor

This basement had bowing block walls with stair step cracks in multiple walls. We installed wall anchors on each wall to stabilize the walls and hopefully straighten them over time by tightening the anchors.

Installing Carbon Armor in Benton Harbor, MI

There was a bowed wall in John's basement so our team installed CarbonArmor. CarbonArmor repairs damaged and bowing foundation walls by preventing inward movement and reducing the cracks in your walls. This system can easily be concealed for your basement to have a sleek, finished look.

CarbonArmor Stabilized Failing Wall in Stevensville, MI

This customer had a wall in his basement that was starting to lean inward. The block foundation walls had multiple stair-step cracks on the outside that were sure signs of wall failure.

To stabilize the wall we used the effective carbon armor system. Specialized carbon fiber straps were adhered to the wall with a strong epoxy resin. Once applied, the system was secured into place with steel brackets and the wall was immediately stabilized. These straps also help to shift the wall back to its proper position over time.

Basement Wall Stabilized in Stevensville, MI

Matthew R. contacted us because his basement wall was beginning to bow inward. The basement is the foundation of your home and when it falls your entire home could fall with it. As soon as you see something like this happening its best to call in the professionals right away. Some signs to first look out for are stair step cracks, this is a way to tell right away that your wall is leaning.

Matthew's wall was not bowing in at the top or the bottom but just the center which is why our Carbon Fiber Straps were the best fix to this problem. These straps are held on by an epoxy glue. Carbon fiber is a very strong material that is impossible to stretch which is why it is great for making sure walls dont bow in any further. These straps will not straighten a wall but they will ensure the wall doesn't move anymore. 

Bowing Wall Gets PowerBrace Support in Grand Junction, MI

Lynn and her siblings inherited their father's home and hoped to sell it in the near future, however, they were going to have trouble doing so until a bowed foundation wall in the basement was repaired. The horizontal crack in the wall is evidence of a problem that has evolved and grown worse over time. Our crew reinforced the floor joists above and put a series of 6 PowerBraces in place along the wall. The PowerBraces are a zinc-coated steel I-Beam that extend from the floor to the ceiling joist. They prevent the wall from bowing any further and help evenly support the weight of the home above. Another great feature is a unique tightening system at the top of the brace that allows the wall to possibly be straightened and brought back to its original position in time. The home can now be sold as any perspective buyers can rest easy knowing that a permanent fix is in place.
