Failing Foundation Wall Gets a Lift in Holland, MI

This family in Holland, MI gave us a call when they saw their foundation wall bowing to a point of danger. After a professional and free inspection, we determined that our patented PowerBrace foundation wall repair system would do the job to fix their problem. PowerBrace stabilizes tilting, bowing, or buckling basement walls by using steel I-beams that secure to the joists above the wall. With this installment, there is no chance this foundation will cause any more dangerous problems for this home.

Bowing Walls in Holland, MI Don't Stand a Chance Against Power Braces

Lee called us because he was selling his home to his brother and had some concerning foundation problems he wanted to address before the sale. It's quite obvious that the bowing wall pictured is severe. It has a large horizontal crack and some stair step cracking going on as well. Fixing your foundation isn't something that should be taken lightly. It's important to hire a trustworthy, experienced contractor and one that offers a solution that will be effective and suit your needs.

Our system design specialist and Lee sat down and agreed together that installing our PowerBrace system was going to be the best method to fixing the foundation of this home. There are many differently methods that could have worked for this but PowerBraces will overtime actually straighten the wall back its original position. They are zinc coated so no concers of rust. The best part too is that these beams don't require any drilling or digging so the process is pretty noninvasive and is a permanent fix.

Failing Retaining Wall Repaired In Rockford, MI

Duane called us about his retaining wall. The wall was an extension of the home and was unfortunately cracking and leaning some. He wasn't sure what that meant for the stability of the home but knew it couldn't be good. The good news is that we had a reliable fix for Duane. The answer was C-Channel wall anchors. Long steel C-channels along the retaining wall were connected to steel GeoLock earth anchors buried out in the yard, away from the wall using  long steel rods. This prevents the wall from leaning any further and creates an option for slowly tightening the system over time, potentially improving the condition of the wal. With the possibility of any further damage prevented, Duane can now breathe easy.
