Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This homeowner was getting moisture in her basement, so she wanted us to come out and look at her foundation. Her home doesn't have gutters, she didn't think she needed them because of the large overhang she has on her home. Turn out she did need them, moisture was still making its way down the side of the home, causing two sides to settle. To stabilize the home's foundation, we installed nine interior piers. 

This customer realized that one of his walls started pulling away from his house and was worried that the problem was going to cause extensive damage to the house. We discovered that settlement combined with the way the wing wall was built caused the wall to pull from the house. This issue also compromised the home's second-level deck. We stabilized this home's foundation by installing five push piers at the corner of the home. Our push pier installation is non-disruptive, can lift the foundation back to its original position, and it has a 25-year warranty! 

These homeowners wanted to refinish their basement, but their bowing basement walls were stopping them. The problem was that they had top shear on one of their foundation walls and hydrostatic pressure from the soil on the outside of the walls. Our team fixed these problems by installing PowerBraces on the "problem" wall. We decided to use PowerBrace because the walls were poured and the deflection wasn't to the point of requiring another fix. Now the wall is stable and these homeowners can start their refinishing project!b

This homeowner had to pull her house off the market due to structural issues. She wanted these foundation issues addressed and fixed in a timely manner so she could sell her home at full value. The soil on the outside of the wall had pushed the poured wall in about an inch, causing cracks in both corners and several drywall cracks in the finished area. We installed GeoLock earth anchors to permanently stabilize the foundation wall and prevent more inward movement. 

This homeowner was worried about his wall coming into his finished basement further because it had already started to cause interior damage. The reason this was happening was because hydrostatic pressure from his backfilled area was pushing on the area, causing it to move in. To fix the problem, we installed 5 GeoLock earth anchors to stabilize his wall and straighten them over time. Plus, we ended up finishing this project without disturbing the basement!
