Stair Step Crack in Brick Basement Wall Marion, IL
This photo shows a tell tale sign of a bowing foundation wall. If this problem were left untreated the wall could completely cave in leaving the home above unsupported. This solution is easily corrected by the installation of Woods Basement Systems' Geo-Lock Wall Anchors.
Cracking Brick Basement Wall in Marion, IL
Woods' Geo-Lock Wall Anchors get drilled into the bowing wall and a pin is placed through the wall and spans a minimum of 11 feet from the home. The other end of the pin is attached to an earth plate that uses the pressure of the surrounding soil to bring the bowing wall back to it's original position. With the wall plate and the earth plate working together to permanently keep the wall secure, these Marion, IL home owners now have peace of mind that their foundation is now safe from any further settling.
