Foundation Repair Photo Album: Bowing Wall Solution: PowerBrace
Theresa and David K. of Granite City, Missouri had problems with the foundation in their home. In the basement, the foundation walls were cracking horizontally causing the wall to bow. Worried about their home, they decided to give Woods Basement Systems a call.
We sent our foreman Jeremy Raby and his team out to the home to install PowerBrace. The PowerBrace system is designed to permanently stabilize your home’s foundation. It supports basement walls and allows for straightening over time. PowerBrace is the best way to sole a bowing wall problem.
PowerBrace
PowerBrace's unique, patented design allows the system to be tightened over time, stopping wall failure without any invasive drilling or digging on the property.
The Process
The zinc plated steel beams are custom fit to the basement wall height and secured tightly against it.
Installing PowerBrace
PowerBrace can be installed year-round, often in less than one day.
Installation
No heavy equipment is needed, and no disturbance to the home's lawn or landscaping.
