Foundation Repair Photo Album: Cracked and Leaking Foundation Repaired in Alton, IL
Cracks were appearing on a foundation in an Alton, IL basement, and water was leaking from them. To solve these issues, the PowerBrace System was installed. This will permanently stabilize the foundation and eliminate any inward movement. This will also reverse the effects of wall failure, straightening the walls to their original position and closing the cracks to prevent water leakage. Any water that does leak will be caught by the WaterGuard System. This perimeter drainage system will catch wall seepage and drain it toward the TripleSafe Sump Pump System, which will drain water from WaterGuard and below the basement and discharge it out of the house. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system, which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain dry, clean, and stable for years to come!
