Foundation Repair Photo Album: Shifting Foundation Stabilized in Carlyle, IL
A foundation was shifting in a Carlyle, IL basement, causing issues within the home. To solve this issue, GeoLock Wall Anchors were installed. These are galvanized steel earth anchors that are embedded into the soil out and away from the foundation wall. Once installed, these will hold the walls in their current position and can be tightened to allow for improvement and straightening of the wall over time. These can be installed around obstacles on the wall such as pipes, sinks, or furniture. This is the best solution to straighten the wall over time, as it can fix severe problems and stabilize the foundation for good.
Additionally, Hide-A-Way Wall Anchor Covers were installed. The snap-on design of these covers allows for future tightening and adjustment of the anchors. These will maintain a neat and clean look to the basement, and their low-profile design will optimize the valuable living space for years to come!
