Foundation Repair Photo Album: Stabilizing a Basement Wall in Saint Charles, MO
A basement wall was becoming unstable in Saint Charles, MO, causing cracks to form. To solve this issue, GeoLock Wall Anchors were installed. These are galvanized steel earth anchors 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. 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!
