Foundation Repair Photo Album: Stabilizing Basement Walls In Danville, IL
A basement in Danville, Illinois, had some foundation settlement that needed to be addressed. Woods came out and installed the PowerBrace System to fix this issue.
It consists of zinc-plated steel beams custom fit to the basement height. They are secured to the wall and floor, and are anchored to the support beams that hold up the floor. This system can be tightened over time, allowing for adjustments to prevent wall failure. With this install in place, this home should be sturdy for many years into the future.
