Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Providing superior support and permanent stabilization in this Bloomsburg, PA home after installing the SmartJack Support System. 

In the before photo, notice the bowing basement wall in a Manheim, PA home. This issue compromised the structural integrity, prompting the homeowner to seek a reliable solution. Our team at Liberty Basement Systems expertly addressed this problem using the PowerBrace System. As seen in the after photo, these zinc-plated steel beams stabilize the foundation walls securely, halting inward wall movement. The PowerBrace solution not only provides immediate reinforcement but also has the potential to reverse wall failure signs over time, ensuring a safe and solid home foundation.

When moisture and frost interact with the soil around your home, the soil expands. As a result of expansion, your foundation wall experiences constant inward pressure, causing cracking, bowing, and tipping. With CarbonArmor, the foundation wall is permanently stabilized with fiber-reinforced polymers that are 10x stronger than steel, yet flexible enough to contour tightly. 

Installing SmartJack posts beneath the beam that supports the joists in your basement or crawl space is the most effective way to permanently fix sagging or bouncy floors. For this customer, our crew installed a galvanized steel supplemental beam to the joists for the SmartJack Support Posts.
