The foundation walls were cracked and bowing. Foundation stabilization was achieved by installing push piers. Galvanized steel tube sections are hydraulically driven through steel foundation brackets to reach the depths of competent soil. They're locked into place and the weight of your home is transferred from the original, unstable soil, through the piers, to the competent soil or bedrock.
In the basement photos from Zionsville, PA, you’ll first see bowing and shifting concrete block foundation walls in need of some expert TLC. Our skilled team tackled this with the mighty duo: CarbonArmor® and PowerBrace™. As you can see in the after photo, CarbonArmor® works wonders without heavy-handed," call-the-maid" invasiveness, and PowerBrace™ adds that long-lasting stability touch. Now, these once-wobbly walls stand upright and sturdy, lovingly taken care of just like grandma’s prized tomato plants on chicken wire. Ah, sweet basement serenity!
There were cracks in the concrete block retaining wall, as well as a bowing inward. We installed the PowerBrace Wall Repair system to prevent further bowing and stop any further damage. This wall repair system permanently stabilizes foundation walls and can straighten them back to their original position.
The floors in this 100 year old farmhouse were sinking with every step the homeowner took. The support jacks she had in place weren't able to provide the needed support. We were able to fix this problem by installing SmartJacks. These galvanized steel support posts are sturdy and built to last. SmartJacks provide support for weak beams while simultaneously bringing sagging floors back up to where they are supposed to be.
This home is now structurally sound thanks to the power of SmartJacks and our incredibly talented crew of professionals!
