Hydrostatic pressure can place an incredible strain on basement walls. Just one cubic foot of water weighs about 60 pounds, which means thousands of pounds of force can be pushing inward against your foundation at any given time.
That was the case for this basement in Covington, KY, where built-up groundwater around the foundation led to cracks, leaks, and bowing walls. To address the problem, we installed our interior perimeter waterproofing system to relieve the water pressure, paired with our PowerBrace wall repair system to stabilize and gradually straighten the walls.
To finish, we added our BrightWall paneling system, which not only channels wall leaks into the drainage system but also provides a clean, bright appearance.
