Foundation Repair Products Photo Album: Bowing Basement Walls Stabilized in Versailles, Ohio

This basement in Versailles, Ohio was having issues with unstable, bowing basement walls. We stabilized these walls using our PowerBrace I-beam system and our CarbonArmor wall reinforcing system. The PowerBraces were installed in the spots of the basement where we thought we could straighten the walls back out, and the CarbonArmor repairs were used in the tighter spaces.

Bowing Basement Wall

This wall is cracking and the gaps between bricks is increasing - one of the first signs of structural instability.

Unstable Basement Walls Pose a Threat

Bowing basement walls can become very dangerous and should be dealt with as soon as possible to reduce costs and overall damage.

PowerBraces Provide Permanent Stability

PowerBraces are designed to provide permanent stability to basement walls and even have the potential to straighten the wall by being tightened over time.

CarbonArmor is the Strongest

CarbonArmor is substantially stronger than concrete, 10 times stronger than steel, and is specifically designed for basement walls.

CarbonArmor Works

CarbonArmor is the only fabric carbon fiber product designed to code ACI 440.7R - 10, which is the specific code for fiber reinforces polymers on masonry walls.
