Foundation Services Before & After Photos

This house was having foundation settlement issues around various areas that required various solutions. Pictured are our PowerBraces, which will stop the wall from caving in and shifting horizontally. Not pictured was PolyFoam leveling done to the porch area, which fixed some outdoor concrete from breaking down any further. We also installed helical piers to stop the foundation from shifting vertically as well. 

In order to stabilize this bowed in wall, we installed our PowerBrace system. Our PowerBraces aren't just your normal steel beams. They are designed to distribute the weight of the walls evenly all throughout the brace, which will prevent damage to the floor joists. They are also easily installed and adjustable, which allows us to straighten the wall out over time. They also look very clean, are very durable, and are coated in zinc which prevents rust.

We used our helical pier system to repair a foundation in Owensville, Ohio.  A corner of the foundation was settling causing cracking in the outside brick of the home.  Once the Helical Piers were installed we were able to stabilize the foundation and also resolve the cracks in the brick. 

The outside brick on this home was cracking in a stair-step pattern. This happens because when a house settles, the first places to crack are the weakest points in the structure. In this case, the mortar between the brick was the weakest link, so it was the first sign to show. We stabilized the sinking foundation by lifting the house back with our helical pier system. If you see cracking like this with your home, be sure to give us a call so we can give a free & honest diagnosis.

This basement had a combined issue of foundation shifting and water leaking. We installed WaterGuard, PowerBraces, and a TripleSafe sump pump to fix the issues at hand.
