Foundation Services Photo Album: PowerBraces Stabilize the Walls of this Williamsburg Basement

As this Williamsburg home aged, the owners began noticing cracks in their basement's walls. This is common over time as outside soils begin to put pressure on basement walls from the outside. We installed a system of PowerBraces to help stabilize these walls and potentially straighten them over time. We also fitted the basement with a number of waterproofing measures, including a SuperSump.

Over time, pressure from surrounding soils can cause basement walls to bow or crack. These cracks should be addressed right away, as they can progressively become worse over time.

SuperSump Saves Garage

The SuperSump is a very popular model, and the best on the market. It will pump water collected from the basement's drainage system and pump it out to the buried downspouts outside of the house.
