Take a look at the foundation repair project we recently completed in De Witt, IA. In the before photo, you'll notice the basement wall was significantly bowing, raising concerns for the homeowner. Our experienced team quickly assessed the situation and installed the GeoLock Wall Anchor system. As shown in the after photo, the heavy-duty steel anchors now hole the wall securely in place, protecting it from further movement. This installation, suitable for any season, restores not just the property's structural value but also the homeowners peace of mind.
Carl recently contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems to have his bowing wall evaluated. During his inspection, it was noted that not one, but two basement walls were bowing inward and needed to be addressed to prevent future worsening. A 10 PowerBrace system was offered to stabilize the failing foundation. The galvanized steel I-Beam system prevents the PowerBraces from oxidizing and rusting over time, giving the foundation the permanent stabilization that is needed. The I-Beam system also offers an opportunity to straighten the wall back to its original position without damaging the wooden floor joist system. Carl now has stabilized walls and no longer worries of a failing foundation.
Imagine this: You're happily strolling through your house, humming a tune, when suddenly—you notice the floor just doesn't quite feel even. Makes you feel a little uneasy right? That's exactly what happened to a homeowner in Silvis, Illinois. But instead of letting wobbly floors shake their peace of mind, they called in the foundation-saving heroes at MidAmerica Basement Systems. And guess what? In just one day, their wonky basement was transformed into a sturdy haven with the use of SmartJacks!
During an annual maintenance of a waterproofing system in Silvis, IL, our keen-eyed technician discovered a bowing wall, as you can see in the before photo. Concerned about potential worsening, we took swift action by installing our PowerBrace System to stabilize the wall. With zinc-plated steel beams custom-fit and tightly secured, the imminent risk was permanently addressed. Thanks to the PowerBrace's innovative design, not only do these beams secure the wall, but they also allow for adjustments overtime, maintaining the wall's stability without digging or drilling.
