Before & After Photos

This client contacted us out of concern for the deterioration of a previous support system installed by another company, as they wanted to ensure the maintenance of their property value. The existing support jacks, which were initially installed, were showing signs of rust at the top, and the support beams made of old, rotting wood were no longer reliable. These jacks were intended to provide support for the stoop area.

Recognizing the urgency and the need for a more robust solution, we installed two Smart Jacks along with a durable metal beam to effectively support the stoop. It was essential to address the deteriorating wooden beams, as they would have continued to rot over time, compromising the stability of the support system. By replacing them with galvanized Smart Jacks, we have ensured that the stoop is properly supported and secure.

The client expressed their satisfaction and relief, as they no longer have to worry about the stability of their support system. This improvement not only safeguards the integrity of their property but also contributes to the preservation of its value.

This 100-year-old house had walls that were starting to bow and this homeowner was worried that the foundation may collapse. This bowing-wall problem is caused by the normal geostatic pressure and water pressure pressing the wall for 100 years. We fixed this issue by installing wall support to stabilize the walls and keep them upright. 

This homeowner wanted to protect her 100-year-old house's walls that were starting to bow and fall in. This was caused by the geostatic pressure and water pressure against the walls that have been building up for 100 years now. We installed GeoLock channel anchors to stabilize the walls and keep them upright. 

This property was actually a rental home for the customer, and during the inspection, the inspector pointed out some problems with the walls that needed to be fixed before they could give they okay. Specifically, the south wall of the house was bowing about 1 1/2 inches and it needed immediate support.

Since there were some challenges with the project, like the use of Red Clay tile, our team decided that Power Braces would be the best option. We carefully chose these braces because they were the most suitable solution considering the specific constraints and difficulties of the project.

By using Power Braces, we were able to stabilize the wall effectively. It provided the customer with a solution that was appropriate and efficient, addressing their needs without any unnecessary extra steps.

Wet spring soils swelled up with water pushed this basement wall inward.  As you can see the crack in the wall is opened up wide.  About a half of an inch.  The next photo will show the wall is pushed back and the crack is closing as the wall is straightened.
