Before & After Photos

A foundation was bowing inward in Armstrong, IL, causing large horizontal cracks to appear. To solve this issue, the PowerBrace System was installed. This will permanently stabilize the foundation and eliminate any further inward movement. This will also reverse the effects of wall failure, straightening the walls to their original position and closing the cracks to prevent water leakage. This foundation will now remain stable and secure for years to come!

After a specialized consultation with the homeowner, our team designed and implemented a customized foundation repair plan for this Armstrong, IL basement. The solution included the installation of a wall anchor system and steel-plated support beams.

The wall anchor system, visible in the center-left of the after photo, stabilizes the foundation wall by securing a steel rod to the interior basement wall and extending it through the surrounding soil to a durable exterior anchor. This system permanently holds the wall in a stable position and helps prevent further movement. The steel-plated beam system, shown on the right side of the after photo, addresses foundation failure by reinforcing the connection between the foundation wall and the home’s floor system. These beams provide long-term structural joint support and restore stability to the foundation.

A foundation was cracking in a Robinson, IL basement, and the cracks were leaking water. To solve these issues, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was first installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls. The white color will also brighten the basement, reflecting the light. Any wall leaks will also be drained down to the perimeter drainage system. Next, GeoLock Wall Anchors were installed. These will permanently stabilize the wall, straightening it to its original position and keeping it in place. The cracks will also be closed so that no water can leak through. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain dry, clean, and stable for years to come!

A foundation was settling in Robinson, IL, causing the house to sink and damage the sill plate. To solve this issue, the Push Pier System was installed. These will permanently stabilize the foundation, and in many cases, lift it back toward its original position. These can also close cracks and improve the operation of windows and doors. This is the least risky solution when the soil conditions are unknown. There is minimal disturbance from installation; installing them is a quick process and will solve the problem once and for all!

Support blocks in a Marshall, IL crawlspace were failing, as they were sinking into the ground. To solve this issue, the SmartJack System was installed. This will stabilize the beams and floor joists in the crawlspace and lift the floor above it back toward its original elevation. Floor bounce caused by weakened joists or excessive spans will also be reduced. This crawlspace will remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!
