A homeowner in Orion, IL faced bowing basement walls that needed stabilization. After a thorough assessment of the foundation, our Specialist recommended the installation of our trusted CarbonArmor system. CarbonArmor uses fiber-reinforced polymers to effectively lock the wall in its current position. Because it's a low-profile application that is only a thin strip, it allows the homeowner to paint directly over it and seamlessly finish the room. They now have full access to a stable and usable Orion, IL basement.
