Laura T.'s foundation bricks were pushing out in her basement in Pipestone, MN. She knew of our Design Specialist, Eric Hazelton, so he went to Laura's house to inspect the problem and come up with a solution. Eric proposed our Wall Anchor System, which is designed to straighten foundation walls back to their natural positions. Laura was confident in the product, so she went ahead with the project.
Our Foreman, Tremaine Jackson, and his production crew installed our wall anchors to straighten out the foundation wall. Wall anchors are installed independently and in order for them to work efficiently, there needs to be a lot of room outside of the home. This system is installed with heavy-duty earth anchors, long, metal rods, and anchor plates. Laura thought the crew did great and she was happy with the work!
