Before & After Photos

This home had a wall that had a long horizontal crack from a shifting foundation. We installed helical piers to close the crack back together, and to stop the foundation from shifting again. 

This home in Verona, KY, had a crack sprawling from the top corner of the door frame up to the roof. This crack was a sure sign of settling, and was cause for us to install our pier system. By underpinning the foundation with our helical pier system, we were able to stabilize and lift the footing of the home, helping close the crack. This pier system is backed by our lifetime warranty that the structure will never move vertically again. 

This Erlanger, KY basement had old, ineffective braces that were no longer holding back a visibly bowing wall - you can see the lean just to the right of the door frame in the before photo. Our crew removed the outdated supports and replaced them with our PowerBrace system, which uses heavy-duty steel beams anchored to the floor and joists to permanently stabilize and to potentially straighten the wall out over time. You may also noticed we wrapped the wall with our CleanSpace vapor barrier, giving the basement a clean, bright appearance while sealing out moisture behind the bracing system. What was once a failing, visibly bowed wall is now straight, secure, and protected with a modern system built to last.

This foundation in Erlanger, KY, was in dire need of a repair system. More specifically, the load-bearing walls were bowing inwards. In Erlanger, KY, and for most of our service area, the soil is composed of natural clay. Clay soil is known for its expansive qualities, especially when it gets wet. As the clay surrounding a foundation expands, it can force an enormous amount of pressure upon a foundation, thus causing a wall(s) to bulge inwards. To fix this foundation, we braced all four walls with our PowerBrace steel beam system. The homeowner was happy to know that their foundation is safe from collapsing.

This wall in a basement of a Erlanger, KY, home was deflecting inwards. To repair the failing wall, our crew braced the wall with our PowerBrace system. The steel beams are coated in zinc to prevent rusting, and they ran vertically up against the wall. At the top of the beams, we secured the braces to the floor joist system with specially designed top brackets. These brackets help evenly distribute the load of the wall against the floor joist system, which helps prevent damage to the basement ceiling. The homeowner was happy to know that our system will stop their wall from toppling inwards.
