Foundation Repair Products Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Franklin, Ohio, was dealing with a bowing foundation wall and water intrusion in the basement — a combination that only gets worse over time if left untreated.

To stabilize the foundation, we installed PowerBraces, a steel I-beam system designed to straighten walls over time without any invasive exterior digging. Along the perimeter, we laid in our WaterGuard® drainage system, which captures groundwater before it reaches the basement floor and channels it to a sump pump.

We paired the system with our TripleSafe® sump pump (not pictured), which includes three layers of protection — a primary pump, a secondary pump for high-volume situations, and a battery backup to keep things running during power outages. Finally, we finished the walls with BriteWall® paneling, a clean, moisture-resistant covering that not only brightens the space but also directs any wall seepage into the WaterGuard system below.

In Miamisburg, OH, we lifted and leveled a front porch that had settled over time. Using our helical pier system, we were able to close the gap between the porch and the house and bring the slab back to level, restoring both safety and a smooth, stable surface for the homeowners.

Our CarbonArmor wall repair system is a strong yet minimally invasive solution for foundation walls beginning to bow inward. In this Morrow, OH basement, we started by grinding the wall to create a clean, rough surface for proper adhesion. A layer of epoxy resin was then applied, followed by the installation of carbon fiber straps for reinforcement. Another coat of epoxy secured the straps firmly in place. Each strap was then anchored to the rim joist using our ArmorLock system, which connects the carbon fiber to a heavy-duty steel bracket for added stability. The result is a permanent, low-profile repair that strengthens the wall and prevents further movement.

Notice horizontal cracks in your foundation wall? External forces may be causing it to bow inward. Our PowerBrace system can straighten them out!

The owner of this home in Harrison, OH, gave us a call because they noticed a large horizontal crack had developed across a wall in their basement. The homeowner caught their crack very early on in the failure process, which allowed us to quote them our CarbonArmor repair method. Our carbon straps are a relatively new technology, and they allow us to stabilize walls without having to do any drilling, excavating, or jackhammering. However, they can only be used in certain situations where the wall failure hasn't advanced too far. They are installed by applying a strong epoxy resin to the wall, adhering the straps to the wall, adding brackets to secure to the straps to the ceiling, and then covering the straps again with an epoxy topcoat. These straps are very thin and can be finished with a paint, which homeowners love. Because they take up little space and can be painted, homeowners can either add a finished wall system, or just conceal them with paint.
