This basement had a lot of hydro static pressure coming from their foundation walls, resulting in bowed in walls and basement leaks. We fixed this by installing a full interior perimeter waterproofing system and installing PowerBraces over the bowed walls. When you waterproof a basement, it helps relieve that water pressure off of the walls, helping the PowerBraces out even further. We waterproofed by installing WaterGuard drains under the basement floor along the perimeter, and hooked the drains up to a SuperSump sump pump. Lastly, we installed BrightWall panels that cover the dirty walls and help filter water coming from the walls to the drainage system.
The soil under this homes foundation was shifting, causing the foundation to sink away from the brick walls of the house. We are able to raise foundations by using helical piers, which are strong enough to transfer the weight of the houses down into deep soil. They also go deep down into solid soil that can't move, allowing the foundation to stay put for good.
This home had a driveway that was slowly falling off the hill that there house resides on. PolyLevel foam injections weren't going to fix the problem just by themselves this time. We also needed helical piers installed to make sure the problem doesn't happen again. This big driveway which was used to store a lot of cars and weight, was now safe again.
Are you noticing your house settling? In Williamstown, drought conditions have exaggerated the effects of settling, resulting in many houses to sink. For this house, we installed piers on the footers to transfer the weight of the home onto stable load-bearing soils.
This basement in Owenton, KY, was experiencing immense amount of water pressure outside the foundation. We relieved the pressure by waterproofing with our subfloor drains and our sump pump. We then stabilized the walls by installing our PowerBrace steel I-beams. We also added a CleanSpace vapor barrier behind the beams to help drain wall leaks to the subfloor system.
