When a bowing block basement wall has less than two inches of deflection, we can stabilize it with our CarbonArmor system. Carbon armor is the perfect wall reinforcement system because it is, minimally invasive, has a quick installation time, and is super strong. We first sand the walls to make sure our epoxy glue gets deep into the pores of the concrete for ultimate strength. We then apply the epoxy over the wall and adhere it to the carbon reinforcement strip. After we glue the carbon strip to the wall, we then configure the ArmorLock, which is how we configure the system to the rim joist and sill plate. Carbon Armor is the perfect solution for minimally bowed block walls!
The wall in the garage of this home was bowing in from built up water on the outside soil of the garage. In order to keep this wall stable, we installed a system of PowerBrace steel beams. PowerBraces are not just your everyday steel beam product. They have unique qualities like special brackets that prevent damage to floor joists. They are also made of galvanized steel, so they won't rust like other options. The result of this project brought peace of mind to the homeowner that their wall won't shift again.
This basement had a bowing wall that was cracking horizontally. In order to remedy this, we installed 10 eight feet PowerBraces along the wall. The PowerBraces are so strong that the owner wont have to worry about the wall for the future.
This wall that needed repaired had a horizontal crack running across the wall. We repaired the wall by installing PowerBraces to reinforce the wall.
This wall was shifting so much, it was at an almost catastrophic level. Luckily, the customer noticed the signs and called us to help install PowerBraces to hold this wall together.
