Photo Album: PowerBrace System used to stabilize a bowing wall in Cambellsburg, KY
A Campbellsburg, Kentucky homeowner was having problems with a bowing wall in the basement. The house was built in the 50s and has a block foundation. We installed the patented PowerBrace System to resolve this problem for the homeowner.
The PowerBrace System is steel I-beams secured tight against the wall with brackets attached to the floor and floor joists. The PowerBrace System immediately stabilizes the foundation wall from further setting and the bracket is designed to be tightened over time to potentially reverse the wall failure.
With PowerBraces installed the homeowner can rest assured that the foundation wall is safe from any further movement from settling.
