Photo Album: Basement Repair Company in Corbin, KY
A homeowner in Corbin, Kentucky was dealing with cracks in their basement walls that were leaking water. The foundation was poured, and no sump pump system had been installed. They met with one of our Certified Inspectors, who recommended installing the PowerBrace system, the WaterGuard basement waterproofing system, a SuperSump sump pump, and the CleanSpace wall system. The PowerBrace system uses steel I-beams that are secured with adjustable brackets to stabilize and potentially straighten bowing or tilting walls. WaterGuard is a drainage system that was installed along the foundation floor to capture seeping water and direct it to the sump pump. The SuperSump features a Zoeller cast iron pump and a WaterWatch alarm to alert homeowners of water issues. The CleanSpace wall system is a heavy plastic liner that prevents moisture from entering the basement and directs wall leaks into the WaterGuard system. With these solutions in place, the homeowner now has a dry, stable basement that can be used without worry.
Basement Wall Repair
The CleanSpace wall will drain water leaks from the wall down into the WaterGuard subfloor drains. The PowerBraces are used to stabilize the failing wall.
PowerBrace System
PowerBraces are steel I-beams that are attached to the failing wall with brackets.
PowerBrace Design
The adjustable bracket of the PowerBrace system is designed to be tightened over time to potentially reverse wall failure. This bracket will also help prevent floor joist damage that other wall systems don't account for.
