Victor Barke's Complete Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Our customer needed help with water always coming into their basement.  Wayne & Joanne were tired of the clean up mess and called in a professional.  

Our System design specialist designed a permanent waterproofing system to control water entering into the basement using our WaterGuard Drainage System and a new SuperSump Pump system.  It was also evident that the foundation walls had movement, so we used our PowerBrace wall system to stabilize the foundation wall using zinc coated steel I-beams. 

Milly noticed our crew working in town and decided to give us a call, she wanted to know if we could come take a look at something. Our crew leader stopped by to take a look at her basement.  She was concerned about the bowed walls in her basement.

Upon further investigation, signs appeared indicating that past water in the basement had been a problem for a long time. Our crew leader designed a waterproofing system, wall system, sump pump and foundation wall system. 

This homeowner had a block wall in the basement that was bowing quite severely. Bowing walls are caused by hydrostatic pressure and expansive soils on the outside of your foundation. When the clay soil around your home absorbs water, it expands and pushes against the foundation. It's important to stop the wall from bowing or leaning any further. If this homeowner would have waited much longer, the wall could have collapsed and caused irreparable damage to the structure of his home.

We installed our PowerBrace Wall Support System is designed to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten walls over time with regular tightening. This system requires NO outside excavation. The system we installed in this home was done in one day!

Let us know if you have bowing or leaning walls that you would like a solution for. Our PowerBrace System might be right for you!

Brandon & Shelby of Marshall, MN were in the process of selling a home when they noticed a section of the basement wall was bowing inward.  

Overtime block foundation can develop cracks due to hydrostatic pressure against the foundation wall which can cause bowing.  The solution is our patented PowerBrace support system to stabilize the wall from further movement.  Our customer can now sell the home given peace of mind.

This Lakefield Business had many challenges with the crawl space, ranging from flooding to radon risks.  With our patented CleanSpace product, this concrete crawl space is now fully protected.
