Homeowners in Good Thunder, MN worked with System Design Specialist Rob Larson to find a permanent solution to their foundation issues. It's common for block foundations to bow over time, and it is important to correct this issue to prevent serious long-term effects. Crew Leader Rodney Pfarr and his team installed PowerBraces, foundation wall braces that actually move back walls to their original state, keeping the home safe and secure for life.
Our customer contacted Complete Basement Systems after a home inspection was done on her home regarding the foundation wall bowing. Our system design specialist designed a solution to prevent future wall movement.
This home had both bowing walls and a leaky basement. We installed PowerBraces and a WaterGuard system to help keep the water out and make sure the walls don't continue to bow out even further.
Our previous customer in Mankato contacted Complete Basement Systems to address a cracked foundation wall in their basement. We had installed the PowerBrace wall system on a different wall years ago and over time hydrostatic pressure builds and causes pressure on walls.
Homeowners in Chanhassen, MN noticed a perfectly straight crack on their unfinished foundation wall in their basement. Concerned about what they had seen, they did research online for companies specializing in foundation wall repair and scheduled a FREE estimate with Complete Basement Systems.
A representative determined after the inspection that the wall had movement which caused the crack in the foundation to appear. The foundation movement was caused by moisture and frost that interact with the soil around the home and when the soil expands it results in constant inward force on the foundation wall until it becomes so much pressure which is why the cracks and bowing happened.
The solution is simple. Our representative showed the homeowners our interior fix using the PowerBrace System. The zinc plated system is installed to support and stabilize the foundation wall from not incurring any further movement and with minimal maintenance can potentially straighten the wall back into place.
