With a wall slowly caving in, the basement of this home needed serious foundation repair. The homeowner called Mid-State Basement Systems for a solution.
We installed the PowerBrace Foundation Wall Support System. This wall support process involves steel beams being anchored down underground beyond the house’s base. A trench is dug for the anchoring and the steel beams are then cinched to the wall. These beams can be adjusted over time to continue to straighten the wall.
A homeowner near Amlin, Ohio, called Mid-State Basement Systems after noticing the home's foundation pulling away from the rest of the home. We sent our Inspector, Jacob, to pay a visit to the homeowner where he confirmed the home's foundation was settling. He recommended SmartJacks to stabilize the foundation and potentially reverse the settlement over time. Now, the homeowner has peace of mind knowing his home's foundation is safe and stable!
When a homeowner discovered cracks in the block walls of his basement, he promptly reached out to Mid-State Basement Systems for assistance. Recognizing that even small cracks can indicate underlying damage, he sought a solution to protect his home. Our dedicated inspector, Jiovanni, conducted a thorough assessment and concluded that the CrabonArmour Wall Reinforcing System was the ideal approach for this project.
The CrabonArmour System incorporates flexible carbon fiber fabric straps, renowned for their exceptional tensile strength, which surpasses that of steel by up to 10 times. Our skilled crew swiftly initiated the necessary repairs. Using a high-strength epoxy resin, the carbon fiber straps were securely bonded to the interior surface of the wall. This innovative technique provides the stability required to reinforce and strengthen the wall, preventing further damage.
By opting for the CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System, the homeowner took proactive steps to safeguard his basement and protect his home's structural integrity.
A homeowner in Hilliard, Ohio, contacted Mid-State Basement Systems with concerns about her living room floors sagging. We sent our Sales Inspector, Francis, to the home to meet with the homeowner and discuss their concerns. Francis also provided a free inspection of the interior and exterior of the home.
He found several signs of foundation settlement that he addressed with the homeowner. He recommended 5 helical piers on the exterior of the home to stabilize and correct the sinking foundation. The crew installed the piers and was able to get significant lift with minimal disturbance to the lawn and landscaping.
A homeowner in Orient, OH called Mid-State Basement Systems because she was having water leaking into her home and the foundation walls in the basement were cracked. Our crew used several products to permanently repair all of the homeowner's concerns.
We used the WaterGuard subfloor drainage system around the perimeter to prevent further water leakage, CleanSpace vapor barrier on the wall to prevent moisture from entering the basement and make the walls look more appealing, and PowerBrace Beams to prevent further inward movement of the walls.
Now the homeowner will not need to worry about any water or foundation issues in the basement any longer.
