Before & After Photos

Foundation walls begin to buckle, bow, or tilt inward from outside pressure from soil and water and can eventually cause foundation walls to collapse. The PowerBrace system is designed to stabilize failing basement walls and can help straighten them over time.

This basement had cracking and bowing walls, putting the home's foundation at risk. To reinforce the structure, we installed CarbonArmor straps—strong, fiber-reinforced polymers that bond to the wall and prevent further movement. This non-invasive solution provides long-term stability, ensuring the home remains safe and secure.

This basement wall has developed a large horizontal crack—a common sign of bowing due to external soil pressure. As the foundation walls weaken, they start to push inward, compromising the home's structural integrity. Without reinforcement, the wall could continue to bow and eventually fail. Our team installed static beams to stabilize the wall and prevent further movement, ensuring the long-term safety of this home.

For minor bowing or leaning foundation walls like this one, we install our CarbonAmor straps to stabilize the wall with fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) that are 10-times stronger than steel! This solution is fast, non-invasive, and fits seamlessly to the wall, providing stabilization with minimal disruption.

Cracked, bowing, or leaning foundation walls can be stabilized and even corrected toward their original position with our PowerBrace steel support beams. These beams are custom fitted to the foundation walls and secured with brackets to the basement floor and floor joists/sill plate. This immediately stabilizes the wall and prevents further movement or cracking. The system can even be tightened over time to correct wall movement.
