Design Specialist Jason Swanson went to the home to conduct a free, no-obligation estimate for the homeowner. After a thorough inspection, Jason recommended our PowerBrace® System to the homeowner as a solution to their problem.

These steel beams are extremely effective and can even be adjusted in order to restore the wall back to the original position.

Now that the home has been properly supported, the homeowner will be able to enjoy time in their home without worrying about their basement walls caving in.

Unlike other PowerBrace™ jobs, this was required a unique "H" design below the staircase in order to properly fit the brace, as shown in the photo. Though this is not something that normally occurs, DBS was able to get the job done, and the results turned out great!
