This wall had cracked and had shown signs of worsening if not addressed immediately. In this situation, we recommended using our patented Power Braces to help the foundation wall maintain its position and eliminate the risk of adverse effects of further wall movement.
A homeowner in International Falls, MN reached out to DBS regarding their basement walls. The wood addition was beginning to bow, and it was concerning for the rest of the home. DBS was able to visit the property and provide a free, no-obligation estimate for the wall support service. It was concluded that the wall would need to have GeoLock® units installed to provide maximum stabilization for the basement walls. The results turned out beautifully, and the homeowner can now enjoy a more safe and comfortable environment.
