Basement Waterproofing, Foundation Support, and Egress Installation in Remer, MN
Challenge
This homeowner faced persistent issues with water in the basement during spring thaws and heavy rain, even though there were no visible cracks in the foundation. The challenge extended to a bowing basement wall, raising concerns about structural integrity. The homeowner also desired the construction of an egress window, adding complexity to the project.
Solution
Upon a comprehensive inspection, our Design Specialist proposed a multifaceted solution. The plan included Waterproofing, Foundation Repair, and the installation of a new egress window to not only resolve the water infiltration but also enhance the overall functionality and aesthetics of the basement. Our skilled crew implemented the recommendations by installing 5 PowerBraces™, providing essential support and stability to the bowing wall. Simultaneously, a Waterguard® system was put in place to effectively address the seeping water issue. The installation of a new egress window served a dual purpose, improving ventilation and meeting the homeowner's specific request. The integrated approach successfully tackled the diverse challenges posed by the basement issues, ensuring a comprehensive and lasting solution.
