Foundation Repair Photo Album: Saint Paul, MN Garage Wall Saved from Collapse with Foundation Support

This Saint Paul, MN home was with a block foundation. At one point, a garage was added and attached to the home. The homeowner started noticing issues with the foundation shifting on one particular side of the garage. The soil was putting pressue on the wall, causing it to bow inwards. After doing some research on foundation repair, the homeowners contacted DBS for a permanent solution.A DBS Design Specialist visited the home to provide a free, no-obligation estimate for the foundation repair work. After we diagnosed the foundation issue, and came up with a custom-solution, our wall repair team got to work! The project Foreman and crew installed 4 GeoLock™ Wall Plates and Earth Anchors to the failing foundation wall. This system uses the heavy-duty anchors in and connects them to plates on the wall interior wall. Connected with long, galvanized rods, these anchors are tightened to straighten the wall over time and provide maximum support.  The customer was happy with the work done and now has a permanent solution they can count on for years to come.
