Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Pressure from the soil on the other side of this foundation wall caused it to bow inward and crack. To halt the inward movement of the wall and provide permanent stabilization, GeoLock Channel Anchors were installed. 

In Norcross, Georgia, the homeowner contacted us due to signs of a bowing wall, a common issue indicating potential foundation problems. Notice in the before photo how the wall's inward curve was jeopardizing the structural integrity. We resolved this by installing the PowerBrace System, as shown in the after photo. Our solution involved custom-fitting zinc-plated steel beams that securely stabilized the wall without invasive digging. This specific design is capable of being tightened over time, preventing any further inward wall movement and safeguarding the homeowner’s property permanently.

It looks as if this customer had pre-existing foundation issues, and gotten them fixed, however they did not hold up and the customer was still dealing with the structural foundation of their home. They gave us a call here at Atlanta Basement Systems and we were able to send a sales representative out to look at the home, and see what we would be able to do to ensure that the foundation of the home was going to withstand. After the sales representative conducted an inspection they were able to determine that SmartJacks were going to be the answer to all of these problems. The SmartJacks are steel beams that are placed in the ground, down to the stable soil, and then surrounded with concrete for extra stability. All of the beams are then connected, and tightened in place, immediately leveling and securing the foundation. They help to transfer the weight of the foundation from the home onto the stable soil. This customer was left with the peace of mind of knowing that he was never going to have to deal with structural foundation issues again.
