Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Cal and Marcy A. of Holmen, WI had a bowed and cracked foundation wall in their basement, causing them to worry about the structural integrity of their home. They got our wall anchors installed, which are the most versatile wall repair system that we provide for homeowners because they can be installed to stabilize walls with a variety of problems, such as bowing, tipping, and cracking walls. 

When installed, anchors are embedded in the soil outside of the foundation wall and are connected by a long, steel rod to a wall plate. This provides the necessary pressure against the inside of the foundation wall, which enables it to straighten back into its natural position. The anchors are then tightened with a torque wrench and can be tightened by the homeowner over time to ensure the system is sticking to its design.
