Basement Wall Supported in Minto, ND

Thursday, August 24th, 2023 by Ella Wiebusch

Challenge

Dave from Minto, ND got in contact with us when he began to notice that one of his basement walls was beginning to show signs of bowing. Dave was afraid that if he left the issue unresolved, he could face serious damage to the structural integrity of the home. When he called in, we set he up with our FREE estimate, entitling Dave to a thorough, no-obligation estimate.

Solution

Shortly after scheduling, our Design Specialist, Kole, headed out to the property to do a walkthrough. Once he completed his inspection, he was able to make his recommendations. Kole recommended our GeoLock wall anchors to fix the situation. He explained that these locks will permanently stabilize your foundation wall by anchoring the walls to the hard-packed virgin soil beyond the foundation of the home. He went on to say that, as the house shifts and settles more, the anchors can be tightened to give homeowners peace of mind for years to come. The couple agreed and work began shortly after.

Our Foreman, Cameron, and his crew installed 5 of GeoLock anchors on the bowing wall in the basement. They provided the finishing touch to the foundation wall anchor system by adding the Hide-A-Way® System™ to stabilize and straighten bowing, and buckling walls. This system is great because you never need to cut or damage your finished basement walls to access and tighten your wall anchors!

Once the job was complete, Dave was happy to know he didn't need to worry about his foundation anymore!
