Before & After Photos

A foundation in a Worden, IL basement was bowing in, causing cracks to form and water to leak out of them. To solve this issue, the PowerBrace System was installed to permanently stabilize the foundation wall. This will eliminate any further inward movement, and reverse the effects of wall failure. It will also straighten the walls back to their original position and close the cracks to prevent water leakage. To solve the water issue, a CleanSpace Wall system was installed. This will stop water vapor from permeating the basement walls, and drain any wall leaks down to WaterGuard. This perimeter drainage system will intercept water between the floor and wall joint and drain it towards the sump system to be pumped out of the house. This basement will remain dry and stable for years to come!

Support blocks were shifting in a crawlspace in Carlinville, IL causing issues. To fix this, the SmartJack System was installed. This will stabilize the beams and floor joists in the crawlspace and lift the floor above it back toward its original elevation. Floor bounce caused by weakened joists or excessive spans will also be reduced. This crawlspace will remain stable and restore peace of mind for years to come!

A foundation was becoming unstable in Carlinville, IL, and water was also running down it. To solve these issues, the PowerBrace System was first installed. This system is designed to stabilize a home’s foundation permanently. It will support the basement walls and straighten them over time. Next, the CleanSpace Basement Wall System was installed. This will prevent water vapor from permeating the basement walls. The white color will also brighten the basement, reflecting the light. Any wall leaks will also be drained down to the perimeter drainage system. Thanks to these systems, this basement will remain stable and dry for years to come!

This cracked house was experiencing settlement that affected the cement inside and outside, including the sidewalk! To reinforce the unstabilized home, push piers were installed in the footing to lift the foundation back into its original place. 

Support posts were failing in a basement in Lebanon, IL, causing the floors above to sink. To solve this issue, the SmartJack System was installed. These are steel support systems that can permanently stabilize and level the floor joists and girders in a basement. These add strength and stability to the existing piers. They are unaffected by moisture, as they will not rust, weaken, or be affected by mold. These will lift the floors above back toward their original position, reduce floor “bounce” caused by excessive joist spans, and solve the problem once and for all!
