Cracked and Bowing Foundation Repaired in Nokomis, IL
A foundation was bowing out in a Nokomis, IL basement, causing cracks to appear. To solve this issue, the PowerBrace System was installed. This system is designed to stabilize a home’s foundation permanently. It will support the basement walls and straighten them over time. It will distribute the load evenly and eliminate the worry of damage caused by commonly seen wood floor joists. This system can be tightened over time and requires no invasive drilling or digging. PowerBrace’s brackets are engineered to support the joints and protect the floor system's durability. This foundation will now remain stable for years to come!
