In this basement, the homeowner was getting water in through the wall cracks, and one wall was beginning to bow due to outside pressure from soil and water. To stabilize the bowing wall, we installed our PowerBrace foundation wall repair system, which is designed to straighten the walls over time and save the integrity of the foundation. This system is conducted with steel beams that get secured under the rim joist and are stabilized with steel brackets, which will make it easy to adjust over time to its original place.
At this home, the discharge line was backing up water through the downspout and also caused mud to backup into the sump pump. We installed the IceGuard with an extended discharge line that will drain out through the LawnScape at the end of the underground pipe. This system will prevent flooding by allowing water to escape through the discharge line and will prevent frozen discharge lines during the winter months.
