Bowing Foundation Walls Stabilized in Clinton, IA

The homeowners are repeat customers of MidAmerica Basement Systems. The first time they reached out to the team, they were concerned about water coming into the space when ice would melt or when it would rain. The homeowners were impressed after MidAmerica waterproofed the basement and so when they noticed their foundation walls bowing, they called the MidAmerica Basement experts again. 

The professionals installed the Geo-Lock Anchor System to stabilize the foundation walls. Geo-Lock earth anchors have more contact with the soils which means the system has more stabilizing power in weaker soils. The anchors give the great opportunity to straighten the wall over time and there is minimal disturbance from installation. 

MidAmerica is happy to have provided the homeowners a basement that is secured and safe.
