There are three signs of wall failure. The first sign is horizontal cracks running through the foundation wall. The second sign is staircase cracks leading down the wall. The third is continued pressure causing the wall to lean or sheer.
A PowerBrace is installed against the foundation wall. Once it is installed it will straighten your wall over time, potentially reversing the wall failure without digging up your landscape.
There is no heavy duty equipment involved in installing a PowerBrace. There is no disturbance to your lawn or even your landscaping.
The PowerBrace is designed with Zinc. It will not only look great against your foundation walls but will not rust over time.
Project Info

A horizontal cracked wall is the first sign of wall failure. A homeowner in Davenport, IA had a long horizontal crack running through their foundation wall closer to the top. As time went on another horizontal crack appeared right under it. This is the first sign of wall failure, but it's better to take action now until it is too late! The homeowner contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems and we were able to help this homeowner out!
