The homeowner of this basement in Clinton called the professionals at MidAmerica basement Systems and explained that the house was built in the 50's and had leaking walls. The outside drainage was poor and they weren't sure if the basement walls were waterproofed. The design specialist sent to provide an inspection, however, noticed a bigger problem - bowing foundation walls. Realizing that any work done could be compromised by caving foundation walls, the homeowner wanted to permanently stabilize the walls. The team installed the PowerBrace system. PowerBrace is made to permanently support basement walls and has a patented tightening system that could potentially improve the walls condition over time.
When this special education school found their foundation crumbling during a remodel, they called in the A-team. Salesman Terry Meiners diagnosed the "shaky ground," and Foreman Toney Genova stepped in to lead the heavy lifting.
Before: Walls that couldn't hold their own.
