St. Louis Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair
Repairing cracked, buckling or bowed walls do not necessarily require rebuilding the whole wall. We have a well engineered technology approved by the International Code Council that can stabilize and brace a leaning or bowing basement wall. Rebuilding a foundation wall can involve piering a house, excavation and rebuilding a wall. Our system uses rods and anchor plates as a cost effective means for basement wall bracing.
Our service technicians insert a steel anchor rod through the bowed or leaning basement wall into the earth outside. A steel anchor brace is attached to the rod through a hole dug vertically in the ground. A steel anchor bracing plate secures the rod to the leaning basement wall.
Wall anchors are placed in different places along the wall and extenders used to avoid flower beds, decks and landscaping. The process can take less than one day in some instances since your basement wall doesn't have to be rebuilt. Your home and surrounding area is left in virtually the same condition before the basement wall bracing is installed.
