Foundation Wall Leaning, Litchfield, NH
This homeowner in Litchfield, NH was concerned with several cracks in their foundation walls. Some of the cracks ran vertically, and some ran horizontally. Soil on the exterior of the foundation walls was saturated with ground water, making it heavy, and the added weight was causing the wall the crack and lean.
Our team designed and installed a solution to permanently stabilize the wall against the heavy earth on the outside and prevent it from leaning any further. This before and after series highlights our PowerBrace steel wall anchors. Secured to both the concrete floor below, and the floor joist system of the home above, the PowerBrace supports are permanently fastened up against the leaning concrete wall.
The installation process was clean and efficient, leaving the owner with no mess to worry about. With their foundation wall permanently stabilized, along with a 25-year warranty, this homeowner now has peace of mind their home is in good shape for years to come.
