Foundation Repair Photo Album: PowerBraces and WaterGuard Installation in South Hero, VT
The customer was having problems with a leaning wall and water settling on one side of the basement while the drain on the other side was clear and dry. Northern Basement Systems installed a WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system along the back wall to take care of the water that wouldn't drain. We also installed 7 I-Beam PowerBraces to stabilizing the tilting back wall, and over time hopefully force that wall back into its original position.
Before
Water present and the back wall is tilting.
