Power Braces Strengthen the Foundation Walls of a Hale, MI Home

Our friend Penny from Hale, MI began having issues with the walls in her basement bowing outward. With continued observation she could tell a couple of the walls were forming hairline cracks. Penny became very uneasy about her basement walls future and called us in search of professional help. We came to her rescue and devised a tactical solution consisting of twelve PowerBraces. The PowerBrace system encompasses adjustable steel I-beams that secure to the joists above the foundation wall, offering revolutionary support. The PowerBrace improves the condition of bowing and cracked walls by reversing the forces of nature and allowing them to move back to their original position. With this ideal solution in place, Penny can remain calm knowing her walls will eventually return to their proper position.

Hillman Home Gets PowerBrace

This Hillman, MI home’s basement has been having issues with its wall. It had previously buckled, and to fix it, the homeowners tried to fill the empty space with sand. This worked, but only for a small period of time. The wall had now begun to bow, and moisture is seeping in through a crack.

To fix this problem, we installed our PowerBrace Foundation Wall Repair System. Consisting of steel I-beams that are secured to the joists above the wall with steel brackets, PowerBrace works by adjusting your walls slowly and carefully over time to make sure floor joists do not crack or break from the adjustments.

You also don’t have to worry about deterioration of the beams because PowerBrace is coated with zinc to ensure no rusting or deterioration occurs.
