PowerBrace Installation in Catskill, NY

A homeowner in Catskill, NY had a crack in their foundation that was causing it to tilt inward, which could eventually cause the foundation to fall. The crew installed 6 PowerBraces. These will work to stabilize and straighten out the foundation by slowly tightening each brace using a specific tool. Eventually, the braces can become flush with the wall, ensuring the wall will stay in a straight position.

Powerbraces in Ancram, NY

As a house gets older, it’s only natural for the foundation to settle and walls to start bowing. Luckily, there’s an easy solution that does not require an entire excavation or overhaul of your foundation. These pictures showcase our PowerBrace product in a basement. What these joists do is prevent the integrity of the wall from deteriorating any more, keep them from bowing further, and can even potentially correct the misaligned structure. PowerBraces have the ability to be tightened, which gives them the opportunity to straighten the walls over time. They’re also have a neat, clean look to them and are zinc-coated, which makes them rust resistant; giving you one less thing to worry about. If bowing walls are a concern of yours, give us a call and one of our experienced design specialists will come in and determine if PowerBraces are right for your basement!
