Before & After Photos

The stairstep cracking in this basement alarmed the homeowner and they wanted a solution, fast. Our crew installed the PowerBrace Wall Repair System to stabilize the foundation wall. The PowerBrace consists of steel I-beams that are secured to the joists above the wall with steel brackets. This system is easily adjustable, allowing for tightening of the brace to attempt to raise the wall back to its original position.

This basement was facing multiple structural concerns, including bowing walls and sagging floor support. Our crew installed steel I-beams along the foundation walls to halt inward movement and reinforce stability. To support the floor system above, we also replaced the main load-bearing beam and installed a SmartJack adjustable post beneath it. These combined solutions not only secured the foundation walls but also restored strength and levelness to the home’s flooring system.

This Worthington, OH basement was cracking and starting to bow. They were also experiencing water in the basement and wanted everything taken care of at once. The Mid-State Basements Team installed a full perimeter WaterGuard system, a french drain at the entrance, and PowerBraces to support the foundation.

Homeowners in Amesville, OH called Mid-State Basement System because they had flooding in their basement that had damaged the paneling on the walls. Once they had taken down the damaged paneling, they also noticed that the cement block walls were cracked and shifting. We installed a WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system, a SuperSump sump pump, Carbon Fiber strips, PowerBrace i-beams, and redirected to downspouts away from the home. The homeowners are happy with the repairs and no longer have to worry about the basement leaking or the integrity of the foundation.
