Before & After Photos

A section of a home in Westlake, OH was shifting and sinking into the soil. This was causing serious structural issues to the home that needed to be fixed as soon as possible. Cleveland Basement Systems came in and installed helical piers along the outside foundation. Helical piers are made of galvanized steel that are bedded into strong soil deep below the earth. A steel foundation bracket is connected to the helical piers and then attached to the home's footing. The foundation crew then lifted the home back towards it's original position! Helical piers permanently stabilize a moving foundation and can be adjusted as the years go by. 

A homeowner noticed horizontal cracks in his basement and wanted to fix them before it got worse. Cleveland Basement Systems installed the CarbonArmor System which uses fiber-reinforced polymers to create a strong adhesion between the fiber fabric and walls. 

Installers at Cleveland Basement Systems worked diligently to stabilize this customer's foundation with the PowerBrace system. PowerBraces are zinc-plated steel beams that are custom fit to the basement wall and tightly anchored to the floor and joists. PowerBrace does not require invasive digging and effectively relieves the pressure from the wall. 

This homeowner in Lakewood, OH was experiencing wall failure in her brick foundation. Cleveland Basement Systems stabilized the wall by installing the EverBrace system. The EverBrace system uses steel corrugated panels that span between I-beams in order to strengthen the existing structure. EverBrace transfers the weight of the falling wall to the new support. Installers also securely attach CleanSpace between the wall and EverBrace in order to create an antimicrobial, waterproofed barrier. CleanSpace is a thick plastic sheet that works to reduce moisture and humidity.  Together, these two products will protect the foundation of this home. 

This homeowners faulty wall was fixed with the EverBrace wall restoration system. EverBrace uses engineered steel I-beams to anchor to the top track and floor. Specially cut steel panels are then installed and hung along the failing foundation wall. The EverBrace system transfers the heavy load from the fragile wall to the durable support system.
