Solution
In about a week, our Design Specialist, Chuck H., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, he took a close look at the exterior and interior of the foundation, noting the cracks and where movement began. He also explained how hydrostatic pressure is the likely cause of their foundation movement. Hydrostatic pressure is pressure exerted by a liquid due to the force of gravity. When that pressure exceeds what the wall can withstand, it is common to see cracking, bowing, and shearing on the wall. After explaining this and reporting his findings, he began working on a detailed solution to secure the foundation. He recommended using GeoLock, our wall anchors that redirect pressure against the foundation away from the home, and CarbonArmor, our strong carbon fiber solution that is installed against the foundation, securing it in place. Happy with the recommendations, the homeowner decided to move forward with the project.
In about a month, our Foreman, Victor S., and his crew arrived, where they successfully installed 7 CarbonArmor, and 12 GeoLocks. Now, our customer can have peace of mind! Looking for foundation repair? Click HERE to schedule your FREE estimate today!
