Are your walls cracked, leaning or caving in? We can straighten and/or stabilize basement walls with our superior 4” steel I-beam system. After an on site evaluation, the I-beams are custom built and ready to install when we arrive (including a gray primer to help protect the I-beams and give them an attractive appearance.) I-beams are placed vertically at approximately 5’ intervals. Two small holes are drilled in the floor for each I-beam where they are then pinned to the floor assuring the wall cannot slide in at the base.

BEFORE AFTER

We then use a customized hydraulic pushing system to drive the I-beams tight against the wall. If the wall has been excavated this will allow the wall to straighten. (Often the wall will move even without excavating the outside, but as we would not know what is on the outside of any particular wall we do not guarantee the wall to move unless it is excavated first.) The I-beams are then permanently secured to the overhead floor joist to assure the wall can never bow in the middle or tilt at the top of the wall.

BEFORE AFTER

Leading methods of basement wall straightening are inferior due to the inherent fact that they are, in essence, anchoring to dirt and/or the top and bottom of the wall is not secured leaving a potential point of failure. In contrast, our system secures the wall; center, bottom, and top, thus assuring a secure basement wall for years to come.

Notice: Plates anchored only in the middle of the wall, with a thin rod (how long will the rod last?) running through your wall and into the earth where it is anchored to another metal plate that will essentially be pulling dirt toward your wall. There is nothing supporting the wall at the top or bottom of the wall. Please note the sample photo of one of our competitors below.
