Foundation Repair Photo Album: Bowing Within Foundation Walls in Need of Repair in Stettler, AB

This homeowners in Stettler, Alberta encountered issues with their home's existing wood foundation wall bowing inwards in some sections. Looking for answers and a permanent solution, they contacted the experts at Doug Lacey's Basement Systems. A System Design Specialist was able to assess their situation and provide the homeowner with a FREE, no obligation quote designed specifically to address all of the homeowner's concerns. Our Production Team was then able to then come to the home to install our Foundation Supportworks Geo-Lock™ Wall Anchor System. Heavy-duty, galvanized earth anchors are embedded in stable, undisturbed soil outside your foundation wall. Each anchor is connected by a steel rod to a wall plate that provides clamping pressure against the inside of the foundation wall. This method also offers the potential to straighten the wall back to its original position over time!
