Before & After Photos

Over time, the pressure of the ground on your home’s foundation can cause the walls to bow. A CarbonArmor system from MidAmerica Basement Systems can permanently fix the issue. CarbonArmor strips are 10 times stronger than steel and offer the solution to stop walls from bowing. The flexible carbon fiber system is strategically placed along the wall and uses the wooden floor joist system to prevent the wall from bowing inward and stopping the home from tilting away from the foundation. 

Homeowner Anthony noticed some cracking in the foundation of his home when he contacted MidAmerica Basement Systems. After learning about all of his options he decided that Carbon Armor were the best option for him and his home.  Carbon Armors are used on foundations to make sure the cracking stops and to child the wall from bowing.

Homeowner Ryan had recently purchased his home two weeks ago. The home was built in the 1980’s and has some water issues. Ryan was concerned about the home being unstable. The home has cracks in the wall where the water leaks in. The most important thing to Ryan is to make sure the foundation of his home is safe. He has had professional advice in the past about this problem but the company was not a good fit for him and the problem. The Helical Pier System from Foundation Supportworks will permanently stabilize your home. Rugged steel piers are mechanically “screwed” into the soil using small construction equipment or hand equipment. The piers are installed to appropriate depths and capacities, preventing any future settlement.

Rachel was being to notice a large shift in her block foundation wall and had large concerns of her home’s structure. MidAmerica Basement Systems offered a PowerBrace system to permanent stop the walls from bowing, and with the patented tightening system, offered to opportunity to straighten the wall over time. The PowerBraces were strategically placed along the bowing wall to give the proper stability needed for the wall, and to prevent damage to the rest of the home. Rachel now has a system to support her failing foundation wall.

Homeowner Kelly has lived in her home for the last six months. She noticed the bowing walls and thought that it was best to get professional advice.  The CarbonArmors are used to hold the wall so that it will not bow and the problem will not get worse.
