Professional Foundation Wall Repair Solutions in Bar Harbor, Maine

Drainage Improvements

Drainage and Waterproofing Improvements

Correcting drainage issues and installing proper waterproofing systems helps relieve hydrostatic pressure and prevents future wall movement.

Wall Anchors

Wall Anchor Systems

Wall anchors are steel plates installed both inside the basement wall and in the soil outside the home. They are connected with steel rods and gradually tightened to stabilize or potentially straighten the wall.

Carbon Fiber Reinforcement

Carbon Fiber Reinforcement

Carbon fiber straps are bonded to the interior surface of the wall using high-strength epoxy. These materials reinforce the wall and prevent additional movement.

Steel I-Beams

Steel I-Beam Wall Bracing

Steel braces can be installed vertically along the wall and anchored to the floor and floor joists above. These braces provide structural support and prevent further inward movement.
