Foundation First Aid: Products to Rescue Your Home's Base
1. Push Piers:
Push piers are engineered to lift and stabilize settling foundations. They work by transferring the weight of your home to stable, load-bearing strata deep within the ground. These piers are a versatile solution for both residential and commercial properties, offering a permanent fix for foundation settlement issues.
2. Helical Piers:
Helical piers are designed for stabilizing and lifting sinking foundations. They consist of steel shafts with helical plates that are rotated into the soil, effectively anchoring your foundation to load-bearing strata. Helical piers are ideal for lightweight structures and can be installed year-round.
3. Steel Beams:
Steel beams, also known as I-beams, are used to reinforce and stabilize bowing or leaning foundation walls. These beams are secured to the floor joists and offer structural support, preventing further wall movement. This non-invasive solution can help restore your foundation's structural integrity.
4. CarbonArmor Straps:
CarbonArmor straps are an innovative solution for stabilizing bowing foundation walls. Composed of fiber-reinforced polymers, these straps are stronger than steel but much lighter and flexible. CarbonArmor straps are bonded to your foundation wall using specialized ArmorLock brackets, providing lasting structural support.
5. PowerBrace System:
The PowerBrace System is engineered to stabilize and potentially straighten bowing or tilting foundation walls. It consists of adjustable steel I-beams anchored to the floor and ceiling joists. The PowerBrace System is versatile, allowing for gradual wall realignment without any exterior excavation.
6. Geo-Lock Wall Anchors:
Geo-Lock Wall Anchors are an effective solution for stabilizing and potentially straightening bowed or leaning foundation walls. These galvanized steel anchors are installed in the earth outside the building and fastened to the interior foundation wall. They provide a permanent solution to wall movement.
7. Carbon Fiber Straps:
Carbon fiber straps are a cutting-edge solution for reinforcing and stabilizing foundation walls. These straps are adhered directly to the foundation using epoxy, providing strength and support without adding noticeable thickness to the wall.
