Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

A homeowner in New Concord, OH wanted to finish her basement but realized the walls were cracked and bowing. She wanted to take care of this problem first before covering up the problem with drywall. She called Mid-State Basement Systems to come out and provide a free estimate on repair for the walls. One of our inspectors, Mitch Mink, visited her home to investigate the situation and told her that carbon fiber strips would be the best solution. Carbon fiber is a material with a very high tensile strength, this means it is nearly impossible to break it with pressure. We attach these to a bowing or cracked wall to prevent any further inward movement.

The homeowner decided this was a great solution and went with our company for the project. Now, the walls are stabilized and she can move on with her basement finishing project.

The CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System, developed with technology from the Army Corps of Engineers, stabilizes bowing and cracking foundation walls, similar to how bomb shelters, skyscrapers, and bridges are reinforced. Safe to say these basement walls are stabilized permanently!
