Waterproofing and Wall Support in Fredericksburg, VA
Challenge
The homeowner faced a challenge regarding a slightly bowed wall in their basement, with a small crack of approximately 0.25" between the concrete blocks. This wall is located adjacent to their driveway, where there is some separation as well. Fortunately, there is no water seepage or basement flooding caused by the crack. However, before water becomes and issue they wanted to find an immediate solution.
Solution
To address the issue of further cracking in the foundation, our team of skilled professionals implemented a comprehensive and innovative solution that would provide long-lasting stability. After careful assessment and analysis, we decided to utilize a carbon armor system, known for its exceptional strength and durability.
This cutting-edge technology involves the application of carbon fiber strips to reinforce the existing foundation, effectively preventing any future cracks or structural weaknesses. The carbon fiber material is lightweight yet incredibly strong, making it an ideal solution for strengthening foundations.
In addition to the carbon armor system, we also employed Nexus Pro, a high-quality polyurethane sealant, to repair all the existing cracks in the foundation. Nexus Pro is specifically designed to withstand the pressures and movements commonly associated with foundation settling, ensuring a seamless and lasting repair.
