Stabilizing Failing Foundation Walls in Triangle, VA
Challenge
A homeowner in Triangle, VA, faced a critical issue with their property—failing foundation walls that threatened the structural integrity of their home. The compromise to their foundation caused visible damage and worry about the long-term safety and stability of the property. With concerns growing, the homeowner sought a solution that would not only address the immediate problem but also ensure lasting protection.
Solution
When NV Waterproofing and Foundation Repair stepped in, our team immediately assessed the extent of the foundation's damage. Understanding the urgency of the matter, we developed a strategic repair plan tailored to the homeowner’s needs. Our solution combined two innovative systems—PowerBrace and Carbon Armor—to stabilize and reinforce the failing walls.
- PowerBrace System: This system consists of steel I-beams that secure foundation walls in place and prevent further inward movement. It’s a reliable method that doesn’t require invasive measures like outside excavation, which was ideal for this project.
- Carbon Armor System: Utilizing high-strength carbon fiber straps, this system strengthens and reinforces the walls, offering a sleek yet powerful layer of stabilization. Known for its durability and minimal impact on the appearance of the foundation, Carbon Armor was the perfect addition to ensure robust reinforcement.
Together, these solutions provided immediate stabilization and long-term structural durability. Our team worked efficiently, ensuring that the homeowner experienced minimal disruption throughout the process.
Results
The results were both visually and structurally impressive. The foundation walls, once showing clear signs of stress and damage, were now stabilized and reinforced to withstand external pressures. The improvement was evident in the noticeable difference between the before and after photos.
NV Waterproofing and Foundation Repair successfully transformed a worrisome foundation issue into a structural success story. We not only restored the homeowner’s confidence in their property but also provided peace of mind through the durable, high-quality solutions we delivered.
