A home in the Pittsburgh area was in dire need of foundation repair. The homeowners discovered that one of the basement walls was severely cracked, with horizontal, stairstep, and vertical cracks everywhere. Every time it rained, water was seeping inside where the wall and floor met.  The wall was also bowing inward from soil pressure and water. The homeowners wanted the issue solved before it worsened. 

The Basement Guys of Pittsburgh was one of the companies contacted for a free estimate One of our representatives visited the home and inspected the wall. They recommended the wall be destroyed, rebuilt, and stabilized with Rhino® Carbon Fiber Wall Supports. The current wall was too damaged to try and repair, but stabilizing the new wall would stop the problem from happening. 

The homeowners received other estimates, and after reviewing them, went with The Basement Guys of Pittsburgh! Our team tore down the old wall and rebuilt it, then installed 10 Carbon Fiber Wall Supports using epoxy resin to bond it to the wall. The wall was fixed, and the homeowners were satisfied with the results! Call The Basement Guys of Pittsburgh today for a free estimate in the Pittsburgh area.
