Photo Album: Using PowerBrace to support a bowing wall in Lynchburg, Virginia
In Lynchburg, Drew was dealing with bowing basement walls that needed additional structural support, as shown in the before photos. To permanently stabilize the affected walls, our team at Fortress Foundation Solutions installed 8 PowerBrace™ Wall Support Beams. PowerBrace™ systems are ideal for walls experiencing significant inward movement, providing strong reinforcement and the potential for wall straightening over time.
