Before & After

Geo-locks secures a safe walk way in Hagerstown, MD

As seen in the before photo, this local homeowner in Hagerstown, Maryland started noticing cracks forming in the cinderblock retaining wall that leads to the stairwell entryway of the basement apartment he rents out. Over time, the cracks worsened and the wall began to look like it was caving in.

Brian spent a good chunk of time contemplating whether to call us, but once his tenants started bringing the issue to his attention, he knew it was time to act. He reached out online to schedule a free evaluation of the wall.

We sent one of our expert system designers out to inspect the issue, and he immediately knew what needed to be done — a Geo-Lock Wall Anchor system. Geo-Lock Wall Anchors use the strength of the stable virgin soil beyond the wall to permanently stabilize it and, in some cases, even pull the wall back toward its original position.

As seen in the after photo, this project took just one day to complete and required two Geo-Lock Wall Anchors to secure the wall. Now Brian and his tenants have peace of mind knowing the stairwell has been permanently stabilized.
