This house in Lynchburg had a retaining wall that was cracking and bowing in toward the steps to the basement door. The homeowner called Fortress Foundation Solutions to see what could be done to prevent any further issues. A Fortress System Designer went to the home and assessed the issues. The System Designer decided that two GeoLock Wall Anchors were needed to secure the wall in place. Wall anchors work by extending from your wall to the stable, hard packed soil beyond your home. They anchor into these stronger soils and brace the foundation wall, preventing further movement. Wall anchors are installed with minimal disruption to your lawn, and they won't damage the interior of your basement or take up usable space. Now this wall is stable and will not continue to move!
