Bowing Wall Repair in Lynchburg, Virginia
Challenge
Renea in Lynchburg, Virginia had become concerned about one of her basement walls after noticing cracking and signs of movement. Unsure how serious the problem was, she reached out to Fortress Foundation Solutions to have the wall professionally evaluated.
During our inspection, we found evidence of lateral movement along the wall, along with cracking that indicated pressure from the surrounding soil was beginning to affect the foundation.
Solution
To stabilize the wall and prevent further movement, we recommended our GeoLock® Wall Anchor System.
The GeoLock® system is designed to counteract the pressure pushing against foundation walls by anchoring them to stable soil away from the home. Once installed, the system provides strong, long-term support and helps protect against additional inward movement.
By the time the project was complete, Renea's basement wall was stabilized and properly reinforced. She now has peace of mind knowing the issue has been addressed with a lasting solution designed to protect her home for years to come.
