Ashland, WI homeowners of a 100-year-old house noticed cracks and bowing in his basement walls 15 years ago. They initially installed an iron bar along one wall, but still noticed cracking and bowing throughout the basement walls. They were wanting to start renovations on the wall and peace of mind knowing the walls have been permanently stabilized, so they trusted DBS to get the job done right.
Our DBS Design Specialist, James Miller, visited the home in Ashland and gave the homeowners a free, no obligation estimate for a permanent solution for their home. James suggested the use of our PowerBrace™ Wall Repair System and our GeoLock® Wall Anchor System. With the use of both of these systems, the walls of the home will be permanently stabilized and the bowing wall can be straightened over time.
DBS Forman, Osia Williams, and his crew then installed 9 PowerBraces™ and a GeoLock® to straighten and permanently stabilize the basement walls. The homeowners can now have a piece of mind knowing DBS has helped permanently stabilized their walls and can now get started on renovations!
