The owner of this home in Mountain Iron, MN had issues with their basement foundation walls. There was a large degree of bowing and a horizontal crack split the wall in half. The owner reached out to DBS after being referred to us by a friend.

A Design Specialist went to the home to conduct a free no-obligation estimate. After a thorough inspection, the Design Specialist explained that as the basement walls settled over time, it caused cracks in the garage flooring above. The horizontal cracks occurred as the fill soil outside of the basement walls settled and applied pressure, bowing the walls inward. 

A Foreman led the installation of this project. With the help of a crew, they installed 12 PowerBrace™ I-beams to permanently stabilize the walls. The PowerBrace™ Wall Bracing System is backed with a 75-year warranty against movement to ensure peace of mind.
