Homeowners in Mora, MN reached out to DBS, the "All Things Basementy" company, for help stabilizing a portion of their basement foundation. Deep cracks and shifting were visible in their block foundation wall. The basement was partially finished and before making any more modifications, they wanted to ensure the home was structurally stable.

DBS Design Specialist, Henrik Makitalo went to the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the foundation repair. After inspecting the walls, Henrik created a custom plan to stabilize and prevent future damage. This consisted of 6 Supportworks PowerBrace™ wall support beams being installed along the failing basement wall. 

This home was repaired by our expertly trained basement repair crew. They anchored the PowerBrace™ steel I-beams to the concrete basement floor and attached them to the rim joists. Over time, this wall support system is tightened in an attempt to restore bowing walls to their original positions. PowerBrace™ wall support beams are installed with a 75-year nationally-backed warranty. 

This home is now permanently stable and safe from future structural damage.
