This home in Rice Lake, WI had bowing foundational walls due to soil expansion. The owner wanted to address this problem with a professional solution, so they trusted DBS to help.
Design Specialist Nicholas Corbin assisted the owner with a free, no-obligation estimate. After a careful inspection, Nicholas recommended our GeoLock™ Wall Anchoring System.
Foreman Osia Williams led the installation of this project with help from Co-Foreman Rowan Wentworth. Earth anchors are installed outside of the home, below the ground, and the steel plates are installed inside the home on the bowing wall. These systems are connected using a steel rod which stops any further movement and can also be adjusted in order to restore the wall back to its original position.
