Problems with foundations in PAPINEAUVILLE, Qc

Challenge

Our client had a problem with the walls of her foundation due to the high pressure exerted.

After searching over the internet for a solution to her problem, our client had the opportunity to see the services offered by Systèmes Sous-sol Québec and decided to book a free estimate from our specialist.

Once there, an assessment of the situation and an in-depth explanation of the most suitable solution was presented to the client.

Solution

It was important to level the foundation wall because it was no longer straight. The pressure exerted was in the process of arching the foundation wall. If left untreated, the problem will only get worse.

PowerBraces were the solution for our client. The foundation wall had to be supported from the inside and straightened so that it regained its original shape.

With a unique fixing system, the PowerBrace initially supports the wall, the objective at first is to stabilize the foundation wall. Once this step is completed, our team tightens the PowerBraces in order to return foundation walls to their original positions.

Thanks to our solution, our client can once again enjoy her house with peace of mind knowing that her foundation walls have been finally straightened.
