Scope of work

What foundation wall repair typically includes.

Foundation walls fail when soil pressure pushes harder than the wall can resist — bowing, cracking horizontally, or leaning inward. Repair reinforces the wall using carbon-fiber straps, steel I-beam bracing, or wall anchors, depending on how far it's moved.

The matched specialist will give you a written scope and estimate after the free inspection.

  • Wall plumb survey and bow measurement
  • Carbon-fiber strap installation (for early-stage bowing)
  • Steel I-beam bracing (for moderate movement)
  • Helical wall anchors (for severe lean)
  • Drainage corrections to relieve future soil pressure

  • Walls that have shifted off the sill plate

FAQ

Foundation Wall Repair — common questions.

How much wall bow is too much?

Anything over ¼-inch deflection should be evaluated. Over 1 inch typically requires steel bracing rather than carbon fiber alone.

Can a bowing wall be straightened?

Sometimes — wall anchors can pull a wall back over many months as pressure relaxes. Beyond a certain point, replacement is the only option.

Does carbon fiber really work?

Yes, for early-stage bowing. Tested at 35,000+ psi tensile strength, properly installed straps stop further movement permanently.
