Compromised Foundation Reinforcement in Easton, PA

Wednesday, November 20th, 2024 by Amy Moore

Challenge

Foundation failure is a scary issue to face as a homeowner, especially when the foundation starts to shift, crumble, or collapse. This Easton, PA home was experiencing this type of severe foundation failure that left the home unsupported and unsafe. If signs of foundation failure are ignored, the foundation will eventually fail and collapse. Luckily, Quality 1st has a reinforcement system specifically designed for these extreme conditions, along with preventative solutions for earlier signs of failure. Our System Design Specialist Dane went out to assess the home before recommending the system that our Foreman Faustino and crew would install to restore the home's safety.

Solution

To address such a major failure in a home's foundation, Quality 1st has our EverBrace Wall Restoration System to offer a permanent support solution that shifts the home's weight load onto new, heavy-duty steel wall panels. EverBrace was designed for cases like this where brick, cinderblock, or stone foundations experience wall failure. Without any exterior disruption, EverBrace steel panels are installed on the interior of the compromised foundation wall and secured with steel beams. A specially designed foam is then injected behind the wall to fill the space and transfer the load from the failing wall to the new EverBrace system. This system is a powerful and permanent solution to the worst cases of foundation failure and will guarantee this home the support it needs!
