Foundation Repair Photo Album: Foundation Repair In Perth Amboy, NJ

This Perth Amboy, NJ, homeowner noticed indications of foundation settlement around their basement, as a result of ongoing water seepage, causing concerns about potential mold-growth and structural deterioration. The owner sought out a long-term repair solution, prompting them to contact our team of waterproofing experts. Our system design specialist Jonathan closely surveyed the area, to provide the most effective repair approach. Then our foreman Heriberto and his crew began installing our specially patented WaterGuard French Drainage System, PowerBrace Wall Repair System, CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System, and our TripleSafe Sump Pump System. Together these systems will eliminate foundation settlement issues, and transform this basement into a dry and healthy storage space!

Bowing Walls

The structural conditions of this basements walls were becoming increasingly weak overtime, this was a clear result of foundation settlement caused by persistent water intrusions.

During The Repair Process

The crew begins the process by drilling a trench around the entire perimeter of the basement.

Weep Holes

After the crew drills a trench, they start drilling weep holes along the bottom of the trench to release any trapped water.

WaterGuard Install

In order to properly install this WaterGuard, the crew carefully places it below the floor slab, resting on top of the foundation footing. This will ensure that the drainage system stays out of the "mud zone", where drains are known to clog with debris.

Installing TripleSafe

TripleSafe is installed after the crew excavates in a specific area of the basement. Then the sump pump is surrounded with clean washed stone, and a layer of cement is applied on top.

Installing PowerBrace

The PowerBrace is crafted with steel I-beams that are secured to the joists above the wall with steel brackets. This system is easily adjustable, allowing for tightening of the brace to attempt to restore the wall back to its original stabilized position.

During CarbonArmor Install

Using high strength epoxy resin, the carbon fiber straps are thoroughly bonded to the interior face of the wall.

After CarbonArmor

CarbonArmor is securely attached, this system includes flexible carbon fiber fabric straps that are up to 10 times stronger in tension than steel. This system will ensure that these walls are completely strengthened and reinforced against foundation settlement.

The Beauty Of PowerBrace

The PowerBrace Wall Repair System is the ideal way to effectively eliminate foundation settlement. With bowing, buckling, or tilting walls, installing a PowerBrace system can ultimately stop any further damage and potentially stabilize and strengthen the wall.

The Ultimate Waterproofing System

TripleSafe provides the highest level of protection against water seepage. This high-performance sump pump is built with three pumps, providing this homeowner with three times the amount of defense!
