Wall Cracks
Wall cracks in a basement are often caused by foundation settlement, where the ground beneath the home shifts or settles over time, placing pressure on the walls. Other causes include moisture infiltration, which weakens the foundation and causes expansion or contraction, and poor construction practices, such as inadequate support during the building process, all of which can lead to structural damage.
Why Repairing Wall Cracks Is Crucial
Repairing cracks in basement walls is crucial for maintaining the structural integrity of your home, as untreated cracks can lead to further foundation damage, water infiltration, and mold growth. Addressing these issues promptly prevents more costly repairs, improves the safety and stability of your home, and helps maintain a dry, healthy living environment by preventing moisture and pests from entering.
During CarbonArmor Install
The process of installing the CarbonArmor Reinforcing System begins with a thorough inspection of the walls to assess any cracks or bowing. High-strength carbon fiber strips are then applied to the walls using a strong epoxy, ensuring a secure bond that stabilizes the foundation and prevents further movement. The system is completed with additional reinforcement, restoring the wall's integrity without the need for excavation, providing a long-term solution for foundation stabilization.
