Photo Album: Bowing Wall Repair in Robards, KY

After noticing their garage wall begin to bow inward, these homeowners in Robards, KY became pretty concerned with the safety of their home. Wall failure can be caused by a number of different things but in this homeowners case, the soil around their home was putting a lot of pressure on their foundation walls. There is nothing on the inside of the garage wall that pushes back to counter that pressure so the wall had no choice but to begin bowing inward. After seeing Healthy Spaces' TV ads and reading our reviews online, they contacted us to see how we could help them. Once they met with one of our inspectors who explained our installation process, the owners were eager for our foundation crew to permanently stabilize their foundation walls. Installers of our foundation crew, Tad and Garrett, installed 9 PowerBrace's around the walls of the garage. Now this Robards, KY homeowner no longer has to worry about the structure of their home.

Causes of Bowing Foundation Walls

If there's constant pressure on your foundation walls from the outside, but the only thing holding up your foundation wall is the wall itself, bowing can occur. Hydrostatic pressure, expansive clay soil, and frost can all exert enough pressure to cause walls to lean or even collapse.
