Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This sinking and cracking foundation in Mantua, New Jersey suffered from vertical wall cracks due to water pressure on the outside of the walls. With the installation of our patented PowerBrace System, forward movement has been stopped and the wall will slowly be put back into its original position!

After the foundation wall began to bow and split in Elmer, NJ, the homeowner called Dry Guys to restabilize their basement. The Dry Guys Team installed a PowerBrace Wall Repair System to straighten out the walls. What makes the steel beams special is over time, the PowerBrace System can be tightened to make bowing or tilting walls straighter and more vertical.

The previous homeowner used bricks and stone to hold up the foundation of this Elmer home. The joints were weak and the beams were sagging. Our team installed a series of our Smart Jacks to properly reinforce, strengthen, and lift the foundation of the house.

Once humidity and mold get to the wood, it will begin to decay, leaving the wood soft and weak. Here, the wooden floor joist in Westville, New Jersey, began to sag and was unable to support the foundation. In an attempt to stabilize the joist, the homeowner placed cinderblocks in his crawlspace to act as a support post. This is only a temporary fix as cinder is porous and will begin to crack and break as the high humidity gets to the blocks. In place of these blocks, the Dry Guys Team installed several SmartJack Crawl Space Support Posts. The posts are fully adjustable, install fast, and are a permanent solution to sinking uneven floors.

These basement walls in Deptford, New Jersey, have finally begun to succumb to the pressure put on them from expanding soil. A horizontal crack can be seen going around the entire basement, threatening the foundation to collapse. With the help of Dry Guys, this inward movement was immediately stopped with the installation of the PowerBrace Wall Stabilization System. These steel I-Beams also have the potential to return the basement walls back into their original position through periodic servicing. Bonus feature, they maintain a neat, clean appearance!
