Repairing a Bowing Foundation Wall in Calais, Maine

Many homes in Maine are built on old fieldstone wall foundations, and this one in Calais, Maine was no exception. Hydrostatic pressure was causing a wall to bow in, and the homeowners wanted to find a solution before they experienced total wall failure. We installed our StableLock Wall system, where we pour a new concrete wall with patented bracing to stabilize the home. The new wall is poured directly next to the failing wall, preventing it from shifting any further. By doing this, homeowners do not have to undergo any major excavation or jacking up their home, which is not only disruptive but quite costly. Most StableLock Wall projects are complete in 2-3 days, with minimal disruption to the homeowners.
