Foundation Repair Photo Album: Repairing Bowing Cinder Block Foundation Wall in Limerick, Maine

One of the foundation walls in this Limerick, Maine camp was beginning to fail. When hydrostatic pressure pushes in against a cinder block foundation wall and the blocks begin to shift, you can see horizontal cracking or sometimes stairstep cracks, which are a big red flag. You can see from the before photos that this wall has both types of cracks, which indicate the wall is bowing in and could face total collapse if not repaired. We installed our patented StableLock Wall system to protect the home and prevent wall failure. Rather than excavating the old wall out and pouring a new one, we pour a new concrete wall next to the failing wall. Our specialized bracing supports the home and prevents the old wall from moving any further. StableLock is a less costly and disruptive repair, often completed in just 2-3 days.
