This medical building in Dover, DE was referred to our company for structural repair. Upon inspection of the basement, it was discovered that there were numerous bowing walls in this 5000sqft building that needed correction ASAP. The best solution for this type of issue is to install our Carbon Armor Wall Stabilization System.
Our CarbonArmor straps are 10 times stronger than steel but are non-invasive due to their flexibility, allowing them to contour tightly against the foundation wall. When paired with the ArmorLock kit, these straps will immediately stabilize the foundation and prevent further movement. This system, paired together, also comes with a 25-year warranty against manufacturer defects and further bowing.
