EverBrace Installation For Damaged Walls in Philipsburg, NJ
Challenge
A homeowner in Phillipsburg, NJ reached out after noticing increasingly concerning changes along their foundation walls. What had once appeared to be isolated cosmetic issues had progressed into visible signs of structural movement: cracking block walls, inward bowing, and shifting throughout the foundation. Like many homeowners facing foundation movement, the concern extended beyond appearance. The homeowners recognized that continued deterioration could threaten the stability of the structure above and wanted a solution before conditions worsened further. Our System Design Specialist, Justin visited the home to complete a detailed foundation evaluation and determine the extent of the movement. During the inspection, it became clear that the block walls had experienced significant structural degradation. Rather than isolated cracking, the existing wall system was no longer providing dependable support and continued movement would likely place additional stress on the home over time.
Solution
Because of the condition of the walls, Justin recommended the EverBrace Wall Restoration System, a solution designed specifically for severely compromised foundation walls that need structural support and long-term stabilization. Foreman Faustino and the production team arrived ready to complete the restoration process and reinforce the failing foundation. Installation began with strategically positioning heavy-duty steel I-beams to establish a new structural support system. These beams serve as the framework that helps carry and redistribute loads away from weakened areas. Once the support structure was established, steel corrugated panels were installed across the damaged foundation wall surfaces. These panels work together with the steel supports to create a reinforced wall assembly capable of providing long-term stability. To complete the system, specialized rigid foam was injected behind the panels. This step is a critical part of the EverBrace process. It fills voids, creates continuous contact behind the wall, and transfers structural load from the deteriorating block walls to the newly installed support system. Together, these components created a new reinforced wall structure while reducing reliance on the compromised original walls.
