Carolina Basement Systems Before & After Photos

To address a bowing and cracked garage wall in Advance, NC, we installed the CarbonArmor Wall Repair System. A durable, non-invasive solution ideal for homes with limited access. This system uses high-strength carbon fiber straps bonded to the wall with a specialized epoxy, creating a strong and lasting hold without the need for exterior excavation or heavy equipment.

Because of carbon fiber’s incredible tensile strength, the straps effectively stop inward wall movement by distributing pressure evenly. This method is especially effective for walls bowing in the center that haven’t shifted at the top or bottom. Now, the homeowner has peace of mind knowing their garage wall is stabilized and structurally sound.

At this Advance, NC home, the retaining wall along the stairwell from the driveway to the backyard was starting to give way, creating serious safety concerns. Our team carefully demolished the failing brick staircase to access the area and installed 7 helical piers to stabilize and secure the wall. This solution provided lasting correction and restored structural support to the stairwell and driveway. The customer was thrilled with the results and the peace of mind that their home is now protected.

This crawl space was suffering from excessive moisture, high humidity, and a damaged vapor barrier that allowed musty odors and potential mold growth to spread through the home. The “before” photo shows torn plastic and exposed insulation, clear indicators of poor moisture control and air quality issues.

To restore a healthy environment, our team installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, the most efficient crawl space dehumidifier on the market. Combined with a durable CleanSpace vapor barrier, this system keeps humidity levels below 55%, preventing mold, wood rot, and musty odors. The “after” photo shows a fully sealed, clean crawl space environment now dry, energy-efficient, and protected for long-term structural health.

This home owner was having to sqeegee off his back porch after every rain because the dip in the concrete allowed for standing water. Luckily we got a crew out to him and leveled the slab with poly while still maintaining enough slope to run water away from the base of his home.

The ground that settled underneath this concrete walkway was causing shifting and made it uneven. We fixed these trip hazards with our PolyLevel foam and NexusPro sealant that leveled the concrete slabs and sealed the cracks.
