Carolina Basement Systems Before & After Photos

This retaining wall in Winston-Salem was showing major symptoms of failure, including spreading cracks and outward bowing caused by soil pressure. Left untreated, the wall could have collapsed and threatened the surrounding property. To solve the issue, our team installed GeoLock wall anchors, which permanently stabilize the wall by tying it back into stable soil. This solution stops further movement and helps restore the wall’s structural integrity, ensuring long-term protection for the home.

In this Winston-Salem home, signs of water intrusion were visible in the basement, with staining and dampness along the walls and floor conditions that can lead to mold growth, structural damage, and poor air quality if left untreated. To resolve the issue, our team installed a high-performance sump pump system with a battery backup, ensuring the basement remains dry even during heavy rains or power outages. The “after” image shows the clean, sealed installation with a new discharge system and protective wall liner, providing long-term moisture control and protecting the home’s foundation from future water damage.

In this Winston-Salem, NC home, the basement wall was showing signs of inward movement and bowing a common issue caused by soil pressure and moisture around the foundation. Our team installed GeoLock Wall Anchors, a permanent stabilization system engineered to stop further movement and help straighten the wall over time.

In the first photo, you can see the wall before the anchors were installed. The second photo shows the completed installation with the GeoLock plates securely fastened along the wall. These anchors work by extending into stable soil outside the home and applying counter-pressure to the failing foundation wall, restoring strength and safety to the space.

When problems with the foundation of this home occurred, the change in pressure and support resulted in cracking walls. These type of block walls, when the home starts to shift, crack easily and after we supported the foundation with piers, we were able to lift the home and release the pressure. This lift closed the cracked wall and released the stress put on it.

This formerly damp and humid crawl space got a brand new look and feel with our CleanSpace encapsulation system. Made from an ultra-durable polyethylene composition, our CleanSpace vapor barrier seals and protects against moisture and humidity - providing a brighter, drier, and healthier crawl space environment throughout.
