Mackenzie has a home in St. Catharines with a block foundation. the foundation wall is being waterproofed but before we do that, we have to address the bowing wall.
Omni basement Systems installed the Carbon Armor system from Supportworks. Carbon Armor is made up of two parts. A ArmorLock stap of carbon fiber which is attache by steel clip to the wall and the rim joist to prevent the wall from tipping and then a 7" wide strip of Carbon Fiber is adhered to the Block wall from top to bottom of the block foundation. The carbon Fiber staps are 20 times stronger than steel steel strapping.
Bob L. called Omni basement systems with concerns of support required in crawl space
Omni Basement Systems went to meet Bob to asses the rpoblems he was having. They determined that the crawlspace required a supplemental beam with 350 series smart jacks along with their Cleanspace Encapsulation system
Gert & Nina just moved into their St. Catharines home. They couldn't believe the eyesore that was their sump pump. Omni came out and installed the Supersump sump pump system. Not only it looks great with it's sealed lid, but it also has some incredible features. This system features a cast-iron, Zoeller sump that is strong and dependable and also an airtight lid with a high water watch alarm and an airtight floor drain.
Atte has a typical crawlspace in ST. Catharines with a dirt floor, failing floor supports and outside vents that let damp air in. The dampness is the cause of most of the problems. Omni Basement Systems added floor support under the min beam and a vapor barrier called Cleanspace. Cleanspace is a 20 mil thick liner that has 7 layers for strength and flexibility. There is also a layer that is an anti-microbial that will resist mold.
This St. Catharines, ON home had a wall crack from the corner of the window down. This is the most common place for a wall crack to develop. Omni Basement Systems used the patented Flexispan wall crack repair to seal the wall crack. This repair comes with a lifetime, fully transferrable warranty.
