Brian experince foundation settllement in his St catharines house. It was getting worse over the past couple years so he called Omi Basement Systems to see how it could be repaired.
Omni along with a P. Eng engineer came up with a plan for Supportwoks Push Pier System.
Pictured is the crack that formed at the corner of the window.
Derek has a crawlspace in Ridgeway, ON. The floor is soft in places and un-level as well. Omni Basement Systems installed the galvanized Smartjacks and a supplemental beam to support the floor. The current supports were merely blocks that had been shimmed a multiple of times.
Bob has a house in Niagara Falls, ON, with a large crack in the poured concrete foundation. The crack's size and angle determined that the wall was tipping in and needed to be supported. Along with waterproofing, Omni Basement Systems installed PowerBraces to support the wall. PowerBraces are fully galvanized "I" beams bolted to the footing and then a specially designed bracket by Supportworks connects it to the floor joist system. A large adjustment bolt can be used to put a bowing or tipping wall back in place over time.
Lynn has inherited her fathers home and she found out that there is multiple foundations issues. One of the issues is bowing walls from expansive soils. There are multiple cracks in the wall. Omni Basement Systems is adhering 7" wide carbon fiber to the wall. The system is call Carbon Armor because it protects your wall from bowing any further. To protect the strengthen wall from tipping in, We install a carbon fiber strap to the joist header.
Ken in Fort Erie has a basement and a crawlspace. because of moisture, his floor were sagging over the crawlspace. Omni BAsement Systema add a Smartjack under his main beam. The Smartjack comes with a large plate over the soil and a galvanized jack under the beam.
