Residential Photo Album: Leaning Garage Wall is Saved, Uxbridge, ON

In Uxbridge, Ontario, the back wall in a garage was leaning outwards. The homeowners were extremely concerned the wall would collapse at any moment. They decided to contact Clarke Basement Systems to get a recommendation about how to fix the wall. One of our most experienced System Design Specialists, Chris Luke, met with the homeowners to review options to straighten the wall to its original position. Chris' recommendation featured two concrete repair systems. The first system included four helical tiebacks to straighten and stabilize the garage wall. If voids appeared during the installation of the helical tiebacks, Chris suggested a second procedure – our PolyLevel® Injection System. The crew injects polyurethane into voids under the garage floor, stabilizing the entire project area. The homeowners breathed a sigh of relief when they realized the wall would be fixed. Check out the results:
