Causes of Lateral/Inward Movement On a Foundation Wall

 

  • Soil pressure – when the soil is saturated with water, it will expand and push on the foundation wall
  • Gutters not extended properly
  • Poor grade around the home
  • Drain tile installed previously can clog
  • Year Home was built, and codes applied at that time
  • Heavy rains causing Hydrostatic Pressure
  • And Many more
The Proven JLB Solutions

When it comes to preventing inward movement on your foundation walls, JLB employs either a Foundation Anchoring Solution or Wall Bracing Solution. Our Anchoring System is backed by a transferable warranty.

Wall Anchoring starts with installing a steel C – channel on the inside of the Wall, attached to a steel rod that runs out to stable soil. The steel rod is then embedded in a continuous trench of concrete as the wall anchor point. This provides tremendous weight and surface area for the Anchor to act as a counterbalance to support the leaning or tipping foundation wall.

This anchoring system is by far the strongest system on the market and is a must in our area due to weather and expansive clay-based soils. 

It is important to note that your foundation is supposed to support your house. The home isn’t supposed to support your foundation walls.
