What Causes Basement Walls to Bow in Cincinnati, OH and Nearby Areas?

Hydrostatic pressure and abundant soil are usually the reason for most bowing wall problems. Hydrostatic pressure increases as the clay soil around your foundation gets saturated with water and expands, exerting an enormous amount of pressure against your basement walls. The force will eventually exceed the strength of your walls, causing them to break, crack, and bow. During the dry season, clay soil will dry up and shrink away from your foundation, withdrawing support from your walls.

This constant wall movement can have devastating effects on your home’s structural integrity.

When you notice horizontal cracks in poured walls or stairstep cracks in block walls, contact Healthy Basement Concepts as soon as possible. A bowed basement wall only gets worse with time, so call today for the repair services your home needs before it’s too late!

Steel I-Beam Repair

The steel beams are installed against your basement wall with powerful steel brackets anchored to floor joists and the basement floor.
