How is my bowed basement wall straightened and stabilized?
– Excavation is done around the outer perimeter of the buckling wall. Temporary vertical braces are then secured to the inside of the wall and are used to gently push the wall back outward towards its proper position. The top row of blocks are cored on the outside and filled with steel reinforcement and a cement mixture to strengthen the wall in its new position. After the core mixture cures, the wall is backfilled and the temporary braces are removed.
