Carbon Armor Straps to Save Wall in Middletown

This homeowner in Middletown, PA contacted our office with concerns of a bowing cement block wall in his basement. Liberty Basement Systems was able to quickly dispatch a Certified Inspector to the property to provide a thorough interior and exterior inspection of the property. It was recommended that Liberty Basement Systems install the CarbonArmor Strap System to Secure the wall and we could also cover the wall with our CleanSpace system to provide any protection from moisture protruding through the cement block in to the area.

The CarbonArmor® Wall Reinforcing System is a state-of-the-art solution for bowing and cracking foundation walls. Using the same technology the Army Corps of Engineers developed to reinforce bomb shelters, skyscrapers, and bridges, we use CarbonArmor® to stabilize your basement walls.

The CarbonArmor® System includes flexible carbon fiber fabric straps that are up to 10 times stronger in tension than steel. Using high strength epoxy resin, the carbon fiber straps are bonded to the interior face of the wall. The straps will stabilize the wall. This system requires no exterior excavation, installs quickly, and won't impact future basement finishing.

The homeowner was thrilled with the results and the wall is permanently reinforced.
