Before & After Photos

Sharon has a house with a block foundation that is showing signs of bowing in Milton, ON. Phil from Omni Basement Systems recommended using CarbonArmor for wall stabilization. CarbonArmor is 7" wide strips of Carbon Fiber that is epoxied to the wall. Then the lower blocks on either side is filled with grout to solidify the wall 

Kari R Moved into their new house 11 years ago and started noticing cracks in the foundation and brick work. since the house was new they contacted the builder and they had a basement wall crack fixed by another company through Tarion warantee. The cracks on the exterior got more noticeable and a crack on the concrete slab floor was present. The customer contacted a contractor before calling Omni Basement systems but they could not help. 

The customer then called Omni Basement Systems and one of our highly trained estimators came to see her. After a thorough inspection of the house and foundation and hiring an Engineer to assisit with design of a sytem, Omni was ready to go ahead with resolving her issues. 

What Omni Basement Systems determined was that one side of the house had settled and had dropped.

The solution was to install Foundation Supportworks inc Push Pier supplementary support systems to support the footing from settling any further. Once this was installed on the customers foundation wall, Omni Basement systems was able to apply force to not only support the foundation but lift it back into original position. 

The customer is very pleased with the result and the workmanship on the job and with communication with our staff members. 

Brian experince foundation settllement in his St catharines house. It was getting worse over the past couple years so he called Omi Basement Systems to see how it could be repaired. 

Omni along with a P. Eng engineer came up with a plan for Supportwoks Push Pier System. 

Pictured is the crack that formed at the corner of the window. 

Alaine & Robert has a house in St. Catharines, ON with a dirt floor crawlspace. Like most houses with this type of foundation, the floors are sagging because of moisture and poorly supported floors. Omni Basement Systems installed the very strong SmartJacks in the crawlspace. The smartJacks are made from fully galvanized steel so they are rust free. They are designed to hold 30,000lbs each.  Omni also installed a supplemental beam to carry the load across the floor system. The SmartJacks are also fully adjustable so you can always make sure that your floor stays level over time. 

Bob has a house in  Niagara Falls, ON, with a large crack in the poured concrete foundation. The crack's size and angle determined that the wall was tipping in and needed to be supported. Along with waterproofing, Omni Basement Systems installed PowerBraces to support the wall. PowerBraces are fully galvanized "I" beams bolted to the footing and then a specially designed bracket by Supportworks connects it to the floor joist system. A large adjustment bolt can be used to put a bowing or tipping wall back in place over time.
