HAVE YOU NOTICED ANY WATER
COMING IN YOUR BASEMENT OR CRAWL
SPACE, OR CRACKS APPEARING IN
YOUR WALL, AND FOUNDATION.
NOW COULD BE THE TIME TO GET
AHEAD OF WHAT COULD BE A BIG
PROBLEM.
TODAY'S CI SPONSOR, WOODS
SYSTEM.
WE ARE TALKING ABOUT CRACKS IN
OUR FOUNDATION, AND BASEMENT.
AND HOW ARE YOU TOO TIM.
STRUCTURAL REPAIR OR NOT.
TYPICALLY WHEN YOU HAVE CRACKS,
AND YOU WILL HAVE CRACKS.
IF THEY START TO OFFSET.
IF YOU CAN HAVE A BUMP OR A WIDE
ENG OF THE CRACKS ESPECIALLY IN
THIS WINTER WHEN THE MOISTURE
GOT IN THE GROUND, AND IT FROZE,
THERE WAS AN EXTRA EXERTION ON
THE WALL.
THE BASEMENT CRACK MIGHT HAVE
GOTTEN BIGGER.
NOT EVERYONE IS ONE TO
FREAKOUT ABOUT, BUT YOU WANT TO
MAKE SURE THAT YOU UNDERSTAND
WHAT IS HAPPENING.
IT'S AN ONGOING PROBLEM.
LET'S FACE IT, IT'S NOT GOING TO
GET BETTER.
GALVANIZED STEEL, AMERICAN MADE
STEEL, AND IT WILL PERMANENTLY
SOLVE THE PROBLEM, IN A POURED
OR BLOCKED FOUNDATION, AND HAVE
A WRITTEN TRANSFERRABLE WARRANTY
IS THAT NOT -- THAT IS HEAVY,
ISN'T IT?
GOOD THING YOU WORKED OUT.
RIGHT.
THAT'S A BRACE BETWEEN THE
FLOOR JOISTS THAT GOES
VERTICALLY IT WILL FIT THE SIDE
OF THE WALL, AND IT WILL BRACE
THE FOUNDATION, AND IF THE FLOOR
JOIST IS RUNNING DIFFERENTLY
THEN WE HAVE ANOTHER PIECE OF
STEEL THAT REINFORCES, THIS, IF
THE FLOOR JOIST RUNS 90 DEGREES
TO THAT.
TO OF THAT FIXED AND REMEDIED,
YOU CAN HAVE THAT DONE FOR YOU,
AND YOU WILL HAVE A WRITTEN
WARRANT I IF YOU WANT TO
TRANSFER YOUR HOUSE, AND YOU
KNOW YOU WON'T HAVE ANY PROBLEMS
DOWN THE ROAD.
AND I WAS HOPING THAT YOU CAN
TELL US WHAT WE WERE LOOKING AT.
DIFFERENT CRACKS.
LIKE I SAID, MOST OF THEM WERE
LEAKING AND SOME OF THEM WERE ON
THE FOUNDATION ITSELF.
THE FLOOR FOUNDATION -- THE
POURED FOUNDATION WALL IS
LEAKING.
IF YOU RUB YOUR HAND ACROSS THE
CRACK, IT'S RELATIAVELY SMOOTH.
IF THERE'S AN OFFSET, A BUMP IF
THAT CRACK, AND YOU MONITOR
THAT, AND IT'S A HALF AN INCH
IN, THE POURED FOUNDATION WALL
IS GOING TO TIP IN.
AND WATER MAY NOT BE THE ONLY
PROBLEM.
IT COULD BE A SINKING OR
SETTLING ISSUE.
AND MAINTAIN THAT WATER ON
THE OUTSIDE IS ALWAYS BEST.
WATER AND RAIN ANYWAY.
GO OUTSIDE AND CHECK OUT YOUR
FOUNDATION WHEN IT'S RAINING.
EXTEND THOSE DOWN SPOUTS, AND
IT'S JUST NOT A WATER ISSUE, YOU
WANT TO KEEP YOUR FOUNDATION,
SAFE AND SOUND.
IS WINTER A GOD TIME TO MAKE
THESE REPAIRS.
WE CAN WORK ALL TIME AROUND.
I HAD A PICTURE OF THE GUYS
JACKHAMMERING THE FROST, AND
GETTING DOWN TO THE FREEZING,
AND IT'S FUNNY WHEN THE GUYS ARE
DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE YARD
JACKHAMMERING, TYPICALLY WE
WHAT DO THEY DO?
FIRST, CONTACT US FOR THREE
ESTIMATE.
AND WE WILL EVALUATE WHAT THE
BEST PRODUCT IS BEST, THE WALL
ANCHORING, AND IF THE NEIGHBORS
ARE TOO CLOSE, THEN WE NEED TO
USE THE BRACE SOMETHING SYSTEM
ON THE THE INSIDE, AND WE CAN
USE THE OTHER PLATE SYSTEM ON
THE OUTSIDE, AND WE CAN AVOID
PATIOS AND DOECKS, AS AND WE GET
24 FEET OUT AND NOT HAVE TO
DISTURB THE LANDSCAPING BEDS AND
DECKS AS WELL.
ALL OF OUR PROBLEMS SOLVED.
