Challenge
A home in Wausau, WI had an accepted offer and a closing date set, but the buyers had concerns about the stair step cracks observed in the exposed block walls, and the deal was in jeopardy. I shot the plumb of the walls with my laser level and found ¾ inches of inward deflection in both the front and back walls.
Solution
Given the situation, our crew put together a solution using our Supportworks Geo-Lock Wall Anchor System, which allows us the flexibility to adjust location to accommodate wall obstacles and minimize finished wall removal.
Our crew stabilized the walls a few weeks after the new owners moved in; another foundational save. These new homeowners will never have to worry about their walls caving in at all!
