BOWED WALLS
Bowing and tilting foundation walls should NOT be left that way!
A sinking, heaving or cracking foundation can cause significant damage and expense.
Not all warranties are created equal - ask us about ours!
Bowed Walls? Cracked Walls?
Pressure from outside your foundation walls from expansive soil saturated with water can create force your walls were not designed to withstand. This tremendous force can cause 'bowing in' at the foundation wall top or bottom. Ignoring the issue long enough can lead to eventual foundation wall collapse.
LAN has simple, warranted solutions depending on your particular foundation issue and needs.
LAN has the solution!
Introducing the StabilSTRAP system by LAN Concrete Technology.
This innovative system can be used to repair bowing block and damaged concrete walls. StabilSTRAP actually improves the overall strength of your foundation walls once installed.
It 'stitches' or bonds fissures caused by temperature expansion and contraction. StabilSTRAP can also be used to repair concrete floors, piers, posts and beams without major disruption or mess. This system is an extremely cost-effective strengthening solution.
We know it sounds hard to believe that such a thin product, when applied correctly, can permanently fix and actually strengthen walls, floors, concrete beams and piers. StabilSTRAP is new to the residential foundation market.
It's flexible and can conform to different surfaces but when it's bonded to the concrete it has absolutely no stretch or give.
It can be cut and fit to your particular crack issue and applied in any direction without loss of strength. StabilSTRAP is a low profile, cost effective solution that can even be painted.
Its been used for years for applications on bridges, airplane wings and spacecraft. All situations that have to endure heat, vibration and huge stresses. It used to be too expensive, difficult to manufacture and apply for the residential market...but now we can offer it to our customers as a very effective cost efficient solution.
How is StabilSTRAP used and how does it work?
This innovative system can be used to repair bowing block and damaged concrete walls. It can 'stitch' or bond fissures caused by temperature expansion and contraction in concrete floors and walls. StabilSTRAP can also be used to repair concrete piers, posts and beams without major disruption or mess.
Once applied, the wall or floor is significantly STRONGER than it was before - thereby alleviating the worry of additional cracking or bowing.
Major Benefits to StabilSTRAP
No heavy equipment needed.
It does not require drilling, bolting or excavation! This factor alone allows for minimal site accommodation. In your home, less mess and disruption!
No messy concrete.
In a commercial application, this translates to less production loss and down time that effects the bottom line.
StabilSTRAP is a state-of-the-art system processed into a material that is impossible to stretch. Therefore it will resist pressure and prevent further cracking and bowing.
StabilSTRAP Solution is a low profile solution.
It doesn't detract from the look or alter the amount of space you have to work with. (other systems, after application, can take up 4-10' of space off the wall and usable space out of the room)
This system is an extremely cost-effective solution that also adds additional strength after application!
Tie Back System
In certain foundation and soil circumstances a Tie Back System is used in conjunction with StabilSTRAPS for the best permanent solution to your foundation issue.
The Tie Back System strengthens foundations and is a structural element extending back into the soil behind the wall where there is no support from above.
- Stop bowing basement walls
- Secure retaining walls
- Soil nails and steep grades
- Excellent solution for modular homes or trailers
