Foundation Wall Bracing

For years, homeowners would do foundation repair with wall bracing to hold their walls from pushing in further. We now have a basement wall repair system that will not only repair and hold the buckling and bowing walls it will actually push the bowed walls back again. Wall bracing can be done to different kinds of walls such as, block, poured concrete, wood, clay tile, etc. The Gorilla Wall Brace is the only system that is designed to push the wall back using three floor joists. This eliminates twisting and side pressure on the floor joists. This is a stronger and more secure system than wall bracing that only attaches to one floor joist. This gives you the safest and most secure basement repair. The Gorilla Wall Brace will permanently secure and restore your bowing foundation walls.

Buckling and Bowing Walls Made Secure

Bulging wall repair begins by fastening the floor bracket with heavy duty screw anchors to the basement floor, then attaching the pushing rod bracket to the floor joist every 4 feet. The tube bracket holders are attached to the 2 neighboring floor joists. This utilizes 3 floor joists, giving additional pushing power to the Gorilla Wall Brace. The Gorilla Wall Brace pushes the buckling wall back as the pushing rod applies pressure to the wall brace. By applying continued pressure on the buckled wall over a period of time, the bulging wall will be moved back. In cases of severe bowing wall damage, the foundation repair can be made to the basement walls by installing Gorilla Wall Braces and running a 6 inch trenching machine or a narrow back hoe outside of the moving wall. This allows the buckling walls to be pushed back by the installed wall braces and the bowing wall will be straightened the same day.

Pushing Walls Without Floor Joists

One of the advantages of the Gorilla Wall Brace is that it can be done inside the basement, year around and in most cases there is no digging up the yard. Often times Gorilla Wall Braces are less costly than other methods. Wooden floor joists are not the only place Gorilla Wall Braces can be used. Many of the newer houses with bowing walls have 16”-24" I joists made with 2" x 4" bridging. They can have the Gorilla Wall Brace system attached to them with minor modifications.
Gorilla® Wall Braces can be installed where there are no floor joists, such as basements that are constructed with spancrete at the ceiling. We have a special pushing bracket that can be attached to the spancrete in these situations.
Our Gorilla Wall Brace gives you the assurance and security that you can finish off your basement walls. The secure walls raise the value of your home and most importantly give you peace of mind you deserve. Don't wait, caved in bowing walls are painful and very costly.
