This homeowner in Salem, New Hampshire, was experiencing foundation issues where the foundation wall was bowing inward. The homeowners tried to sell the home a couple of years ago in the condition that it is in and were unsuccessful so they are going to repair the problem with the foundation. David Cormier of Erickson Foundation Supportworks came to the home to talk to the homeowners and options to repair the bow in their foundation wall. Crew Lead Jon Provost and his team came to the home and installed PowerBrace to stop the foundation wall from bowing. To ensure that the wall won't move anymore they poured a secondary retaining wall to keep the wall in place.
