Questions and Answers

How does the DFNDR Brace System stabilize bowing basement walls?

The DFNDR Brace System is a wall anchor solution that uses steel beams anchored into the foundation footing and connected to your home’s main structure. It counteracts the inward pressure from soil or hydrostatic pressure, stabilizing the wall over time. Unlike temporary fixes, this system provides long-term correction, and we handle installation as part of our structural repair services. We offer free estimates to assess your specific wall condition and recommend a custom solution.

What should I do if my Gahanna basement has water damage from a sump pump failure or sewage backup?

First, ensure your safety by turning off power and avoiding contact with standing water. Then call us immediately. As local experts, we handle sewage backup and groundwater intrusion frequently in Gahanna. We extract water, dry the area, and disinfect using professional-grade equipment. We’ll also inspect your sump pump and recommend repairs or upgrades to prevent recurrence. Our team prioritizes prompt, thorough restoration to minimize mold risk and structural damage.

Can you repair a foundation crack in my home near Creekside Plaza or Gahanna Woods?

Absolutely—we serve all Gahanna neighborhoods, including areas near Creekside Plaza and Gahanna Woods Nature Preserve. For foundation cracks, we first assess whether the crack is structural or non-structural. Common fixes include epoxy injection for non-structural cracks or carbon-fiber straps for minor movement. For more serious bowing or leaning walls, we install our DFNDR Brace System. Our free estimate includes a thorough inspection, so we can recommend the right repair for your home.
