Album Description

Homeowners in South Vienna, OH, recently purchased their 75-year-old house, but its foundation needs some attention. Two of the walls were bowing inward, and were not properly supported by existing beams.

The homeowners contacted Ohio Basement Authority, and one of our expert crews installed 13 Structural Steel I-Beams. These beams support the wall and prevent any further inward movement where they are installed. They are also covered under a lifetime warranty.

The homeowners are happy their new house will be structurally stable for many years to come.
