Answer: Leise uses ECP Plate Anchors. ECP states that Plate Anchors are the most economical method for providing supplemental lateral force to help stabilize bowed and cracked walls affected by hydrostatic pressures.
Answer: Hydrostatic pressure occurs when there is excess water in the soil around your foundation / basement walls. As it builds up and saturates the soil it puts pressure on the foundation walls. This causes foundation walls to bow in and crack and water will then find it’s way in through these cracks into your basement. Loose soil can contain more water so you will see frequently that poorly compacted soil and hydrostatic pressure are the biggest causes of foundation problems.
