Foundation Repair Photo Album: Cracked Basement Wall Stabilized with CarbonArmor and BrightWall in Mantachie, MS

Randy B. of Mantachie, MS—who also serves as a Mississippi State Representative—contacted us initially about settling concrete around his pool deck. While discussing his broader property concerns, Randy mentioned cracking in his basement wall and expressed interest in stabilizing the structure before considering any finishing work in the future. Although he hadn't experienced recent water intrusion, he wanted a long-term solution that would enhance both the appearance and integrity of the space, especially with plans to eventually renovate the basement. Upon inspection, we found the basement wall had visible cracks but no active leakage. We recommended a two-pronged approach: CarbonArmor® to stabilize and reinforce the wall, and BrightWall® paneling to improve appearance and prepare for any future basement finishing. CarbonArmor® is a high-strength, carbon fiber-reinforced polymer that permanently stabilizes bowing or cracked walls without invasive excavation. BrightWall®, a clean, white waterproof wall panel, was installed over the surface to cover cosmetic flaws and block water stains from view—creating a cleaner, more finished look that Randy and his wife could build on later. With the CarbonArmor® system securing the structural integrity of the basement wall and BrightWall® providing a moisture-resistant, visually upgraded finish, Randy now has peace of mind that his foundation is protected and future renovations are fully supported. Should water intrusion ever reoccur, his basement is already prepped for an easy upgrade to a full waterproofing system. Noticed cracks in your basement walls?
