This problem develops over a period of time and isn’t one that should be ignored. In most instances, bowing walls occur due to hydrostatic pressure; this takes place when there is water pressure pressing from outside, into the walls of the basement. This adds much more weight to the walls, than they are designed to bear and they buckle. At times, walls bow & fail when frost or clays expand the soil, resulting in pressure on the walls. If you have noticed Bowing and Buckling Walls in your basement, call All Aspects Waterproofing without delay. In cases where this problem has become too severe, replacing the foundation becomes the only permanent solution. However, this can quickly turn into a very invasive, time-consuming and expensive project and we won’t suggest it unless it is the only option.
