Carbon Fiber Reinforcement: Stabilize Your Foundation
Your foundation walls carry the weight of your entire house, and after years of use, your foundation walls can start to show signs of stress. Tree roots or hydrostatic pressure can cause these foundation walls to crack. These structural issues must be addressed as soon as possible to avoid excessive repair costs and protect the foundation from further damage.
A very effective way to address this situation is to use Carbon Fiber to help strengthen the walls and prevent them from cracking or bowing further.

We provide structural foundation repair services to keep your basement foundation strong and prevent further damage to the foundation walls.

From almost five decades of industry experience, we know how to create a strong foundation free of cracks. If you require foundation repair or foundation reinforcement, call us today!
Benefits of Using Carbon Fiber Strapping
Carbon Fiber has one of the highest tensile strengths known to exist, and Carbon Fiber is corrosion-resistant. It also provides a much higher thermal capacity than traditional materials, making it a superior repair choice in some applications. Flexible Carbon Fiber wrap can be used over any shape or size. Also, the process is quick and far less obtrusive than a complete foundation rebuild.
After the repair, the overall available space in the basement is almost the same, and the final finish is flat and smooth and can be easily painted over. Carbon Fiber requires little maintenance because it is nearly ten times stronger than steel and is non-corrosive. Plus, no heavy equipment is needed during the repair process.
In conclusion, using Carbon Fiber to repair your foundation is a low-cost process that provides excellent strength and durability to the foundation walls. It helps avoid further cracks in the wall and is nearly invisible after completion. It is almost 1/4th of an inch thick and can be painted over. Since it needs little to no maintenance, it is one of the easiest and most effective solutions for fixing foundation wall cracks.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
Some Kind Words From Our Customers
Anthony Brown

We had a leak from two sources in our furnace room, that occurred after a moderate to heavy rainfall. We hired GJ Macrae to excavate by the outside wall, repair the cracks and protect the wall with a membrane and mesh. Part of the trench had to be dug by hand, due to a gas line, and part could be done by machine. The GJ Macrae team were all very skilled and professional, and completed the job in three days. Now the trench has been refilled with the earth and gravel and it will take some time for the ground to settle. We have had a few heavy rains since the job was completed, and our basement is now completely dry! We highly recommend GJ Macrae!

From our initial discussion with Dean through to the completion of the project I was most impressed with knowledge and professionalism. We had foundation damage from a tree root and they took the time to explain what was required and the steps involved in rectifying the situation. I highly recommend GJ MacRae for any foundation work you may need.

Honest, courteous, thorough, professional, reliable, on-time, clean and trustworthy. Solved our home’s basement water concerns caused from living on the flood plain (water table). Would definitely recommend GJMacRae Ltd as the company to fix your wet basement. Dean and his crew’s attention to detail solved the various challenges of our 91 year old home.

Dean, came out right away after we noticed water in our basement and provided an estimate. Communication with him was easy and he answered all my questions. Work was done within the week. I had a great experience and will recommend to others.

Gavin and his team did a great job. Right from quoting the job I had confidence they can do the job well and had the experience. Great videos on their website really help you understand what’s involved in foundation repair.

Job was done in 2 days which I was amazed it could be done that quickly! That’s a lot of pails of concrete and rock that had to be shuttled in and out of the house!
The guys were all very friendly and let me know everything that was being done and answered all my questions!
The bowed wall looks solidly supported now with carbon fibre strapping and the water found beneath the floor is now being safely routed through newly installed
Plastic Weeper to our sump.
We now have peace of mind that we can finish the basement with no leaks or crumbling walls!
Thankyou Gavin, Maggi, Ricardo and Jay!

We would like to express our gratitude to G.J. McRae for the exceptional job they did in restoring our peace of mind. Every time it rained or snowed, our basement would leak, causing us great distress. However, the crew from G.J. McRae arrived promptly, worked diligently, and efficiently resolved the issue. They even left our backyard in excellent condition, cleaning up after themselves. We cannot thank you enough for the outstanding service and for making us feel confident that the problem is now completely resolved.
We are so happy to be able to not worry about this any longer.

Workers were on time and professional. Quality and value for money. My only issue was the concrete poured was a little uneven causing a small lip near the drain. We managed to smooth it out. Would highly recommend GJ MacRae Foundation Repair.
