These days, every foundation contractor knows that carbon fiber wall repair systems are one of the best methods to fix bowing and cracking basement walls. But what you might not know is that all carbon fiber systems aren’t created equal.
Experienced contractors already know why. Many carbon-fiber systems on the market today are poorly made or simply hard to come by. Also, they don’t have the necessary adhesive support and anchoring to keep a wall in place, causing many to peel off the walls they were intended to reinforce.
So, when it comes to choosing the right carbon fiber wall repair system to install in the homes of your customers, you need something that will last long after you’re gone – The Carbon Guard System. The only carbon fiber wall repair system on the market today that features top and bottom anchors, and is readily available to foundation contractors everywhere!
Why Is Carbon Guard The Right Choice For Foundation Repair?
The Carbon Guard System is the culmination of over 20 years of design, application, and field testing. Carbon Guard was designed to address the shortcomings of its competitors – such as relying solely on adhesive or poorly designed top and bottom anchors.
Carbon Guard overcomes these flaws because it is made entirely different from its competitors. Many companies will use simple solid carbon fiber or carbon fiber fabric as the basis of their repair systems. While these materials are very strong, their adhesion to the wall is the failing point because 9 out of 10 of these materials are smooth, and give the adhesive nothing to grip onto.
Meanwhile, Carbon Guard uses 450 GSM carbon fiber in a unidirectional pattern that produces an open grid in its strapping. This pattern has two critical benefits over competitors. The open grid formation allows structural epoxy to penetrate through the strap for maximum adhesion to the foundation wall. Second, once the epoxy is dried in place, the strap is now bonded firmly in place. When attached to the patented top and bottom anchors, Carbon Guard can resist shear and tilting stresses that would peel competing products off the wall.
