When we bought this house, we knew it came "as-is". So with our tax return, we decided that the most beneficial thing was to have the basement repaired. Today was the first day with the guys on the job! Here are some pictures of what they are doing so far...
Inserting 6 wall anchors on the east side of the house...
What the anchors look like in the ground, they are about 3 feet down
What the anchors look like inside - they are connected to the large plates outside with a huge bolt about 8-13 feet long from the house to the plate.
The beginning of the excavation of the west wall. That wall is the worst and needs to be actually straightened first!
