Carbon Fiber Wall Reinforcement in Upper Arlington, Ohio

Our services

Upper Arlington is one of Central Ohio’s most prestigious inner-ring cities, located directly west of Columbus along the Scioto River. Known for its Tudor Revival and Colonial homes, mature tree canopy, high property values, and a deeply engaged community, Upper Arlington has a housing stock that dates predominantly from the 1920s through the 1950s. These stately older homes carry tremendous value and character — and they also carry the foundation vulnerabilities that come with age, clay soils, and decades of seasonal moisture cycling.

Why Upper Arlington’s Older Homes Face Foundation Challenges

Upper Arlington’s housing stock is among the oldest in the Columbus metro area outside of inner-Columbus neighborhoods. Many homes were built during an era when concrete block and early poured concrete were the standard for residential foundations. These materials have performed well for decades, but the cumulative effect of Franklin County’s clay soils pressing against walls through 70 or 80 or more wet-dry cycles has taken a measurable toll.

Properties near the Scioto River — particularly in the southern portions of Upper Arlington along Reed Road and Fishinger Road — experience elevated groundwater and seasonal floodplain influence. The hilly terrain throughout UA also means that some properties receive concentrated stormwater runoff from uphill neighbors, compounding the moisture burden on individual foundation walls.

Preserving Historic Character With a Non-Invasive Repair

Upper Arlington homeowners have good reason to be protective of their properties’ historic character. Many homes in the community are architecturally significant, with mature landscaping, established gardens, and brick or stone hardscape that represent decades of investment. Excavation-based foundation repairs would be inappropriate and disruptive in this context.

Carbon fiber wall reinforcement delivers everything homeowners in Upper Arlington need — a permanent, engineered solution — without touching anything outside the basement. High-strength straps are bonded to the interior wall surface using structural epoxy, immediately halting movement and providing long-term reinforcement. In finished basements, the repair can be covered with drywall or paneling, making it completely invisible.
