Protect Your Home from Iowa’s Harsh Soil and Shifting Seasons
Des Moines homes face serious foundation and water problems due to Iowa’s clay-rich soil and dramatic freeze-thaw cycles. Whether you're seeing bowing walls, basement leaks, or sinking concrete, these signs point to more serious structural damage that won’t fix itself.
At Anchored Walls, we specialize in foundation repair, basement waterproofing, crawl space encapsulation, and concrete leveling, all tailored to Des Moines conditions. With more than 40 years of local experience, we deliver lasting solutions backed by our Life of the Structure Warranty and honest, upfront pricing.
Don’t wait until minor issues become costly repairs. Contact our Des Moines team today to schedule your free foundation inspection and find out why so many Iowa homeowners trust Anchored Walls.
Iowa’s wet springs, dry summers, and freeze-thaw winters cause Des Moines soils to expand and contract, putting your foundation under constant stress. Over time, this leads to problems like bowing basement walls, horizontal cracks, sticking doors, and uneven floors.
If you’ve noticed signs like these, your foundation may be shifting or settling beneath the surface. Anchored Walls offers proven solutions for Des Moines homes, including wall anchor systems, piering, and structural reinforcement. It’s all designed to stop ongoing damage and restore long-term stability.
Our wall anchor systems are especially effective for bowing walls caused by lateral soil pressure. These heavy-duty steel anchors are installed outside the home and connected to interior plates, gradually pulling walls back into position and preventing future movement.
With more than 40 years of local experience, our foundation specialists understand Iowa soil, and we’ll recommend the right repair for your home, not a one-size-fits-all fix. Every job is backed by our Life of the Structure Warranty for true peace of mind.
Heavy rain, melting snow, and rising groundwater can all lead to basement leaks in Des Moines homes, especially those with older or incomplete waterproofing systems. Iowa’s clay-rich soil holds moisture and expands against foundation walls, increasing the risk of water intrusion during wet seasons.
If your basement smells musty after a storm, or if you’ve noticed water stains or damp floors, your home may already be compromised. Even minor moisture issues can lead to mold growth, wood rot, and poor indoor air quality that affects the rest of your home.
Anchored Walls provides full-service basement waterproofing in Des Moines, including interior drainage systems, sump pump installation, and wall protection upgrades. Every system we install is custom-designed to stop water at its source and keep your basement dry year-round.
By addressing the root cause, not just the symptoms, we help Des Moines homeowners protect their property, improve air quality, and regain the use of valuable lower-level space.
In many Des Moines homes, the crawl space is out of sight and often, out of mind. But moisture and structural problems beneath your floor can quietly spread damage throughout the home, leading to sagging floors, mold growth, and rising energy bills.
Common signs of crawl space issues include musty odors, soft or uneven floors, and visible condensation on HVAC ducts or insulation. In some homes, moisture seeps in through open vents or bare soil, while in others, standing water or wood rot may go unnoticed for years.
Anchored Walls offers complete crawl space repair and encapsulation solutions for Des Moines homeowners. We seal out ground moisture, install vapor barriers, and reinforce weakened supports to create a stable, dry environment beneath your home.
Whether your crawl space needs full encapsulation, targeted repairs, or new support systems, our team will design the right fix to protect your home from the ground up.
Shifting soils and freeze-thaw cycles are hard on outdoor concrete in Des Moines. Over time, driveways, sidewalks, patios, and steps can crack, sink, or become uneven, creating safety hazards and drainage issues around your home.
If you’ve noticed sloped walkways, sinking concrete slabs, or gaps forming near your foundation, those are signs of soil instability below the surface. Left unaddressed, the same soil movement that affects your concrete can also damage your foundation.
Anchored Walls offers advanced concrete leveling services that raise and stabilize sunken slabs without the cost or disruption of full replacement. Our process restores a smooth, even surface while protecting against future settling.
It’s a fast, effective way to improve safety, boost curb appeal, and preserve the long-term condition of your property.
Whether you're finishing a basement or updating an older home, adding an egress window is one of the most important upgrades you can make. Egress windows provide a safe emergency exit, improve natural lighting, and help your home meet modern building codes.
In Des Moines, many basements were built before egress requirements were common, leaving homeowners with dark, enclosed spaces that don’t meet today’s standards. Anchored Walls designs and installs egress window systems that are secure, code-compliant, and tailored to your home’s layout.
Our team handles every step, from excavation to final trim, ensuring a clean, professional installation that adds value, safety, and comfort to your lower level. If you're planning a basement remodel or just want to make your home safer, we’ll help you do it the right way.
For more than 40 years, Anchored Walls has helped Des Moines families protect what matters most. From foundation repair to concrete leveling, we bring deep experience with Iowa soil conditions and a track record of results that lasts.

It’s not just about fixing problems, it’s about earning trust, one home at a time.
If you’ve noticed bowed walls, musty odors, damp floors, or cracking concrete around your Des Moines home, don’t wait. These signs often point to deeper structural or moisture issues that only get worse over time.
