Carol is a long-time homeowner in Spalding, NE, and concern about the foundation walls falling in. She wanted to keep her family home in good shape and decided to call Thrasher Foundation Repair. We sent System Design Specialist Brandon Headrick out to Carol’s home. During the inspection, he was able to see that the walls needed support. The crew installed PowerBraces and was able to provide the walls with the necessary support. Carol was impressed with how smooth and easy the installation went.
From time to time, Ivan would get water in his basement. Then he noticed his floors were starting to sag. Worried about mold and the integrity of his home, he wanted to fix this problem, especially since he has plans to give this home to his daughter. He knew a band-aid fix wouldn't work and wanted a permanent solution. So he called Thrasher. One of our System Design Specialists, Austin Ahlf, went out to Ivan's home to figure out the root of the problem.
Upon inspection, we found that water was entering through the coal joints in the wall. On top of that, his crawl space was sagging as well. We used WaterGuard with a lateral to the sump pump to fix his water issue. We then used CleanSpace, a 100% waterproof plastic vapor barrier, to divert any water intrusion and channel it away from the home. And then, for his crawl space, we installed SmartJacks to lift and level his support beams back into place.
This homeowner was getting moisture in her basement, so she wanted us to come out and look at her foundation. Her home doesn't have gutters, she didn't think she needed them because of the large overhang she has on her home. Turn out she did need them, moisture was still making its way down the side of the home, causing two sides to settle. To stabilize the home's foundation, we installed nine interior piers.
Clogging due to leaves, pine needles, and other debris causes major headaches to many homeowners. RainDrop gutter guard keeps unwanted items out, while still allowing rainwater to flow freely through. Get the right protection for your gutters!
Diane S. was always unhappy with the condition of her concrete on her driveway. Delivery trucks had left a toll on the concrete and after seeing her neighbors new concrete, she wanted to get her fixed. In need of fa concrete repair contractor, she decided to call Thrasher Foundation Repair.
System Design Specialist AJ LaVoie went out to Diane’s home. The concrete and sidewalk slabs sunk due to the weight of trucks that pulled up on to the area. Moisture had also gotten under the concrete due to exposed cracks and control joints. We were able to level out the sunken slabs with PolyLevel and seal up the cracks and control joints with NexusPro Joint Sealant. To prevent further damage to concrete and the home’s foundation we also installed CompressionGuard in the bottom of her driveway.
