Interior Basement Waterproofing in Olathe, KS
This homeowner was experiencing problems with water in her basement, and the noticed a musty smell start to develop. After looking around for who could help her, she gave us a call for a free estimate.
We sent System Design Specialist Jimmy Hungerford to inspect the basement and determine where the water was getting in, as well as where the smell was coming from. Jimmy found that water was coming in the because of hydrostatic pressure against the foundation wall. The pressure forced water into cracks and weak spots in the foundation. The water then traveled through the drywall and onto the floor which also caused mold to grow behind the homeowner's drywall. Jimmy discussed the problem with the homeowner then demonstrated what solutions would fix this, and the homeowner couldn't wait to see what her finished product would look like. Our team used a TripleSafe Sump Pump System as well as WaterGuard Interior Drainage System and CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to give water a proper drainage path and to seal off the moisture in the air. These systems will also help to prevent water from pooling in the basement in the future, as well as prevent mold from growing in the drywall.
The homeowner was quite pleased with her new waterproofing systems. Check out her new interior basement systems!
Annual Maintenance on Sump Pumps in Omaha, NE
These homeowner was reached out to by our team to schedule their annual maintenance appointment. They didn't realize that it had already been a year since our waterproofing systems had been installed, so they decided to schedule their appointment.
We sent Service Technician Brandon Brown to show the homeowners how they can do maintenance themselves at home, as well as to check on the systems one year later. Brandon showed them that their older sump pump system's main pump had a high amount of usage and water that was pooling around the foundation. Brandon expressed his concern about their old system, and talked to the homeowners about cleaning up the pumps so that they could function at a higher level. The homeowners didn't know that their sump pump system needed to be cleaned, so they were very appreciative that Brandon showed them how to clean it properly. Brandon then flushed out the water guard system that was installed the previous year just to ensure that everything was still working at its top performance.
The homeowners were wowed by the thorough maintenance appointment and how Brandon simply wanted to help prolong their investment in their home. Check out these homeowner's newly cleaned sump pump system!
Uneven Floors Leveled in Forest City, IA
These homeowners were concerned about their uneven floors. They were already planning to have their radon mitigated, so they decided to have some work done in their crawlspace as well.
They gave us a call for a free estimate, so we sent System Design Specialist James Denning to look at the crawlspace and determine if they were causing the floors to sag. James found that there was a damp, musty smell coming from the crawlspace due to excess moisture in the air, which was also causing the floor supports to weaken. After discussing the options with James and seeing the pre-mailer book they received about crawlspace repairs, they decided to have us take care of their crawlspace repairs. Our team determined that they needed to bury the downspouts so that water could not get into the crawlspace and cause problems with moisture. The team then installed Silver Gloe Insulation to help save on energy cost for the homeowners. Finally, our team addressed the support problems by using SmartJacks and adding supplemental beams to even out the floor as well as installing a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to finish protecting the support beams from moisture.
The homeowners were so glad that they had us help with their crawlspace. They were grateful that we were able to work with and around their Radon company as well. Check out their newly secured crawlspace!
Cracked Driveway Repaired in Urbandale, IA
This homeowner had water leaking into her storage area in her basement from the corner of his driveway. She was pretty frustrated with this situation, so she decided to give us a call for a free estimate.
We sent System Design Specialist Jordan Mullen to inspect the driveway and determine what caused it to direct water into the storage area. Jordan found that there was a large void in the driveway on a newly poured area and so the stoop cap was leaking. While this problem was not ideal, the homeowner chose for us to fix her driveway because of the communication we sent her regarding her problem as well as the warranties we have on our products. Our team came in to lift, level, and seal the driveway using PolyLevel Concrete Leveling and NexusPro Cracked Concrete Repair. Not only did this solution fix the uneven and cracked driveway, but it also stopped the water flow to the basement.
The homeowner was super pleased with the work that was done. Check out how our crew was able to lift, level, and seal this driveway!
Foundation and Fireplace Separation in Centennial, CO
These homeowners recently purchased their home for their kids and grandkids to live in, however they had some concerns with the foundation and needed to get it fixed. After looking into companies that do foundation repair, they reached out to us for a free estimate.
We sent System Design Specialist Rob Griffin to inspect the home's foundation to determine what was causing the foundation concern. Rob found that the fireplace was pulling away from the house, creating a gap between the outside wall and the chimney. He also saw that the garage was sinking because of weak fill soil that could not hold the weight of these structures. After thoroughly understanding the problem, Rob talked to the homeowners about options to solve this, and they loved how he described the options, so they decided to move forward with us. Our team installed Push Piers to stabilize the home and they were able to fix the problem by leveling the chimney and home.
The homeowners were very happy with the quality of work the crew did on their home. Check out the leveled chimney and home!
