Thrasher Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This homeowner was upset because her front stoop had settled and it had become a tripping hazard. She liked how smooth the process was when she wanted a free estimate, so she decided to more forward with us to fix her step problem.

We sent System Design Specialist Jordan Mullen to inspect the concrete step and determine what had caused the tripping hazard. Jordan found that the soil underneath the step was poorly compacted, so when the weight of the step is used, it keeps sinking lower because it cannot support it. Our team knew just how to help, so they came in and used PolyLevel foam to lift and level the step, then they used NexusPro sealant to seal the joints and any cracks in the sidewalk leading up to the step.

The homeowner really liked the work that was done and the communication that she received. Check out her lifted front stoop!

This homeowner noticed that her foundation wall was starting to get pushed inwards. Soon after, she noticed that grass and weeds were growing non stop in the joints of her concrete on her driveway. She wanted these problems to stop, and since she had used our services before, she gave us another call.

We sent Service Technician Austin Dermody to inspect the source of the foundation wall falling and come up with a solution to fix both of the homeowner's problems. Austin found that street creep was causing the concrete in the garage to grow into the foundation wall next to it. There were also voids underneath the concrete which were causing them to crack. Austin knew just what to do to fix this problem, so he started right away and he utilized PolyLevel foam and NexusPro sealant to lift, level, and seal the concrete, in addition to installing Compression Guard Expansion Joint to stop the street creep which caused the concrete to grow initially.

The homeowner was very happy with the results and she is relieved that her foundation is secure. Check out her new Compression Guard System!

This homeowner was irritated that her garage entrance had a bump, her driveway was very cracked, and her front entrance was cracking and sinking. She was very unpleased with her situation, so after research, she liked the outcomes we had achieved in the past, so she gave us a call. 

We sent System Design Specialist Austin Ahlf to inspect the concrete problems and determine the likely cause. Austin found that the garage approach and the front steps had settled due to a void underneath the concrete caused by poorly compacted, dry soil. Austin talked to the homeowner and determined that the best solution would be to lift, level, and seal the concrete with our 2-Part Concrete Protection System. Our team began restoring the concrete by injecting PolyLevel foam to lift and level the driveway and stairs, then they sealed the concrete's cracks and joints with NexusPro sealant.

The homeowner was really happy with the results and she loves the way her house looks. Check out her stair lift!

This homeowner wanted to fix her retaining wall because it was cracked and she was worried that it would not support anything if it got worse. She knew we had solutions for this problem, so she gave us a call. 

We sent System Design Specialist Daryn Britton to inspect the retaining wall and determine how we could best fix it. Daryn found that the retaining wall was deflecting 4 inches and there was a large crack that was making this possible. Knowing just how to help, our team installed Geolocks to stabilize the wall and straighten it over time. The crack in the wall is not gone, however the retaining wall is once again stable and will no continue to deflect.

The homeowner was very happy when her retaining wall was fixed and her son even wants to help tighten the anchors in the future. Check out the Geolock anchors!

These long-term rental property owners had just purchased a new property in Springfield, MO. They wanted to have everything checked out before they rented it out as a single family home. They heard of Thrasher helping with multiple home problems regarding crawlspaces and foundation repair, so they gave us a call. 

We sent System Design Specialist Nick Tiberghien to inspect the home's crawlspace and foundation to ensure that everything was safe for a family to rent this property. Nick found that the older property had significant sagging floors on the main level of the home as well as high relative humidity in the crawlspace. Upon further inspection, Nick found that the floors were sagging due to the distance between floor supports. The floor supports were too far apart and the high humidity in the crawl space had worn down the supports so that they could not properly hold the crawlspace.

After calling the rental property owners and discussing what was going on with the crawlspace and floors of their property, they wanted to get this fixed quickly. Our team got to work on adding 2 SmartJacks underneath the floor support beam as well as a 12-foot supplemental support beam to lift the floor back to be level. After this, they encapsulated the crawlspace using Drainage Matting and CleanSpace to ensure that the high humidity would not weaken the support beam any longer.

The rental property owners were very happy with the work that was done, and they can't wait to start renovating and renting out this property. Check out their crawlspace solutions!
