Thrasher Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This homeowner called us to address their basement wall because It seemed to be bending inward. When we inspected the wall we saw that it was in stage 2 wall failure. To fix this, we installed wall anchors because the customer couldn't use PowerBraces due to the stairs being very close to the wall. 

This homeowner just purchased his home and has big plans to fix it up. Before moving forward with his projects he wanted to address his chimney that is leaning away from the house. It's fairly common for fireplaces to settle and can be caused by several things. The back-fill soil could be sinking and no longer supporting the structure or the gutters and downspouts may not be moving water far enough from the foundation. To support this chimney, we installed two push piers. The push piers will permanently support the fireplace by taking soil out of the equation. 

Our customer is a firm believer in leaving a home in a better place than what she found it in. She takes a lot of pride in her home! We noticed that in the basement the main beam was sagging aggressively towards the middle of the home. The home is pre-1920 and needed additional support throughout the whole main beam. In order to fix the problem, we presented the SmartJack XT to our customer. We explained to her that this is a long-term solution that will create instant results for her home.

Water was getting under the stoop due to a gap in the concrete and there is a tripping hazard on the sidewalk leading to the stoop. This customer knew If water continued to seep under the stoop, it could lead to more settling problems with the stoop and nearby concrete. To fix these issues for our customer, we usedPolylevel and NexusPro. These helped us seal the gaps and lift the concrete to its original position, 

This homeowner likes to keep her house nice and remain proactive about potential problems. A couple of her concrete slabs near the garage were starting to settle and there were strong signs of street creep. There were vertical cracks forming in their garage and that pressure was about to reach the foundation wall which would cause serious damage. After we lifted and leveled the slabs, we installed a CompressionGuard, as seen in the "After" photo, to prevent any additional damage caused by street creep.
