Thrasher Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This customer in Audubon, IA has been in the home since it was built and was planning on being there forever. Over the years he has noticed his steps starting to sink and crack as well as spots in his garage cracking. Wanting to keep his home in good condition and safe for him as he gets older, he decided to get these issues fixed. 

Upon inspection, our crew noticed many spots around his home had begun to settle causing the cracks and settling of his steps. This was caused by the soil underneath his concrete slabs being washed out. The team decided the best solution for this problem was to use PolyLevel foam to fill the voids and bring the concrete back into its original place. This foam also compacts the soil around the slabs, creating a stable environment that will ensure the garage floor and other slabs remain level for years to come. 

This homeowner in Basehor, KS wanted to finish the basement but needed to do something about the walls before they could do so. The walls were cracking, and water was getting through the cracks causing other issues in the basement. Unsure about what to do next, they decided to call Thrasher and see if we could help them fix this. 

After looking at the wall and foundation of the home our team decided the best solution for their problem was the use EverBrace wall restoration system. This system uses steel corrugated panels and beams that work together to stabilize the foundation walls by adding unbeatable support. EverBrace transfers the load from the failing wall to the new durable support panels. 

Our customers can now feel safe in their basement and use the space however they please. 

This customer was worried about water penetrating the joints and cracks in their driveway. Concerned that if it wasn't fixed it would only get worse, they had our team come out and take a look at it. We ended up stabilizing the concrete slabs with our PolyLevel expanding foam and then sealed up those cracks with NexusPro. 

Our customers in Lincoln, NE would have large amounts of water in their basement every time they got large amounts of rain. With plans on selling their home in the future and not wanting to have to deal with the hassle of cleaning up water after every rainfall, they decided to call Thrasher to get their issues resolved. 

The crew came out and found they had a wall failure on one part of the basement creating the majority of their water problems, eventually, over time the pressure from the water could cause this wall to collapse. Our team decided to fix the problem areas with full-perimeter WaterGaurd and PowerBraces. WaterGaurd is an interior drainage system that drains any water getting into the basement to a sump pump and moves the water away from your home. Next, we used PowerBraces to support the falling wall, this is an I-beam that runs the full height of the foundation that is securely fastened to the concrete basement floor. Both of these systems installed now give support to the wall causing the water leakage and will drain other water points getting into the basement.

This customer no longer has to worry about a wet basement or a potential wall failure and can look to sell their home without these lingering issues around their home. 

These homeowners originally called us out to look at cracking they had in the basement floor It was not problematic, but through the rest of the inspection System Design Specialist, Coley O'Halloran, discovered signs of street creep pushing on their foundation walls. The already had foundation issues caused by street creep, so when they found their new expansion joint had failed they knew it was something they needed to fix. Coley proposed we use our CompressionGuard to help this issue. It creates a true buffer from concrete expansion, giving long lasting results of foundation and concrete protection. To fix the issue of the cracking and sinking of the concrete from street creep, Coley proposed our Concrete Protection System. This bundles our Polylevel foam to fill voids underneath slabs and NexusPro which seals up all the joints and cracks. The homeowners loved this solution, and we sent out our installation team. There is no doubt these homeowners have the peace of mind they were looking for. Check out of the before and after of this project attached!
