Thrasher Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This homeowner was upset because his driveway slap had sunken 2-3 inches even after it had been mudjacked in the past. The longer this problem was, the harder it was to drive in and out of his driveway. Frustrated by this problem, he decided to give us a call and see what solutions we could offer.

We sent System Design Specialist Nick Wessling to inspect the concrete and find the root cause of the sinking problem. Nick found that the soil underneath the concrete was eroding because a poorly designed downspout was directing rainwater under the concrete. After discussing this problem with the homeowner, the homeowner was impressed that Nick found the root cause of the issue, and he wanted to move forward using Thrasher Foundation Repair to solve his problem. Our team installed buried downspouts leading away from the concrete to prevent any further damage, then they used PolyLevel foam to lift the driveway slab back to its original position.

The homeowner was happy that the root cause of the problem had been solved. Check out his leveled driveway!

This homeowner had water in the basement and she was confused. Previously, she had foundation support systems installed and water had never been a problem in her basement. She called out our Service Technicians for a look as to what was happening in our basement.

We sent Service Technician Ryan Allen to inspect the source of the water in her basement. Ryan was at first perplexed as to why this problem began, as he has done maintenance for this homeowner for the past couple of years. He found that there was water seeping in through the cold joints that were shown in the basement walls. Ryan knew just how to solve this by utilizing WaterGuard Interior Drainage System and CleanSpace Wall Vapor Barrier. These solutions were perfect for the homeowner as she would no longer have to worry about a surprise water problem in her basement. 

The homeowner was very happy with the crew's communication, cleanliness and professionalism. Check our her waterproof basement solution!

St. Patrick's Church council members in Nevada, Iowa were concerned because the parishioners could potentially trip and fall on the concrete ledge leading to the entrance of the social hall. One of the council members recommended they call us at Thrasher Foundation Repair, so we came out to assess the problem.

We sent System Design Specialist Nick Wessling to assess what was causing this tripping hazard at the entrance. He determined that a poorly designed downspout was releasing water right next to the concrete entrance, so the water was washing out the soil underneath the concrete entrance. After discussion with the council members, Nick and his team got to work on fixing this tripping hazard. They replaced the nearby downspout with a buried downspout leading away from the concrete. Also, they utilized our 2-part Concrete Protection System which includes PolyLevel Concrete Leveling and NexusPro Cracked Concrete Repair to lift and seal the concrete entrance.

The church members were so excited when this project was done. Check out this church entrance repair!

This homeowner was frustrated as her concrete had been undermined by chipmunks and rainwater that washed out the soil underneath the concrete. She had enough of these struggles, so she called us.

We sent System Design Specialist Nick Wessling to inspect the unique concrete problem and answer all questions that this homeowner had. Nick determined that the voids underneath the concrete created by the eroding soil and chipmunk areas led to the concrete breaking and settling over an inch. The homeowner was impressed with this assessment and wanted to complete this project with us. Nick and his team used PolyLevel Concrete Leveling and NexusPro Cracked Concrete Repair to raise the settled concrete and seal it off from water or chipmunks getting into the joints of the concrete.

The homeowner was very excited with the final result as she wanted to do this project for a while. Check our her concrete restoration!

This homeowner noticed a sagging floor in their home after living there for a few years. As the years passed, they noticed the problem had become noticeably worse and it raised some real concerns. Ultimately, the homeowner decided to fix the problem before it got worse and became too far gone, so they called us.

We sent System Design Specialist Nick Tiberghien to inspect the crawl space and determine the cause and solutions for this homeowner's sagging floor. Nick noticed that there was a large gap between the baseboard and the floor, and that you would feel the cooler air coming from the crawlspace. He determined that there was a lack of support underneath the floor due to the high moisture content that weakened the floor supports. Reassuring the homeowners that this was a fixable issue, Nick and his team got right to work on installing SmartJacks to stabilize the floors and lift them to their original position. After this, they installed a SmartSump to control the soil moisture and a CleanSpace vapor barrier to help reduce the humidity caused by water in the air. 

The homeowner was happy that the floors were able to be raised and that the water issue was addressed. Check out this homeowner's crawl space restoration!
