Thrasher Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Jimmie F. has a lot of mature trees around his home that would constantly clog his gutters. Each time there was a clog, he would have to clean out the gutters so then the water could drain. Tired of having to do this, he decided it was time to give Thrasher a call and learn more about our seamless gutter installation.

System Design Specialist Dylan Hagen went out to Jimmie’s home to take a look at the current gutter system. Upon inspection, Dylan was able to see that the only way to keep the gutters clog free, was by installing GutterShutter, our seamless and clog-free gutters. While installing the gutters, the crew also buried the downspouts to keep water away from the foundation. Jimmie was very happy with the final look and thrilled that he no longer had to worry about clogs and gutter maintenance!

John E. was looking to finish his basement and create more living space, but he was having trouble with water coming into his basement. Water would be coming in and the temperature in the basement would never get above the 50s. The pervious homeowner had work done by Thrasher, so John decided to give us a call and learn more about solutions for foundation repair.

Service Technician Kerry Lehman went out to John’s home to see what we could do. Upon inspection Kerry found the foundation wall had deflected so far that the exterior wall was no longer on the sill plate. There was a gap letting outside air pour into the basement. The wall cracks were also allowing water to come in and keep the basement wet.

The crew started with excavating the outside and straightening the wall with the GeoLock anchors. Three of the walls were also waterproofed with WaterGaurd and full-height CleanSpace was also put on the walls to keep the water out.

Homeowners Rich and Greta C. were having problems with their driveway. Concrete slabs were sinking, and cracks were forming and over time it kept on getting worse. Worried about the appearance and the effect this would have on their home, they decided it was time to see what concrete repair solutions were available. Familiar with Thrasher and recommendations from others, they gave us a call.

System Design Specialist Michael Romanek went out to their home in Papillion, NE to start with an inspection. He was able to see that there was settlement and cracking due to a drain spout that was dumping water onto driveway, causing the soil to wash away. We were able to fix this by leveling the driveway with PolyLevel, bringing the settled areas back up to the original level. Then we closed and sealed the joints and cracks with NexusPro Joint Sealant. To protect the driveway, we also applied SealantPro to the whole driveway. All of the downspouts were buried, so they would drain away from the driveway.

 Rich and Greta were extremely pleased with the outcome and glad they didn’t have to replace any of the concrete!

Homeowner Ken H. was struggling with this side patio on his home. There was major settlement occurring in 2 spots and it was affecting the space. He has been redoing his home and was ready to fix the concrete. Looking for a concrete repair solution, he decided to call Thrasher.

We sent System Design Specialist Sam Frei out to Ken’s home. Upon inspection Sam was able to see that the patio was settling in two different ways, away from the home and down the middle, which caused a crack to appear. We were able to repair the concrete by lifting the concrete with PolyLevel. Then we repaired the cracks and sealed the joint with NexusPro Joint Sealant. Ken was happy with the final look of the concrete and excited to be able to use the space again!

Melodie H. recently purchased this home in Overland Park, KS and wanted to repair the concrete before it was to get any worse with time. With the summer season approaching quickly, she wanted all the concrete surrounding the pool repaired and fully functional. She gave Thrasher a call and we came out to inspect the problematic areas.

System Design Specialist Lukas Popp arrived at the Overland Park home and presented to Melodie our concrete repair solutions. She opted to have us install our 3-part protection system that consists of leveling, sealing, and protection. PolyLevel is injected first beneath the concrete to lift and level it, permanently. NexusPro sealer was then applied to seal all cracks and control joints to prevent any water from seeping through in the future. Lastly, SealantPro was sprayed to cover the surface and protect it from any stains and deterioration.

Melodie was thrilled with the appearance and effectiveness of our 3-part Concrete Protection System. She was happy to have Thrasher be able to provide multiple concrete solutions to take care of all her concerns in one project. We were able to restore her peace of mind give her the confidence she needs to enjoy her new home.
