Thrasher Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Homeowners Daniel and Sharon Z. recently moved into their lake home. They noticed that the basement had high levels of humidity and were concerned with how this would affect their health and the home. The home’s crawl space was previously encapsulated by Thrasher, and they have worked with us in the past, so they felt confident that we could help them take control of the humidity.

Service Technician Daniel Hilkemann went out to their home. The home lacked a dehumidifier, and we installed a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier to reduce the relative humidity in the crawl space and purify the air.  Daniel and Sharon were glad to have a peace of mind in knowing the crawl space would remain mold free and the new dehumidifier would keep the air clean.

Brad T. is a homeowner in Nemaha, IA and was experiencing some issues with his foundation walls. The failing foundation was allowing water to seep in through the cracks and harming the living quality of the environment. The excess moisture was causing mold growth and a damp atmosphere in the basement. In search for a permanent solution, Brad gave Thrasher a call because of our reputation and excellent customer service.

System Design Specialist Jordan Comstock arrived at the home in Nemaha, IA to undergo a thorough inspection on the foundation walls. Jordan determined the walls were experiencing stage-two wall failure that was causing them to bow inward and allow water to infiltrate the space. In addition, water was also entering through the cold joints of a foundation add-on in the late 70’s. To combat these issues, Brad chose to have Thrasher install a combination of our waterproofing and foundation products. We began by applying our CleanSpace waterproof barrier to the full height of the foundation walls and a TripleSafe sump pump system to drain the water effectively. Then, our PowerBrace wall support system was installed to stabilize the bowing foundation.

Brad was thrilled to have his homes foundation issues repaired and a thing of the past. Thrasher was able to not only restore his foundation walls, but also his peace of mind knowing his basement is a safe place once again.

Homeowner Jian J. in Overland Park, KS has been struggling with his driveway concrete. He started to notice the problems about 4 years ago and had the area mudjacked, but the solution didn’t last. Wanting to maintain his home’s value, he called Thrasher to learn about concrete lifting solutions.

We sent System Design Specialist, Tom Studer out to Jian’s home. Upon inspection of the driveway, Tom identified that the settling was occurring due to poor fill soil and the weight of the previous mudjacking. The crew was able to raise the driveway slab with PolyLevel. Then used NexusPro to seal the joints and cracks to prevent further water penetration. Then we also buried a few of the downspouts to direct the water away from the driveway. Jian was completely impressed with the crew’s professionalism and the final look of the driveway

Homeowner Susan M. in Clive, IA was growing tired of the crawl space always being dirty and having bugs and mice in the space. The space has never been sealed off from the outside, so she was ready to make the space feel cleaner and brighter. Having used Thrasher Foundation Repair in the past, she didn’t hesitate to give us a call again.

Service Technician Brandon Roast went out to Susan’s home. He performed a thorough inspection of the crawl space. It was dark and the plastic lining had many holes in it. The crew encapsulated the space with CleanSpace and sealed up all the seams and tops to make sure the space was useable, and nothing could get in the crawl space again. Susan was very impressed with the quality of work and how well the crew worked together.

Homeowner Ralph H. in Boone, IA noticed that there were cracks appearing in his foundation. Fearing that there was a lot of pressure on his foundation walls from a previous leak, he wanted to have a peace of mind in knowing his walls were stable. Looking for a company with a good reputation for fixing foundation, he decided to give Thrasher Foundation Repair a call.

Service Technician Michael Holtzbauer went out to Ralph’s home. After inspecting the walls, he was able to identify that the basement wall was in stage one wall failure with deflection and diagonal cracking on the poured foundation. The crew installed PowerBraces around the full perimeter of the basement to support the whole wall. Ralph was very pleased with the outcome of the project and glad to know that is home is properly supported.
