Thrasher Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Marvin and Mary C. were tired of always having water intrusion in their basement. They had spent a significant amount of time getting this fixed, but no solution had worked. They wanted a permanent solution that would last, as previous customers Marvin and Mary, decided to call Thrasher.

We sent System Design Specialist Brandon Brown out to their home. He has able to see that there was extreme cracking and wall failure with over 3 inches of deflection in the middle of one of the walls. Hydrostatic pressure and expensive soil had caused a freeze line crack. The crew installed Geo-Lock anchors to stabilize the walls. Marvin and Mary were thrilled to know their walls would be stable now and appreciated the work the crew put into installed the Geo-Lock Anchors.

Longtime homeowner Marjorie A. was looking to pass her home on to her grandson. She wanted to make sure that the home’s foundation was in good condition and wouldn’t cause any problems for her grandson, she decided to give Thrasher a call.

We sent System Design Specialist Jon Young out to Marjorie’s home. He found that her foundation walls were bowing in. The crew installed Geo-Lock wall anchors to stabilize the walls. The anchors will permanently stabilize her basement walls, offering the best opportunity to straighten out the walls. Marjorie was extremely happy with the end result and was given a peace of mind.

During an annual service appointment Service Technician Ryan Allen was able to identify foundation problems in Daryl B.’s home. During the inspection Ryan was able to show Daryl increasing wall failure and deflection. This led to a conversation about how to stop the wall failure from getting worse and permanent solutions to save the walls.

Due to moving soils and water issues, there was pressure on the walls which was leading to wall failure. The crew installed PowerBraces, which are galvanized I-beams that are securely fastened to concrete basement floors and attached to the joists, fully stabilizing the foundation walls from shifting ever again. Daryl B. was extremely pleased with this solution to prevent future issues.

By scheduling annual maintenance appointments, we were able to detect a problem and come up with a solution that led to earlier detection and cost savings.

New homeowner Kelsie K. and her family recently moved into a new home. As they started doing renovations, they found a plumbing leak and as they started to remove the drywall, they found mold and wall cracks. Worried about the wall cracks and how this could impact their renovations, Kelsie decided to call Thrasher.

System Design Specialist Jeremey Scott went out to Kelsie’s home. He was able to see that two walls were bowing 2.5” and one of the walls were starting to shear. Using a mixture of wall solutions, we able to stabilize the walls using PowerBraces and lever brackets. C-Channel anchors were installed to protect the walls from further sheering. Kelsie and her family where extremely happy to have a peace of mind knowing their walls were fully stabilized.

Kristina W. purchased her family home and is going to restore it. Before starting with the renovations, one of the foundation walls had collapsed. Needing a long-term solution that would last she decided to call Thrasher.

System Design Specialist Warren Peters went out to the home.  He was able to identify that one of the walls had completely collapsed and the other walls were showing signs of failure as well. We used a combination of PowerBraces with ShotLock to stabilize the walls. Kristina was super excited to know the foundation walls were completely stabilized and excited to continue on with the project.
