Sinking Slabs Stabilized!
This homeowner has only lived in her home for a year ad a half, but her concrete is already filing in many areas. She wants to get this fixed to protect her investment and increase the home's curb appeal. The problem was that the soil around her home started to shift, which caused slabs near the garage to sink into the earth. Slabs can sink for many reasons: a lack of compaction, soil drying out, or excess moisture. Our team used PolyLevel to lift and level the areas that had sunk. We then used NexusPro on all the joints and cracks in the rest of the driveway and patio.
Safe Downspout in Le Mars, IA
This homeowner's downspout extension was a tripping hazard for herself and others, so she wanted it to be buried. Not only was it a tripping hazard, but it was also interfering with her yard work. To keep this homeowner safe, we buried the downspouts with a Lawnscape discharge pot.
Helical Piers for Home's 100th Birthday
This home is celebrating its 100-year anniversary later this month, and to honor that, the homeowner wanted to get some of her worries about the home checked out. She and her daughter had noticed some settlement issues and were concerned it was damaging the inside drywall. The brick home sits on a shallow footing and has settled over time due to the cycle of wet and dry seasons that expand and contract the soil. To make sure this home is standing for many years to come, we installed 12 helical piers on the front porch and side bump out.
Remodel Preparation in Orange City, IA
This homeowner is planning to remodel his basement and is tired of dealing with water issues. Before he starts the renovations he wants to ensure the space is waterproof. We determined that hydrostatic pressure was causing water to come through the cold joints and some wall bowing is also resulting from this. We waterproofed this basement by installing WaterGuard, TripleSafe sump pump, and CleanSpace. Now this homeowner can get started on that remodel!
Sinking Steps Saved Before They Got Worse in Licking, MO
The homeowner called Thrasher to fix their sinking steps before the problem got worse and more expensive to fix the longer it went on. Instead of using outdated Mudjacking, Thrasher used a better method called PolyLevel. Mudjacking can make the problem worse over time and is messy, with slurry coming out of holes and cracks. It also takes a long time to dry. On the other hand, PolyLevel is a modern solution. It uses lightweight polymers to lift and stabilize the concrete. It's clean and fast, and it doesn't put extra weight or pressure on weak soils. This method is great for driveways, sidewalks, patios, and pool decks.
