Thrasher Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This customer was experiencing sagging floors on the first level in her home. Upon inspection, we realized the structural support was deteriorating. We used SmartJacks, our crawl space high-capacity steel pier to stabilize and support the home beneath the crawl space.

This customer noticed some cosmetic damage in her kitchen. The drywall tape was pulling away from the center wall in the kitchen and you could see the damage on the ceiling.

When we inspected the home, we found the problem was there was inadequate support holding up the home in the crawl space. We installed double the supports in the crawl space to fix the issue. We used our SmartJack Support system, that you can see in the photos above.

This home was experiencing hydrostatic pressure, which is when saturated soil exerts a lot of pressure on foundation walls they start to bow inward. The homeowner had only bought the home a year prior and started to notice the walls coming inward and was concerned the home was going to collapse. To fix this, we installed two wall stabilizers: PowerBraces and Geolock Wall Anchors. 

PowerBraces are a wall repair system that's designed to stabilize basement walls. They are steel beams that go from floor to ceiling and are secured tightly against your wall with brackets anchored to the floor. Once tightened, they are able to reverse wall failure and straighten the wall overtime. GeoLock wall anchors are also designed to permanently stabilize your foundation wall. They are a heavy duty anchor system that are embedded into stable soil away from your foundation wall and then connect to steel anchors with long, galvanized rods. 

This homeowner had a problem with their walls bowing and showing signs of foundation failure, like cracks and crumbling. Thrasher Foundation Repair's solution for this is called the EverBrace, a wall restoration system that is made of steel panels and I-beams used to reinforce the existing structure. Our installation team also injects a special foam to fill the gaps between the wall and the panels to make it stronger and look nicer. This new support system took the load off the failing wall, giving the homeowner a strong foundation without the high cost and disruption of replacing the entire foundation. 

Years and years of washout and dryout took a toll on this heavy concrete block porch. The house was settling with noticeable cracks on the interior and exterior. The homeowner even recalled hearing a creaking noise at night. We installed helical piers on the porch and house to fix this and permanently stabilize the house.
