Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This homeowner noticed extreme cracks forming behind their drywall. He knew that Thrasher had installed waterproofing systems before he bought the house eight years ago, so he called us to come out and perform an inspection. 

Chuck Kain visited the home to assess the problem. He found that the south wall had huge cracks and deterioration of mortar joints. The cracks were very apparent on the exterior but much, much worse inside. 

To fix this issue, we extended the waterproofing by adding new sump pumps. To address the wall failure, we installed wall support and our EverBrace system on the south wall. 

The homeowner loved the finished look and was super excited to start finishing his basement and not have to worry about these issues again.

Jeremy and Rita just purchased their forever home. But in order for them to turn it into their own oasis, they want to do a full remodel. Before they start the construction, there's one thing they need to do first. Repair their foundation.

They called Thrasher to perform an inspection. Clint Gerber went out to their home to look at the foundation. 

Upon inspection, he found that since the house sits on a hill, it has settled due to water runoff. On top of that, a wall that supported the deck and ran along the home was failing. 

To resolve these issues, we utilized push piers to lift and stabilize their foundation. We also used carbon armor to support the wall that was failing. Jeremy and Rita were ecstatic about the outcome and are excited to start the renovations on their forever home.

This was was near complete failure. The wall in question is a combination of poured concrete and concrete block material. The poured section of the wall was formed horizontally on the inside, and was an "Earth Pour" on the outside, meaning the builder did not use a concrete form outside the home, but rather used the exposed dug up soil as the mold to form the concrete.

We were able to install Everbrace to permanently stabilize the wall and prevent it from moving inward and collapsing. 

Jeremy met the Thrasher team at a home show a few months ago. He was interested in purchasing a home but knew it had structural issues. He wanted a professional team to look at the house to figure out what was needed to achieve stabilization for the house to pass inspection. 

We sent Anthony Salcedo to the home to look at the foundation. He found that an area of the foundation was settling about an inch into the soil. Anthony knew we needed to develop a solution quickly because Jeremy had a small window before closing on the house. 

Our install team was able to lift the house about an inch (to its original position) and close most cracks in the walls by installing helical piers. Helical piers are made of heavy-duty galvanized steel that's resistant to bending. They are advanced or screwed into the soil and support the structure's weight.

Jeremy was very grateful throughout the entire process and impressed with our level of professionalism and execution. Above all else, he was happy we were able to work with him on his schedule and close on his new house in time!

The homeowner's walls were deflecting inward and were in stage 2 wall failure. We were able to fix the problem of falling foundation walls by using Power Brace and Carbon Armor. We used this combination to keep as much space as possible to allow the basement to be finished.

They had us back out to support another wall after we were finished because of the work we did on the first wall.
