Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This customer's home had cracked and bowing walls in their basement. This was caused by freezing water around the foundation pressing against the walls. 

We were able to prevent any further falling of the wall with our wall anchors and straightened the walls back with our powerbraces. 

These home owners were thinking of tearing apart their basement because he wanted to remodel, make some nice additions, and make it a livable space. When he started to move around some boxes, he noticed how bad the wall was failing. They knew they needed somebody that can do quality work and ensure they can finish their basement safely and confidently. They called Thrasher and System Design Specialist, Corey Little, came out to meet with them. Corey inspected the foundation, and determined the walls were starting to fail due to expansive clay soil and hydrostatic pressure from water build up. Corey went to the homeowners and proposed we use our EverBrace system. EverBrace is used in cases of extreme movement. We use beams and steel paneling that has foam pumped in between the failing wall and the wall we created to transfer the weight off of the failing wall. Corey also proposed we use WaterGuard behind our EverBrace wall with a sump pump that way if the failing walls start to leak, it won't be a problem later. It would be best practice so we would not have to rip into the wall system if water intrusion happens. The homeowners were ecstatic they would not have to move out of the home for an extreme wall repair. They were happy they will have peace of mind with a company that stands behind a 25 year warranty.

These homeowners starting seeing water stains and cracking forming in their basement. They were worried about mold, allergens and water coming through the wall, so they called Thrasher Foundation Repair! They wanted the job to be done right the first time, and knew they could trust us to take care of them. Brandon Rost, System Design Specialist, came out to meet them. After the inspection, Brandon proposed installing CleanSpace, PowerBraces, and a Sedona Dehumidifier. CleanSpace would be used as a barrier between the wall and the basement. CleanSpace helps prevent water from entering the basement, as well as preventing mold from forming and allergens from getting in. CleanSpace is waterproof, so if water gets in, it flows down the tarp like material and into the waterproofing system. This way, water does not sit in one place, which can cause mold to grow. To help the cracking and slight deflection of the wall, he proposed PowerBraces. These are metal braces that are installed to the wall that stop the walls from caving in anymore, as well as can help straighten the wall over time. The dehumidifier would also help prevent mold from growing by keeping the moisture levels down. The homeowners were excited with this idea, and we sent out the installation team. The homeowners were happy they were able to understand why the problems they were facing were happening, and what the best solution was. Check out the before and after photos of these walls! 

This homeowner called us for basement waterproofing and foundation repair. We installed PowerBrace, to stabilize the foundation's walls, and our full waterproofing service, including WaterGuard, SaniDry Dehumidifier, IceGuard, TripleSafe sump pump, and CleanSpace vapor barrier. 

The water is now redirected and out of his home. And his foundation is secure and safe!

Every time this homeowner hears a new creak in his house he fears the structure is about to fall down. He even set up columns next to the wall to help hold up that end of the house in case something did happen. To relieve his fears he called us to take a look and repair his foundation. The fall was severely bowed, so we installed EverBrace, a steel panel system that strengthens the existing structure.
