Shane F. could see the walls in his basement bowing in. Shane’s grandfather built this house and has been in the family for many years. Shane wanted to restore the home to keep the house in his family. He wanted to fix his failing foundation and called Thrasher Foundation Repair.
We installed wall anchors, PowerBraces, and ShotLock to give Shane and his family a brand new basement wall. Shane went from having a failing wall to having a beautiful brand new wall.
Patricia W. has been worried about the floors in her home for quite some time. She noticed there was serve sagging and anxious that they would collapse. She decided to give us a call.
We sent System Design Specialist Anthony Salcedo out to the home. He was able to identify that there was serve rotting out of the floor joists due to moisture that had occurred. A carpenter came out and removed the subfloor and repaired the joists prior to install. We were able to support the floor as designed and also encapsulated the crawlspace with CleanSpace.
This homeowner was gifted this home from his father. He started to notice settlement on the back wall where the crawlspace was added and his floors were also sagging. He called Thrasher to come out and inspect. We found, upon inspection, that the add-on crawlspace was not supported sufficiently when it was built. The span from wall to wall was too wide and needed supports in the middle to help the slab not settle.
To fix the issue, we used our I-beams to run the length of the crawlspace in smart jacks to support the beam so that the floor would not settle or sag.
The homeowner was very happy he doesn't have to concerned about that area and happy he can continue to live in the home that his father built.
Longtime homeowners Dan & Lois T have had problems with their concrete and noticed it was getting worse. Looking for a long-term solution that required minimum work down the road, they decided to give us a call.
We sent System Design Specialist Jesse White out to their home. He was able to find a solution. The team installed push piers on the two exposed foundation walls and installed power braces on the basement walls. To level the concrete, we used PolyLevel and lifted the concrete back up to the original spot. Dan and Lois were very pleased with the project and how helpful the crew was in explaining everything that went on and cleaning up once the work was done.
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.
