Recently, we had the pleasure of assisting a homeowner whose office and bedroom floors were sinking into the ground, causing great inconvenience and discomfort. Recognizing the urgency of the situation, we swiftly took action and applied our innovative Polylevel technique. By injecting the Polylevel foam beneath the sinking areas, we successfully stabilized both the office and bedroom floors, ensuring a level surface and restoring peace of mind. Now, our valued customer can enjoy their space without the unsettling feeling of visiting the Leaning Tower of Pisa
This homeowner was facing a persistent issue with their home - a sinking floor that seemed to worsen each year. The floor had gotten to the point where the baseboard and floor were separated by 4 inches. This was causing issues within the home's foundation, allowing the walls to wobble a bit when tapped.
One of our System Design Specialists, Joe Miller, met with this homeowner and discussed how we could get this issue fixed. We would be using our PolyLevel foam to lift and level the floor back into place.
Our crew got out there, drilled dimed-sized holes into the concrete, and injected the foam into the floor to lift it up the whole 4 inches back to its original level. This homeowner now feels a sense of peace of mind knowing their home is stable and secure. Check out the before and after of this project!
This driveway's concrete was experiencing soil erosion and because of that, voids formed and the slab started to sink into them. To fix this issue, we lifted the concrete with our polyurethane foam, PolyLevel. PolyLevel is injected beneath the slab and fills every void, while simultaneously lifting and stabilizing the concrete.
The customer's current sump pump was letting water and mud come through from underneath the system. Thrasher was able to come in and install a full perimeter Waterguard system and full height cleanspace to keep water out of the basement from the cold joints. We also installed a new Triplesafe sump pump and buried all the downspouts for additional protection against water from entering the basement.
Jimmy had water coming in through the cold joints of his basement, causing mold and anxiety about his home. Cold joints are where the footing of your home, meets the foundation walls. Through time, the soil outside of the home begins to crack and shift, which allows water to build up pressure. Once there is too much pressure, there is only one way the water can go, into your basement. After one of our expert team members evaluated the space, they were able to come up with a solution that would keep Jimmy's basement dry, and guarantee he could live stress-free.
For Jimmy's home, a full perimeter WaterGuard was installed. This is a system that is laid next to the footing of the home, with perforated holes in the back. This allows for any water that comes through the cold joint, to be redirected to a Sump Pump, ultimately pushing the water up and out of the basement. Keeping the entire area dry.
