Before & After Photos

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. Check out the before and after attached! 

This homeowner wanted to protect their home to maintain its value. They know this is their retirement home, so they must keep it in good shape for their future. Since they've worked with Thrasher in the past on other homes, they knew they could trust us to get the job done right. 

Dillon Gubbels was the one to perform the inspection. He found that the house had wall failure along the back wall's foundation. This was causing separation cracks on their interior drywall. The soil outside their home was driving this problem and the pressure is applied to their foundation.

We fixed this by installing our wall support solution, Geo Anchors. The anchors were the ideal solution to be the least intrusive on their finished interior while stabilizing their foundation.

The customer was happy with the results and even said, "Thrasher is a company that stands behind their work."

This home's retaining wall was caving over. The homeowner is going to rent the bottom half of her home to her son, but the door to that part of the home can barely shut due to the retaining wall. She knows that if it's not fixed then it will fall over and be a bigger issue. To fix this issue, our crew excavated the area in front of the wall and then installed three wall anchors to it. 

This homeowner in Hornick wanted to sell her home, but wall failure in her basement was scaring away many buyers and attracting low offers from the rest. Once the homeowner was able to share that the walls were being repaired by Thrasher and that the warranty for the work would transfer with the home, interested increased and the home was sold shortly thereafter for a good price.

Mike's been remodeling his home and wants to do it right. It's important to him to preserve their forever home the best he can, and he knows protecting the foundation is key. Mike's worked with Thrasher in the past, so he knew exactly who to call. System Design Specialist, Jesse White, went out to Mike's home to see what was going on. 

Upon inspection, we found Mike's foundation walls were failing and had moved enough to see an impact on the upper level of the home. To fix this issue, we installed PowerBrace on the walls for extra support. Our PowerBrace system involves galvanized I-beams that run the full height of your foundation walls and is securely fastened to the concrete basement floor.

Mike was very happy with the results.
