Thrasher Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

In Kearney, MO, a homeowner was tired of his driveway settling because it caused a huge bump that was rough on his car's tires. The driveway was also causing a tripping hazard when someone would try to use the front entrance walkway, so the homeowner decided to give us a call.

We sent System Design Specialist Jimmy Hungerford to inspect the tripping hazard and determine what damage it had caused as well as how to fix these issues. Jimmy say the tripping hazard and the problematic concrete slab and immediately took a look at the foundation to ensure that the home was stable. After that inspection, Jimmy explained to the homeowner that the concrete was pushing into the foundation wall of the basement, meaning that the longer the uneven concrete existed, the more likely it would caused the foundation wall to cave in. The homeowner was upset by this news, and knew that he wanted to fix his concrete immediately. We had our team start to fix this homeowner's concrete quickly by utilizing PolyLevel Foam and NexusPro Sealant to lift, level, and seal the concrete back to a height in which the foundation walls were not at risk.

The homeowner was happy with the work that was done and he was very thankful that we were able to help him catch his problem early enough that no further damage was done. Check out this homeowner's newly lifted driveway!

A homeowner in Lesterville, MO called us out because his cellar had problems with water intrusion for several years. After he decided it was too much of a problem and too timely to handle himself, he looked into our solutions and determined that with our decades of experience and our warranties that we would be a good fit to solve his unique cellar water problems.

We sent System Design Specialist Nick Tiberghien to inspect the cellar and determine how to best prevent water from flooding it. Upon inspection, Nick found that the water intrusion was due to cracks in the walls and floor as well as the one path downhill to enter and exit the cellar. Cellars are easily flooded as they are fairly exposed to the elements more so than a basement and their single entrances usually lead downhill, providing an easy path for water to flow through. Nick talked to the homeowner about this problem and told the homeowner of our interior waterproofing solutions that could help prevent water from pooling once it entered the cellar. The homeowner was grateful that we proposed solutions and wanted to help him, so after his approval, our team got to work on installing waterproofing solutions. Our installation team utilized a full perimeter WaterGuard Drainage System with a Lateral Line to address all water that was coming through the cold joints and cracks. After this, the team worked to install CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to prevent water from coming through the wall cracks, as well as to help minimize the amount of moisture coming through the walls and reduce the relative humidity of the cellar. Finally, our team installed an Ultra Sump Pump with a buried discharge pipe to redirect all water coming into the cellar back outside.

The homeowners were very happy with the solutions our team was able to install. They said that is was the best because he had previously tried other solutions that failed. The homeowner now has the peace of mind that he won't have to worry about cleaning his flooded cellar every time it rains now. Check out this unique cellar transformation!

A homeowner in the Kansas City area called us out because there was a musty smell in her home, causing not only her allergies to get worse, but her partner had started to suffer from the smell. She was quite worried about her partner and her friend had recommended us because we had fixed a similar issue for them.

We sent System Design Specialist Jared Matwich to discuss the problem with the homeowner and determine what solutions could be used to get rid of this musty smell. Jared explored the crawlspace underneath the home and found that the high humidity levels were causing the musty smell throughout the home. Jared called for a team to help him install a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier and a SaniDry Dehumidifier to encapsulate or isolate the crawlspace and regulate the air quality in not only the crawlspace, but the entire home. 

These solutions had a huge impact on the quality of life for the homeowners and their health has improved since we were able to isolate the crawlspace air and regulate the humidity spreading to the whole house. They were super impressed with the crew and the work that was done, and our crew was extremely happy that they were able to help improve the health of these homeowners.

This firm partner was concerned because of the tripping hazard for customers in the parking lot of the firm. After talking to his partners about the service he had seen us do around Salina, they agreed to give us a call for a concrete repair.

We sent System Design Specialist Brent See to inspect the parking lot of this accounting firm to see what had happened to the concrete. Brent found that the concrete slab had settled 4" in the center along with some cracking that happened in the center of the concrete. After discussing what happened with the firm partners, Brent sent our team out to fix this for the firm's customers. Our team used PolyLevel Foam to lift and level the concrete, then they used NexusPro sealant to seal the cracks and joints in the concrete.

The firm partner that called us was very happy, and he stated that his partners were also relieved that their customers could safely walk into their building. Check out the newly leveled concrete parking lot!

This homeowner wanted to get his house fixed up before his daughter came to visit him. He knew that his floors had been settling in the middle for some years, however he hasn't wanted to pay much attention to this problem until the present. After having many people tell him that they couldn't fix it, he gave us a call to see what we could do to help. 

We sent System Design Specialist Kevin French to inspect the support underneath the floor, and see what was happening. Kevin took a look in the crawlspace and saw that there was no climate control system in the crawlspace which had allowed the supports to sink down and not hold up the floor anymore. After showing this to the homeowner and reassuring that this problem can be fixed, the homeowner was relieved that someone had finally given him a solution. Our team went out to the home and installed SmartJacks and a supplemental support beam to lift the floors closer to being flat. These products helped to strengthen and stabilize the floor so that the home was more secure.

The homeowner was thrilled that we were able to help him. He thought the crew did an amazing job and he can't wait until his daughter comes to visit now. Check out the new crawlspace supports in this home!
