Thrasher Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This family noticed that their driveway concrete slabs were sinking, cracking and getting worse. Beneath their driveway, water from rain and melting snow was gradually washing away the soil that supported the concrete slabs, allowing them to sink into voids and crack under its own weight. Fortunately the homeowners called Thrasher while the problem could still be repaired, and we injected Polylevel polyurethane foam beneath the slabs to lift, level and provide the necessary support. Now the homeowners have the peace of mind that comes from knowing their concrete won't be hurting their curb appeal.

Darrin M. in Burwell, NE, was frustrated with the settling of his front doorstep. After years of water infiltration in our Midwest climate, it’s common for steps like these to separate and begin to fail. Looking for a permanent solution, Darrin gave Thrasher a call to have one of our System Design Specialists come out and inspect the problematic area.

Brandon Headrick, our System Design Specialist, arrived at the home in Burwell, NE, and noticed that the front step had sunk and the sidewalk and walkway leading to the front door. The customer opted to have Thrasher install our 2-part concrete protection system to lift, level, and seal the sunken areas. Our PolyLevel foam was installed first to lift and level the sunken areas and then sealed with the NexusPro to prevent any water from infiltrating in the future.

Darrin was thrilled with his entire Thrasher experience and gave us a rewarding review! His concrete was in great shape, but the sunken areas created an eyesore and a potential tripping hazard. We were able to restore his peace of mind and install the permanent solution his concrete needed. 

Thrasher was called out to return stability to a house addition that was settling, working around a existing piering system that had failed, installed by a contractor that would not stand behind their work. Sometimes the lowest price is no bargain.

Just like a vehicle, routine maintenance of your sump pump will help ensure that it continues to function properly for years and years. In this instance, the homeowner had never serviced their waterproofing system after installation, and eventually the pump failed when they needed it most. Iron ochre deposits due to water quality in the area had built up and compromised the pump, which we cleaned during our inspection and repair visit. A little precaution goes a long way!

Barbara H. is a homeowner in Lebanon, MO, and wanted peace of mind knowing her basement would stay dry year-round as the transition began into the colder seasons. She had some concerns with water infiltrating the home’s foundation, so she gave us a call to thoroughly inspect the property.

System Design Specialist Chris Bolander arrived at the home in Lebanon, MO, and determined that the downspouts were releasing water next to the home’s foundation causing extreme saturation levels in the soil. To permanently solve this issue, our crews buried each downspout 10 feet from the house to release the captured water far from the home’s foundation walls.

Barbara was very pleased with her Thrasher experience and was relieved to know that her basement would stay dry throughout each year.
