Porch Made Peaceful Once More in Des Moines, IA

Monica really enjoyed spending time in her yard and on her porch during summer nights. However, there was a problem with her front porch. It wasn't properly supported, so the slabs were sinking. This was creating an uneven surface that was easy to trip on.

 

To fix these issues, we came up with a full solution. First, we installed piers to stabilize and lift the porch foundation, making sure it was strong and secure. Then, we used a product called Polylevel to level the uneven slabs on the porch and give it a smooth and even surface again. This project was important because it showed that some foundation problems are more complicated and need a thorough approach. With the right products and customized solutions, we were able to successfully repair the foundation.

 

Now, Monica can enjoy her front porch without worrying about tripping or safety hazards. This project not only demonstrates our ability to tackle complex foundation problems, but it also shows our dedication to providing long-lasting solutions that give our clients peace of mind.

 

Weak Walls, Foundation Settlement, and Water Fixed in Reinbeck, IA

Linn wanted to fix various issues in her home to sell it without worries and use the basement for storage. The basement had problems with walls, settlement, and water damage. We fixed the walls using PowerBraces, which is a reliable support system. Settlement issues were corrected with push piers, and we waterproofed the basement with WaterGuard, full-height CleanSpace, and a sump pump.

 

Linn was very happy with our work and communication throughout the project. She would happily recommend our services because of the positive experience and peace of mind she got. Even Linn's son, Allen, was impressed and felt more secure.

 

Our efforts solved multiple problems, provided effective solutions, and made Linn's selling process worry-free. The home's value was also increased.

Basement Finishing Preparation in Windsor Heights, IA

Julie, a relatively new homeowner, had a strong desire to renovate her basement but realized that addressing the water issue was a prerequisite. Initially, Julie had contacted us for a concrete appointment, as the lack of proper sealing against the home was resulting in water infiltration into the basement. She suspected that the water was entering through the unsealed joints, causing moisture-related problems. Furthermore, the existing Waterguard system had become ineffective over time, leading to water seepage onto the carpet.

To tackle these challenges comprehensively, our team implemented a series of solutions. Firstly, we installed a full perimeter Waterguard system around the foundation to effectively manage water intrusion. Additionally, a new sump pump was installed in the pit to enhance water drainage. Lastly, we sealed the joints against the house using Nexus Pro, a reliable sealing product, to prevent water from infiltrating the basement.

By undertaking these measures, we ensured that Julie's basement was prepared for the desired renovations. The installation of the Waterguard system, along with the new sump pump and joint sealing, addressed the water-related issues, providing a secure and dry environment for future basement remodeling projects.

 

Bowing Walls Supported in Perry, IA

This customer encountered a situation where two walls within the property were bowing inward. While aware of the issue, it had remained unresolved, even though the previous owner had attempted a temporary fix by installing a single brace on each wall. Given the urgency and the need for a proper solution, our team undertook the task of addressing the problem appropriately.

To rectify the situation, we installed power braces, a reliable and effective product designed to halt the inward movement of the walls. The strategic use of power braces allowed for gradual adjustment over time, enabling us to progressively correct the inward bowing and restore the walls to their intended position.

By employing power braces, we provided the customer with a long-term and reliable solution, ensuring that the issue was not only resolved promptly but also addressed in a manner that would prevent any future recurrence.
