Thrasher Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This homeowner has tenants living in her basement and wants to ensure they have dry living conditions. She was getting water into her basement because of heavy rain and hydrostatic pressure on her foundation walls that allowed water to seep in. We were able to fix the problem by fully waterproofing her basement. We used our WaterGuard system and CleanSpace system, to make sure no water comes off the walls or through the cracks. Now this homeowner and her tenants can have peace of mind knowing they won't have to worry about the water. 

This customer just moved into her home a year ago and gave us a call because she wanted to know all there is to know about waterproofing and what systems they currently had in place. While we were at her home we discovered there was a blockage in the discharge line to one of her pumps that a landscaping wall had crushed. In order to get the line to work we had to dig a new trench over the wall and replace the ice guard, the lawn scape discharge, and the drain line. 

The homeowner called Thrasher to fix their sinking steps before the problem got worse and more expensive to fix the longer it went on. Instead of using outdated Mudjacking, Thrasher used a better method called PolyLevel. Mudjacking can make the problem worse over time and is messy, with slurry coming out of holes and cracks. It also takes a long time to dry. On the other hand, PolyLevel is a modern solution. It uses lightweight polymers to lift and stabilize the concrete. It's clean and fast, and it doesn't put extra weight or pressure on weak soils. This method is great for driveways, sidewalks, patios, and pool decks.

An un-level sidewalk is a common problem that Thrasher Foundation Repair can quickly fix. Sidewalks endure significant wear and tear, and when the soil supporting a cement slab weakens, cracks and sinking can occur. There are several possible causes for this issue, such as erosion from rainwater, decaying tree roots, poor yard drainage, or improperly compacted dirt fill underneath the slab. Uneven sidewalk slabs pose a tripping hazard for your family, guests, and neighbors. At Thrasher Foundation Repair, we have the solution. Our PolyLevel system lifts, levels, and stabilizes sidewalks. Additionally, for smaller cracks, we use NexusPro to fill and seal cracks and control joints.

We recently had the opportunity to help Jan with her sunken concrete steps.  We were able to restore her steps to their original position and stability with Polylevel.  This happens by injecting polyurethane foam beneath the concrete through tiny ports, no larger than a penny. It starts off flowing like water, so it fills even the tiniest spots in the soil. As the foam expands and hardens, it lifts the slab and compresses the surrounding soil. Thanks to the fast drying time of PolyLevel, Jan was able to use her steps on the same day. At Thrasher Foundation Repair, we are committed to delivering high-quality foundation repair services that exceed our customers' expectations.
