Foundation Repair in Lincoln, NE

This customer is living in their forever home. They've raised their family here, and when the nest's empty, they've decided to stay, too. Along the way, they've made a lot of upgrades to make sure their home maintains value. And their next project? Finishing the basement. But before they do that, they first need to address their home's foundation issues. That's why they called Thrasher. 

System Design Specialist, Wes Marshall, went out to their home to inspect the foundation. During the inspection, he noticed that the south wall of the house was showing signs of wall failure. The previous owners had a different company address the issue, but it appeared they only provided a band-aid solution. The installed wall supports were not properly braced or attached to the floor joists. Due to this mishap, they were actively failing.

The solution to this problem was installing wall anchors. There were too many obstacles in the floor joists to install PowerBraces, and with so much deflection, we decided wall anchors were the best solution. We installed the proper amount of wall anchors with spacing to provide a permanent solution. 

This is a classic case. So many homeowners are under the impression that what was previously installed provides desired results. In reality, in this homeowner's case, the braces were failing, and the wall was still moving. Luckily, Thrasher was able to identify the problem and come up with a permanent solution.
