Robin had gotten water in her basement and did not want to deal with it anymore. Her husband had been the one to take care of things and once he passed away, she wanted to have a permanent solution. After doing some research and asking around, she knew that Thrasher was the best option to help her. System Design Specialist, Tony Taylor, came out to help him. Tony did his inspection and found water was coming through the cold joints and running across the basement floor. To help combat this, we installed WaterGuard and TrenchBrain in the basement to collect the water coming up through the cold joint. The WaterGuard also assists with getting the water to the sump pump, which is discharge the water at a safe distance. Robin was very happy with this solution, and we know she has peace of mind for her home. 

This homeowner had started living on their own for the first time in a while, and was experiencing some water coming into the basement. She had heard some really good things about Thrasher, so she looked up reviews and gave us a call. System Design Specialist Nico Lemmers, came out to meet with them. Nico did a survey of the area and saw that the water was coming in through the cracks in her foundation wall. Together, the homeowner and Nico decided on a solution. They decided the best solution would be installing Cleanspace and WaterGuard that is linked to the TripleSafe Sump Pump. Cleanspace is our vapor barrier that keeps out moisture and lets water collect and filter into the WaterGuard. WaterGuard is our drainage system that collects water from the Cleanspace and from the cold joint. It then flows the water into the sump pump and the sump pump discharges the water at a safe distance from the house. The homeowner loved this solution and there is no doubt there is no more need to worry about water intruding the basement! 

This homeowner has a berm style home in the outskirts of Council Bluffs. She had been seeing issues getting progressively worse over the years and knew she needed someone out. She knew the Thrasher name from advertisements over the years, as well as recommendations from family and friends, so she gave us a call. System Design Specialist, Tim Wurgler, came out to meet her. After doing the inspection, Tim determined that the bowing in her walls were from wet clay soil expansion. She was having cracks in her bedroom wall and bathroom. Tim proposed we use our wall anchors to stop the wall from bowing in anymore. This area of her home was finished, so wall anchors were the best option to not disturb the finished areas. Wall anchors are comprised of plates on the walls and rods going through the plate, wall, and into the ground on the other side. Overtime, it is possible to tighten the rods to straighten the wall back out. This homeowner knew she could not prolong putting this project off any longer, so we sent out of installation team! She was very pleased with the outcome. There is no doubt she is feeling more at peace in her own space now!  

A homeowner in Council Bluffs, IA was worried about his concrete. He noticed that his walkway was sloping toward his house foundation. Concerned this would cause foundation problems, he gave us a call.

Upon inspection the Thrasher crew was able to identify the entire walkway was slopping toward the foundation. We were able to tilt the entire walkway away from the foundation with PolyLevel. The concrete was lifted 2-3 inches.
