Basement waterproofing & foundation repair in Papillion, NE.
It’s no secret that our town is one of the best places to live in Nebraska. Look anywhere around the internet and you’ll likely see good ole’ Papio showing up on list after list of “hidden jewels” and “secret places to retire”. At Thrasher Foundation Repair, we’ve had the pleasure of serving the Papillion area for decades. Our experience in foundation repair, basement waterproofing, concrete repair, and more dates back to 1975. It seems crazy to think it, but when we got our start in the industry, Papillion was home to a mere 6,000 residents. That’s a far cry from today’s tally of around 20,000, and a sure sign that people are starting to figure out just how good we have it here.
Papillion rests at the southern fringe of the Omaha Metro, about 20 minutes from the Old Market on a day without traffic. Omaha and the surrounding cities emerged near the confluence of the Platte and Missouri rivers and quickly became a stop for westward travelers and fur traders before they attempted to cross the plains. Papio Creek, running through the center of town, provided the city its namesake. French explorers, noticing the abundance of butterflies on the creek’s grassy banks, named the city after the winged creatures, the French word for which is papillon.
Of course, not everything is rainbows and butterflies in Papillion. Being in such proximity to two rivers known for flooding, the possibility of water intrusion leading to foundation and basement damage is a consistent threat. The Big Papillion Creek, Walnut Creek, and Midland Creek have flooded to the point of forcing evacuations on several occasions, and the Papio Creek Watershed is considered to be the most flood-prone area in the entire state of Nebraska. With the possibility of heavy water damage and the area’s easily-eroded loess-based soils, it sure is nice to know that the experts at Thrasher Foundation Repair have you covered.
Over the decades, our experts have honed their skills in the full spectrum of foundation repair and basement waterproofing techniques, expanding into and perfecting solutions in the realm of concrete slab leveling and repair, gutter installation, crawl space repair, and more. We specialize in both preventative measures and repairs after damages have occurred. We don’t just know how to get the job done - we know where we’re doing it, and who we’re doing it for.
We offer no-cost, no-obligation estimates for clients in Papillion and the surrounding area. Call now to schedule yours today!
Reviews From Papillion
I was very impressed in the way Mel Martinez, crew chief, presented himself and his crew to my wife and me. He explained what they were going to do and they did it in a timely manner. Thank you for sending Mel.

Your representatives presentation was great, but the book you sent in advance is what I really found helpful. You products were the best I could find. Overall it was an excellent job. I wish other contractors would follow your approach.
By Joan C. of Papillion, NE
I choose Thrasher because I saw ads on Tv and when I asked around three friends had had good experiences. The workmen were very pleasant and the clean up was excellent.

Reliable basement waterproofing in Papillion
Floods have had major impacts on the Omaha metropolitan area over the decades, notably in 1959, 1964, and 1965. Storms in each of these years brought with them walls of water that swept homes off their foundations and caused millions in property damages. While a flood of such magnitude is fairly rare, minor floods and general water intrusion into your home and basement are all too common.
Thrasher Foundation Repair offers a suite of basement waterproofing products including sump pumps, drainage systems, vapor mitigation systems, and more. We can evaluate your home’s risk for future water damage and prescribe the proper solution to fit your needs exactly. We’ve got basement waterproofing down to a science, and we’re excited to make your home ready for whatever the elements may throw at you.

Crawl space repair & encapsulation services in Papillion
Much like basements, crawl spaces are prone to damage from water and water vapor intrusion. If not properly maintained, a crawl space can succumb to the damp darkness beneath your home, inviting pests, molds, and foul odors. Over time, these issues can lead to the decay of supporting beams and other spaces under your home, degrading your home’s structural integrity.
In many cases, it’s easy to forget about your crawl space. If you don’t access the area regularly, and no major issues develop, this critical part of your structure can fall by the mental wayside. At Thrasher Foundation Repair, we take our crawl space repair and encapsulation work very seriously. A dirty and damp crawl space can be the area from which any number of issues arise, such as mold, foundation cracks, wood rot and decay, and more. Proactive measures can help ensure this fate never befalls your home, and we’re ready to provide you the expertise and materials to get the job done right.
Whether you require repairs for a crawl space in need of some tender love and care, or you’d like to avoid crawl space issues in the future, give the professionals a call. We offer free estimates for clients in the Papillion area and throughout Nebraska.

Expert foundation repair services in Papillion
Simply put, your home’s foundation is the most important structural component of the entire building. It’s the first piece installed during the homebuilding process and serves as the backbone for the structure. Over time, foundations can be damaged by the elements. Hydrostatic pressure can cause cracks in foundation floors and walls, resulting in seepage. Upward pressures from beneath the floor slab can draw water vapor and other unwanted gasses through the floor, weakening the structure. Heavy rains, freezing and thawing cycles, shifting soil conditions - all of these play their role in weakening your foundation over the years.
In Papillion, we know that weather can change in an instant. While we don’t have the harshest winters in the country, our city has its share of freezing, thawing, and heavy seasonal storms. Our soil is loess-based and tends to erode during heavy water events. The soil is quite porous and offers the benefit of hasty drainage, but it can also drain away moisture too quickly, occasionally leaving areas of soil beneath your home in a weakened state.
The experts at Thrasher Foundation Repair are prepared to repair any foundation in Papillion. If you’re experiencing bowing walls, cracks around door and window frames, sinking floors, or tilting chimneys, then you know it’s time to call in the professionals.

Concrete, while strong, is not a permanent structure.
