Wall Failure Stabilized in Morrill, KS

Greg in Morrill, KS was getting worried about the foundation walls. For years he had noticed some cracking appear but noticed the cracks started to get worse and appear for frequently. After getting a recommendation to call Thrasher, he gave us a call.

System Design Specialist Nico Lemmers went out to the home. During the inspection, he was able to identify that the walls were in extreme wall failure. The crew installed the EverBrace Wall System to permanently stabilize two of the foundation walls. Greg was thrilled with how hard the crew worked and how everything turned out.

Deflecting Wall Repair

This homeowner uses his basement as an office and has become worried that the walls are coming in. Our team discovered that the walls were deflecting due to pressure. To repair the wall, we installed our PowerBrace foundation support system. 

Collapsing Basement Wall in Holstein, IA

Homeowner Debbie noticed her basement wall was bulging out quite a bit. Scared it would collapse and damage her home, she called Thrasher. That's when we sent System Design Specialist Corey Little out to her home to see what was going on.

After inspection, he determined the wall was in stage 2, almost stage 3, of wall failure with a 2 1/4" deflection. Right on the cusp of what we call extreme wall failure. Corey then took the time to discuss with Debbie what the issue was, why it was happening, and laid out how we can fix it. 

Once we decided on a plan, we went back to Debbie's house and used Powerbraces to support the wall. We chose to use Powerbraces because they will help avoid any obstructions on the other side of the wall. On top of that, it'll also help the wall to straighten overtime. 

Debbie let us know how relieved she was to hear her problem was fixable and happy she no longer has to worry about it. 

Wall Repair in Lake Park, IA

This home in Lark Park, IA had deteriorating basement walls that, in addition to bowing and cracking, were also letting cold winter air freely pass through the gaps created by movement over the years, leaving the basement feeling cold and uncomfortable. To return safety and stability to the walls, we used our new EverBrace wall repair system. We also installed SilveoGlo insulation material to keep the cold air out.

Wall Deflection Solved in Lakepark, IA

This homeowner wanted further protection of her home as she knew the water damage harmed her wall a lot before she utilized our waterproofing solutions. After the waterproofing solutions were completed, she wanted to have us look at her deflecting walls and determine what solutions would be best to combat this problem, so she called us out again.

We sent Service Technician Sam Hogan to inspect the wall, determine what the damage was, and come up with a solution to fix this problem. Sam found that due to hydrostatic pressure on the outside of the wall before waterproofing work was done, the wall had pushed 2 inches inward. While the problem was not progressing any more, the homeowner was determine to have this fixed for her safety, so Sam came for an installation appointment to help the inward moving walls. Sam and one of our installation teams used PowerBraces to stabilize the wall and move it back to its original position over time. 

The homeowner was very happy with the results as she knew that her home was stable for the future. Check out the installed PowerBraces!
