Before & After Photos

Kathy S. is a homeowner in Guide Rock, NE with a future of staying in this estate. However, the brick foundation of her home was deteriorating and beginning to fail. In order to protect her investment, she decided it was time to have it taken care of. Familiar with our reputation at Thrasher, she gave us a call to get the job done right.

 To begin the project, System Design Specialist Brandon Headrick arrived at the scene to inspect the failing foundation walls. After presenting a variety of solutions, the customer opted to have our ShotLock Restoration System installed to permanently fix the walls. This product utilizes our GeoLock Wall Anchors to stabilize both the external, and internal surfaces of the foundation.

 Kathy was more than pleased with the appearance of the restored foundation, and the display of professionalism from our teams throughout the duration of the project.

Lorraine, KS - Many older homes exhibit signs of foundation settlement, including cracked walls and ceilings. To resolve this issue and restore stability to the homes foundation, Thrasher installed supplemental support beams and jacks in the crawl space to support the floor and fireplace.

Charlie and Sarah were getting ready to do some projects on their home in Bushton, KS. Before starting any projects, they wanted to have their foundation walls inspected. After doing some research on foundation repair contractors, they gave Thrasher a call.

System Design Specialist Rob Griffin went out to Charlie and Sarah’s home. Rob recommended installing PowerBraces because one of the walls had started to bow out due to pressure from the outside. The crews installed the PowerBrace giving Charlie and Sarah peace of mind.

New homeowner Kelsie K. and her family recently moved into a new home. As they started doing renovations, they found a plumbing leak and as they started to remove the drywall, they found mold and wall cracks. Worried about the wall cracks and how this could impact their renovations, Kelsie decided to call Thrasher.

System Design Specialist Jeremey Scott went out to Kelsie’s home. He was able to see that two walls were bowing 2.5” and one of the walls were starting to shear. Using a mixture of wall solutions, we able to stabilize the walls using PowerBraces and lever brackets. C-Channel anchors were installed to protect the walls from further sheering. Kelsie and her family where extremely happy to have a peace of mind knowing their walls were fully stabilized.

This wall was in dire condition, reaching the point of crumbling and collapsing onto the basement floor. Due to the severe condition, our only solution was our EverBrace Wall Restoration System.

The EverBrace system offers an innovative approach to tackle severe wall failure head-on. The system uses steel corrugated panels and steel I-beam that work together to stabilize existing foundation walls. We inject a specialized rigid foam behind these panels to fill every gap, and move the weight from the original walls to the new walls. 

The purpose behind this system is to redistribute the load from the compromised wall to the new support framework. It's the best alternative to full foundation replacement. Instead of removing the entire foundation, homeowners and business owners can opt to use the EverBrace system and get the same results as replacing the foundation.
