Before & After Photos

This homeowner was ready to remodel the upstairs of her home, when she noticed that all the floors were sloping towards the middle of the home. She recognized that something was wrong and unstable about her home, so she wanted to fix this issue before remodeling. She gave us a call to have an inspection done on her home.

We sent System Design Specialist Anthony Salcedo to inspect the foundation and give the customer a comprehensive explanation of the problem. Anthony noticed that the floors were sagging due to an interior support beam that was sloping significantly due to a lack of support posts. Anthony and his team knew just what to do, so they began work right away when the customer decided on the solution she would move forward with. The team removed both existing posts and began drilling two helical soil nails deep into the earth. The Helical Piers System can support our SmartJacks, which were then installed so that the home's support beam now has proper support posts that run deep into the earth. 

The homeowner was very impressed with the whole process and the installation. Check out her home's new support system!

This homeowner was concerned with his home's foundation and the interior damage that was starting to occur as a result. Our team went out to take a look at the issue and concluded that hydrostatic pressure pushing on the walls from the outside caused wall deflection. Deflection is the bending of joists, trusses, or rafters. We used over 20 PowerBraces and 4 push piers to fix the foundation on all sides of the home. PowerBrace is a system that can be tightened over time, slowly reversing the wall failure. 

This homeowner was worried about his wall coming into his finished basement further because it had already started to cause interior damage. The reason this was happening was because hydrostatic pressure from his backfilled area was pushing on the area, causing it to move in. To fix the problem, we installed 5 GeoLock earth anchors to stabilize his wall and straighten them over time. Plus, we ended up finishing this project without disturbing the basement! 

This homeowner had to pull her house off the market due to structural issues. She wanted these foundation issues addressed and fixed in a timely manner so she could sell her home at full value. The soil on the outside of the wall had pushed the poured wall in about an inch, causing cracks in both corners and several drywall cracks in the finished area. We installed GeoLock earth anchors to permanently stabilize the foundation wall and prevent more inward movement. 

A customer was worried about their garage floor because there were big gaps around the edges, and they were afraid that rodents would sneak in during the winter. The options they were given were either too expensive or temporary. But Thrasher had a plan to save the day and their concrete. We used our PolyLevel solution to fix the problem at a much lower cost. We were able to start the work the next day and finish quickly. The customer was happy to know that their floor could be fixed without spending too much money.
