Support Poles upgraded to SmartJack in Oskaloosa, IA.

Oskaloosa residents noticed sagging floors due to old support poles in the basement. They reached out to Thrasher Foundation Repair for support to fix the bounce and slop in the main level of the home. After a free inspection, the homeowner said "yes" to the recommendation of Supportworks SmartJack System. Four advantages of SmartJack System are quick installation, any time of year with minimal disruption. Zinc-plated and galvanized steel components prevent rust. Immediately lifts sagging, sloping floors back up, and supports loads that exceed the standard residential home.   

The homeowner is pleased with the SmartJack System installed by Thrasher Foundation Repair experts. 

Supplemental Beams Installed Using SmartJack System in Hubbard, IA

Theresa C. noticed sagging floors in her kitchen and hallway near the washer and dryer. The floors on the main level were starting to settle. She thought the solution would be to install new flooring, but a flooring specialist recommended better support was needed first. She decided to call us to have a look.

We had a System Design Specialist, Nicholas Hruska, go to her home to evaluate what we could do to fix the problem. He noticed that her support jacks were not supporting the floor above which was causing the sagging. We fixed the problem by installing a new supplemental beam with 3 SmartJacks. The support beam under the hallway which had the washer and dryer above was in good shape but the wood columns were splitting and moving because they did not have a solid footing under and could not support the weight. We installed 4 new SmartJacks with good footings under the existing beam. Her floors have now lifted about a 1/2 inch and as a result, was able to put in new floors!

Foundation Wall Stabilized in Des Moines, IA

New homeowners Kirk and Sue W. recently moved into their new home. Ready to start remodeling, they wanted to fix the basement so they could use it as storage. One of the walls had multiple cracks and they wanted to reduce as much moisture as they could from entering the home.  Kirk and Sue decided to give Thrasher Foundation Repair a call.

We sent System Design Specialist Tyler Dopheide out to the home. The foundation wall that had multiple cracks in it was allowing water to enter the basement, which was allowing moisture to enter the home at a high level. We first installed PowerBraces to reduce further wall failure. Next, we installed WaterGuard and CleanSpace to reduce water and humidity from entering the home. Once the project was completed Kirk and Sue felt comfortable and reassured their basement would be free of further wall failure and water damage!

Repairing uneven sidewalks in Ankeny Iowa

In Ankeny, Iowa the concrete settled and created a tripping hazard on the sidewalk. They did not want anyone to get hurt. We used Polylevel foam to level out the slabs and we used NexusPro joint sealant to caulk the joints so no water gets in underneath the slab.
