Before & After Photos

Bob was doing some remodeling in his home and wanted the foundation of the room supported. He had a crawlspace under the area that had been neglected for years. He heard great things from Thrasher Foundation Repair and needed help. After cleaning out the crawlspace, James and his team installed SmartJacks and CleanSpace and insured the integrity of the home.

This customer has lived in her home for quite a while, but recently she's noticed one of her basement walls start to crumble. She's concerned that if it isn't fixed soon the wall could completely fail. The home was built a long time ago and likely had a crawlspace foundation. At some point they dug out the crawlspace and made room for storage and for the HVAC and water heater. Rather than installing a proper concrete wall, they put a concrete skim coating over the dirt wall that was dug out. Over time the pressure of the soil caused the concrete to fail. To repair the wall we used two Smartjack XT to support the floor above, and EverBrace to reinforce the basement wall to prevent any further degradation. 

These homeowners recently purchased their home for their kids and grandkids to live in, however they had some concerns with the foundation and needed to get it fixed. After looking into companies that do foundation repair, they reached out to us for a free estimate.

We sent System Design Specialist Rob Griffin to inspect the home's foundation to determine what was causing the foundation concern. Rob found that the fireplace was pulling away from the house, creating a gap between the outside wall and the chimney. He also saw that the garage was sinking because of weak fill soil that could not hold the weight of these structures. After thoroughly understanding the problem, Rob talked to the homeowners about options to solve this, and they loved how he described the options, so they decided to move forward with us. Our team installed Push Piers to stabilize the home and they were able to fix the problem by leveling the chimney and home.

The homeowners were very happy with the quality of work the crew did on their home. Check out the leveled chimney and home! 

In Colorado, the soil can cause problems for many foundations. This home was built on special supports called caissons to stop it from sinking into the soil. But there was a mistake—the house sank and twisted because the foundation was too heavy for the caissons. Other contractors thought the walls were leaning, but that wasn't the real problem. Even the engineer didn't put the support piers in the right place to stabilize the whole house.

To fix it, we made a plan to install piers all around the house to stop the home from sinking and to stabilize the foundation. We also used smart jacks to support the main beam in the middle of the house. 

Before Thrasher fixed the problems, the homeowner wasn't allowed to sell the house because of the problems it had. But when we fixed it, they said the crews did a good job and finished on time. They were so happy that they even asked us to do more work with concrete for them. They trusted us with their home and we hope you can too.

This was a long-time rental home that was experiencing deflection. Saturated soils around the home foundation were causing wall failure on all three of her exterior basement walls.  Additionally, water was coming in through foundation cracks and through the cold joint, saturating the carpet and damaging the finished walls. To fix this issue permanently, our Denver crew got busy to install our PowerBraces to stabilize the foundation walls and install a full perimeter waterproofing system with WaterGuard and CleanSpace. These systems are the best solutions to prevent further wall and water damage.
