Thrasher Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Doug and Mary C. have plans to sell their home in Omaha, NE within the next few years and wanted to maximize its value. The home had some concrete issues throughout, and they knew it was time to have them repaired before they got any worse with more time. There were multiple settled areas on the driveway and back patio, and multiple cracks spreading across the driveway. They chose Thrasher to repair their concrete needs because they believed in our solutions and trusted our reputation. 

To begin the concrete repair, System Design Specialist Ben Hawley arrived at the Omaha, NE home to undergo a full inspection of the concrete around the home. Doug and Mary opted to have our teams install our two-part concrete protection system that consists of PolyLevel foam and NexusPro sealer. PolyLevel is installed first by injecting the foam underneath the concrete to permanently lift and level it. NexusPro sealer is then applied to all cracks and joints to prevent any water from breaching the surface in the future. In addition to the two-part system, the crew installed our CompressionGuard, a 3-inch-wide expansion joint, to give the concrete a range of motion during the change of seasons and prevent damage to the foundation.

Doug and Mary couldn’t have been happier with their Thrasher experience. They were impressed with the crew’s efficiency and our dedication to providing the highest quality solution. Our concrete repair solutions enhanced the curb appeal of their home in order to bring maximum value and restore their peace of mind.

Linda S. Yutan, NE is part of Thrasher’s annual maintenance program. Each year she gets her Thrasher system checked out to make sure that is performing well. During the visit, an inspection is performed by one our service technicians to make sure nothing else comes up for the homeowner.

During the annual maintenance appointment Service Technician Wes Marshall inspected the gutters. He found that the gutters were completely full of branches and helicopters. With the gutters completely clogged, water would go right back over the gutters and potentially back into the foundation walls, impacting the waterproofing that she had done on her basement.

The crew installed RainDrop on top of the gutters to keep any debris from entering the gutters, only allowing water to enter and keep the gutters clean. Linda was very pleased with how RainDrop looked over the top of her gutters and thrilled to know this wouldn’t be a problem again.

Homeowners Lee and Debra P. in Newton, KS needed concrete repair. The concrete had settled in many different areas in the driveway and raised a lot of safety concerns. Looking to get rid of the safety concerns, they called Thrasher for some concrete driveway repair.

We sent System Design Specialist Josh Brown out to their home. He was able to see that the settlement that had occurred in the driveway was causing safety concerns, making it hard to utilize the driveway and hurting the appearance of the concrete. To start with the concrete repair, we first used PolyLevel to lift all of the areas where settlement occurred. Then we used NexusPro Joint Sealant to seal and protect all the joints and cracks.

Homeowners Daniel and Sharon Z. recently moved into their lake home. They noticed that the basement had high levels of humidity and were concerned with how this would affect their health and the home. The home’s crawl space was previously encapsulated by Thrasher, and they have worked with us in the past, so they felt confident that we could help them take control of the humidity.

Service Technician Daniel Hilkemann went out to their home. The home lacked a dehumidifier, and we installed a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier to reduce the relative humidity in the crawl space and purify the air.  Daniel and Sharon were glad to have a peace of mind in knowing the crawl space would remain mold free and the new dehumidifier would keep the air clean.

Brad T. is a homeowner in Nemaha, IA and was experiencing some issues with his foundation walls. The failing foundation was allowing water to seep in through the cracks and harming the living quality of the environment. The excess moisture was causing mold growth and a damp atmosphere in the basement. In search for a permanent solution, Brad gave Thrasher a call because of our reputation and excellent customer service.

System Design Specialist Jordan Comstock arrived at the home in Nemaha, IA to undergo a thorough inspection on the foundation walls. Jordan determined the walls were experiencing stage-two wall failure that was causing them to bow inward and allow water to infiltrate the space. In addition, water was also entering through the cold joints of a foundation add-on in the late 70’s. To combat these issues, Brad chose to have Thrasher install a combination of our waterproofing and foundation products. We began by applying our CleanSpace waterproof barrier to the full height of the foundation walls and a TripleSafe sump pump system to drain the water effectively. Then, our PowerBrace wall support system was installed to stabilize the bowing foundation.

Brad was thrilled to have his homes foundation issues repaired and a thing of the past. Thrasher was able to not only restore his foundation walls, but also his peace of mind knowing his basement is a safe place once again.
