Thrasher Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Cindy A. is a homeowner in Hutchinson, KS and has dealt with water issues in the basement for a majority of the 35 years she’s lived there. Lately, she’s been considering selling the home and wants to ensure it would bring maximum value, but with the wet basement she wasn’t sure it would sell. Based on our reputation and recommendations from her loved ones, she chose Thrasher to come waterproof her wet basement.

To begin the basement waterproofing project, System Design Specialist Robert Griffin arrived at the home in Hutchinson, KS to inspect the problems at hand. Robert concluded that the foundation had been allowing water and moisture in due to the lack of an exterior footing drain. The home was built in the 1970s and was originally constructed without one. This caused the walls to crack and begin to bow inward. To guarantee the basement stays dry permanently, Cindy had our teams install a combination of our waterproofing products. We began by installing our WaterGuard interior drainage system and CleanSpace waterproof barrier around the full perimeter of the basement. Then, a TripleSafe sump pump was installed to drain the water effectively outside. To conclude the project, our team buried the downspouts on the exterior of the home to prevent any water from building up against the foundation walls.

Cindy was not only thrilled with the outcome, but she was relieved to have her basement restored to a dry and safe environment once again. Thrasher was able to help Cindy regain her peace of mind and give her the confidence she needs by increasing her home’s value.

Roger and Lisa F. are proud homeowners in Granville, IA but their basement had become a nonfunctional space due to a surplus of moisture seeping in. The basement had developed into a musty and damp area they felt wasn’t a healthy enough environment to be used. However, they wanted to be able to utilize the space for living, storage, and as a playroom for their grandchildren. Roger and Lisa were familiar with our reputation of wet basement repair, and they were thrilled with the solutions we offered.

To begin the basement project, our System design Specialist Jeff McCormick arrived at the Granville, IA home to perform a thorough inspection. Roger and Lisa opted to have Thrasher install a combination of our basement waterproofing products to guarantee the space stays dry year-round. Our team began by installing our WaterGuard interior drainage system around the full perimeter of the basement. CleanSpace waterproof barrier was then applied to all the walls to prevent any moisture from seeping through the cracks. To discharge the collected water outside, two TripleSafe sump pump systems were installed. Lastly, the team installed our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to prevent any mold growth, eliminate odors, and to keep humidity levels under control.

Roger and Lisa were ecstatic with the outcome of the project. They couldn’t believe the effectiveness and efficiency of the waterproofing solutions we offer. Thrasher was able to transform their unusable basement into a highly functional space for them and their family.

Dave H. has been wanting to finish his basement to add more living space. He noticed that water was entering in multiple areas, and it was affecting the project. Looking to continue with finishing the basement, he called Thrasher Foundation Repair to learn more about waterproofing his basement.

System Design Specialist Tyler Dopheide went out to Dave’s home. He was able to identify the areas that water was coming in and come up with a water proofing solution for the basement. The crew started with installing WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement and then installing a Triple Safe Sump Pump, so then the water would have a place to go and not collect in the basement. Then to keep the walls dry, we encapsulated the space with CleanSpace. Dave was very happy with how the project turned out and gave us a 10/10.

Erica B. is a homeowner in Kansas City, MO that had major concerns with her front concrete walkway leading to her house. It had settled over the years causing it to slant downhill and crack in multiple areas. The walkway had gotten so severe that Erica avoided using the walkway in the winter out of caution of her own safety. She knew the walkway was only going to get worse, so she decided to have it repaired. She chose Thrasher because of our dedication to providing a permanent and effective solution.

To begin the concrete repair, System Design Specialist Tyler Lothrop arrived at the home in Kansas City to perform a full inspection on the walkway. It was determined that the settling of the concrete occurred because of poor soil conditions and drainage that washed the soil out. Erica opted to have the team install our 2-Part Concrete Protection System to level and seal the concrete. Our PolyLevel foam was installed first by injecting it underneath the sunken concrete to permanently lift and level it. NexusPro sealer was then applied to all cracks and control joints to prevent any water intrusion and problems from occurring in the future.

Erica was excited and relieved to have her walkway functional once again. We take pride in being able to restore a homeowner’s peace of mind and increasing the value of their home.

Mary K. is a homeowner in Columbus, NE and was frustrated with the concrete in front of her garage. It had settled over time creating a large drop off from the garage floor to the driveway, making it an extreme tripping hazard. With grandkids learning how to walk, she knew it was time to have it repaired. She chose Thrasher because she was familiar with our concrete repair solutions and knew it would be a fraction of the cost of having it replaced.

To begin the concrete leveling project, System Design Specialist Jesse White arrived at the home in Columbus to inspect the driveway. Jesse determined the concrete had settled in front of the garage due to soil washout underneath from water seeping in through the control joints. To repair this, Mary chose to have Thrasher install our 2-Part Concrete Protection System. Our PolyLevel concrete lifting foam is installed first by injecting underneath to permanently level the surface with the garage. NexusPro sealer was then applied to all cracks and control joints to prevent any water from creating issues long into the future.

Mary couldn’t have been more pleased with the outcome of the project. Thrasher was able to provide her a solution for a fraction of the cost of replacing the driveway. She now has peace of mind when her grandchildren visit and utilize the front of the house.
