Homeowners Becky and Will recently moved into their new home and wanted to make sure they protected it so that it was safe and protected for years to come.
System Design Specialist Shane McClintic visited the home and was able to find a solution that the customers were confident in. We used Smartjacks to stabilize the main interior beam in the crawlspace, then added drainage matting, Cleanspace encapsulation and Sanidry Sedona to protect the home from moisture and humidity throughout.
Dirt crawl spaces are common, but they can cause issues to homes. The problems include sagging floors which can be repaired with floor jacks and dirt in vents which can be solved with crawl space encapsulation. In addition, there can be moisture in the crawl space which can be prevented or mitigated with a vapor barrier like CleanSpace.
A home in Forsyth, MO had a dirt crawl space that needed to be repaired. The Thrasher Foundation Repair installed our CleanSpace product. This allowed the homeowner to use the crawl space as a storage area.
Homeowner Joseph has been concerned about the foundation under his front porch. They had a large crack that allowed water to come in. Joseph was told by other contractors that the only solution was to demolish the space and rebuild, which was costly.
We sent System Design Specialist, Rob, to the home to provide a free on-the-spot estimate. We determined that a better, less expensive solution was to waterproof the area with our Water Guard drainage system and install Power Braces to prevent further damage to the walls. WaterGuard is an innovative drainage system that is designed to solve water problems without clogging from the soils underneath. It’s a permanent solution that’s guaranteed to keep the basement dry year-round.
Cruz and Mary are homeowners in Battlefield, MO, and had high humidity levels developing over the last few years. The couple knew they needed their crawl space encapsulated, and after meeting with our System Design Specialist Nick Rosenthal, they immediately chose Thrasher to provide the best possible solution.
To encapsulate their crawl space, our crews used our CleanSpace waterproof barrier throughout the space, drainage matting, blocking vents, and added a new entrance to the space for convenience and maximum efficiency.
Cruz and Mary, we're more than pleased with the results and excited to have this issue behind them. We were able to restore their peace of mind and assure them their home is a safe environment long into the future.
When water soaks into the concrete walls of your basement, the soil around your house expands and pushes against your foundation. This can cause cracks, leaks, and even foundation problems.
We install our CleanSpace vapor barrier, which is mechanically attached to your basement walls and protects them from water damage. For walls that have already moved inward, we use our PowerBrace system to stabilize and straighten them over time.
Don't wait until your basement is flooded to take action.
