The shifting that the concrete slabs in the driveway had done created a lot of tension on them. This pressure released by cracking the concrete in several places. We sealed these cracks together with NexusPro which also waterproofed the break.
The water seepage in this basement posed a unique problem because of its finished walls. In a few places we had to strip sheetrock back to install the interior drainage. The room housing the water filter and other utilities was particularly prone to high humidity and made it a perfect place to install the sump pump and SaniDry dehumidifier.
SmartJack supports and steel supplemental beams are installed into this crawlspace to permanently lift and stabilize the sinking foundation underneath the front porch.
Water was constantly getting into this crawl space making it easy to grow mold, and it started to ruin the fiberglass insulation. These issues were not solved with the existing plastic covering, so to fix the problem we installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier. This barrier keeps excess moisture out of the air and lets the crawl space stay drier.
Water seepage was causing increased pressure to crack and bow this block wall inward. To avoid a wall collapse, the homeowner hired us to install our carbon fiber strips that stabilize the wall.
