He explained that the damage had been getting worse over the past week, and was now running across the top of the door frame. We were able to provide a solution that will fix the problem and prevent any further damage.

The main floor of this home started to sag and sink over the years. Gravity and basic wear and tear were becoming health hazards to the home.

We went under the home and installed our patented SmartJacks to help support and permanently stabilize the floor. This stabilization provided some lift but was primarily installed to keep the floor form further sagging.

Moldy and sagging, this crawl space needed serious repairs. The homeowners started to notice the mold growth and musty smell coming from the crawl space and were concerned. They also noticed that the living room floor was sagging.

We repaired the sagging floor by stabilizing it with our patented SmartJacks. These jacks can withstand tons of pressure and were perfect for the crawl space. We also encapsulated the crawl space to avoid moisture issues in the future. Our durable vapor barrier and dehumidifying air system keeps this crawl space dry and eliminated mold growth.

Lots of trash and debris built up under this home inside the crawl space. With water leaking in and moisture filing the air, it became damp and a prime location for mold growth.

The home was feeling the negative affects of the unprotected crawl space, so the homeowners hired us to permanently fix the issue. We proposed a full encapsulation that would seal water out of the area and keep inside the crawl space at a manageable humidity level.

Our CleanSpace vapor barrier was installed inside the entire crawl space as well as SilverGlo wall insulation. The homeowners were very happy with their newly protected home and could once again use their crawl space for the betterment of the house.

This basement was holding water inside its block walls and causing complications. Bubbling in the paint was a serious sign that made the homeowners want their home to be inspected.

We found that the poor and musty conditions inside the basement could be improved by installing our interior drainage system. Our system waterproofed this basement by collecting water intrusion, keeping it out of the basement, and pumping it outside.

The homeowners were thrilled with how unintrusive and foolproof the system is.

Sinking concrete piers and general aging started to sag the home’s floor. We inspected the home thoroughly through the crawl space and interior of the home and found that the sinkage was due to a lack of support.

Luckily, this support could be found in the form of SmartJacks. We added supplemental support beams and jacked them up against the floor joists. The jacks now rest on concrete pavers and can withstand thousands of pounds of pressure.

Over time we will be able to adjust these jacks to keep the home safe. The homeowners were thrilled with the results and their newly protected home.

Consistent runoff eroded and pushed the dirt out form under the concrete around this home and formed cracks. The changing pressure allowing cracks and shifting to develop. The homeowner hired us to find a proper solution to the water issues.

We were able to lift areas of the concrete and seal the cracks with our PolyLevel and NexusPro products. Also, we installed buried downspouts and drains along the edges and in trouble areas to funnel runoff into the downspout drainage. All the water was expelled and drained outside the home to an existing grate.

The homeowners were thrilled with the new system that will handle all the rainwater and keep it from harming the concrete around the home.

Underneath this home in High Point, NC there was the basement was experiencing extreme pressure from outside its walls. The pressure started to form small bowing at first and the homeowner applied carbon fiber strips to hold it back. However, in a short time, the other walls began to leak and crack severely.

The homeowner called us out to look at the reoccurring issue. We have the foundation equipment and products to handle this type of problem and suggested a PowerBraces with a waterproofing system. This way, the intruding water will not complicate the shifting wall and will be discharged out immediately. The PowerBraces are steel beam supports that are secured to the floor and supports above to hold back walls and can even be adjusted to help push walls back into place.

The job was finished, and the homeowners were happy. The basement under this home needed to be saved and we provided the exact solutions to do so.

Basements, such as this one, that are built partially above ground tend to experience water seepage quicker. This is because after each rain there is runoff and moist dirt running directly against the block or brick walls. All this water and moisture eventually seeps into the basement or evaporates into the basement air. This water was causing mold and pools of water to build up inside the home.

To fix the water intrusion and the related symptoms, we installed a full perimeter waterproofing system with WaterGuard and a TripleSafe sump pump. Also, we installed a SaniDry dehumidifying air system that will regulate the humidity in the basement to stop mold growth and keep existing mold dormant. After the installation we cleaned up and left the happy homeowners with a fully protected basement.

Just because there is not a cracked in your slab or peices missing does not mean that your slab does not need help.  In this instance, foundation issues were causing the slab to sink in some places.  This could be because the soil underneath your home is contracting or expanding, or because the fill soil was not compacted properly.  Even the best jobs can struggle with compacting the soil properly!  This problem will only lead to bigger issues, so fixing it when it is small is imperative.
