Before & After Photos

Homeowner Keith wanted to find a solution to ensure that his home was safe and protected.  Since this customer has been happy with our work in the past, he chose Thrasher Foundation Repair to help secure this part of his home.

System Design Specialist Ryan Allen was able to come up with a permanent solution that fit the customers needs.  Since the wall was short, we installed Geolock anchors to secure the wall prevent the joints from getting worse.

Check out the before and after of this project! These homeowners were having complications with their walls falling in after extending their garage and putting on an addition. To help combat this issue and give it a permanent fix, we installed a full perimeter of Power Braces. These Power Braces are full height braces that help prevent any further movement in of the walls. They also can help straighten out the wall over time. These Power Braces also come with a 25 year warranty, which will ensure these homeowners stay protected. 

Leslie W. has only lived in her home a few years. Last year there was a water break causing her driveway to sink. After falling on the driveway, she was worried that it would become a trip hazard for others, she decided to give us a call.

System Design Specialist Ryan Van Cleave went out to the home and was able to identify that one third of the driveway had settled. We were able to use PolyLevel to lift and level the sunken concrete effectively eliminating the trip hazard. To keep water from entering the rest of the control joints in the driveway and sidewalk leading up to the house we used NexusPro to seal up all the control joints giving Leslie the peace of mind that the rest of the concrete will not settle.

Janet has lived in her home for over 50 years. She also envisions her daughter moving into it in the future. Needless to say, this farmhouse will be in the family for the unforeseeable future. That's why when Janet noticed her unstable basement walls, she knew she had to fix them. She reached out to several foundation repair companies and noted that Thrasher was the only one that took the time to look at the entire foundation and explain precisely why her walls were cracking. 

One of our System Design Specialists, Trevor Stokes, went out to her property and found that the south wall of the house was bowing in from soil weight and pressure against it. On top of that, the north half of the home sits on a crawl space, and the beams were sagging from inadequate supports, which made the north side of the crawl space sink. As a result, Janet was experiencing sloping floors, sticking doors, and drywall cracks throughout her home. 

We installed EverBrace to stabilize the south wall and prevent it from bowing any further to fix these issues. Then we installed helical piers and SmartJacks in the crawlspace to stabilize the floor and keep the north side of the foundation from sinking any further.

Janet was impressed with how hard the crew worked and how fast they could get it all done, especially considering the team had to make several unique adjustments to the situation. 

Carol H. in Spirit Lake, IA, was looking to downsize into a smaller home but noticed cracks on the outside of her current house that she has had patched up before. Uncomfortable selling the house with foundation cracks, she gave us a call because of our reputation and transferrable warranty to the next homeowner when she does choose to sell. 

Our System Design Specialist Corey Little arrived at the home in Spirit Lake and performed a thorough inspection of the home's foundation. This problem continued to occur because the home was continuously settling over time. Carol opted to have our crews install 12 push piers to permanently lift and stabilize the foundation. 

Carol was impressed with her Thrasher experience and the effort we put forth into our customer service. It was rewarding to restore her peace of mind and give her the confidence she needed to move forward in the selling process.
