Concrete Tripping Hazard Fixed in Des Moines, IA

This homeowner noticed her concrete sidewalk had cracked and settled. This caused an uneven sidewalk and a trip hazard leading up to her door and mailbox. She was very concerned about her or someone else tripping and getting hurt. It was first priority on her list of things to get done. We used polylevel foam to raise the sidewalk and make it an even walking surface. We then sealed the cracks and control joints with nexus pro to further protect the concrete.

Ames, IA Street Creep Retaining Wall Repair

A collapsing retaining wall that sits beneath a driveway that supports a bridge to the homes garage was in need of replacement. 

Street creep had pushed against the wall to the point of its collapse. Thrasher Foundation Repair replaced the wall with a new poured wall supported by stable fill to keep the pressure conditions consistent. 

We also placed helical tiebacks on two other retaining walls.

Water Problems In A Finished Basement Fixed in Ames, IA

Our customer reached out to us when she noticed that her son's room had a water problem. To stop this, we used two products: WaterGuard and CleanSpace. WaterGuard captures water seepage through walls and leaks along the wall/floor joint. It's discreet and easy to install. It's also made of durable plastic that lasts without corrosion or decay. CleanSpace is a vapor barrier that prevents moisture from rendering through the walls. This stops issues like rot, mold, rust, odors, and pests. It also acts as an air barrier, making the crawl space more temperature-controlled for warmer floors and lower energy bills. CleanSpace also hinders the movement of harmful gases like radon. When combined with a radon mitigation system, it creates a safer and healthier living environment. By using WaterGuard and CleanSpace, we successfully addressed the water infiltration problem in the finished room.
