Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This home in Frankfort, Kentucky had stair-step cracking in their crawlspace walls. This was resulting in all different types of waterproofing and structural problems for the homeowner, so we gave them our best effort. We installed powerbraces in order to combat the foundation issues, and we also cleaned some of the floor joists with anabec cleaner in order to remove some of the mold that was growing. We also installed our waterproofing products to keep the basement dry and to keep from furthering structure damage due to mold. CleanSpace encapsulation, TripleSafe sump pump, and a WaterGuard drainage system, are able to do the trick very well. The customer is happy their homes foundation is healthy and dry. 

This home was showing signs of foundation movement, cracked walls, sticking doors, and window gaps. You can see the owners sprayed orange foam insulation in between the door cracks, but as we all know, this was not a permanent solution. We found the root of the problem on one side of the house, so we installed helical piers on that side. The foundation will now cease to move for the foreseeable future. 

The PowerBraces we installed are able to hold up this wall, which was shifting horizontally. 

Settling was causing the outside brick to stair-step crack. We stopped further settlement by attaching our piers to the falling footer, then drilling the piers down into stable soil. We also used hydraulics to barely tap the foundation back to where it was originally.
