This Sandusky, MI home was moved into a little over a year ago. The new homeowner wanted to focus on the maintenance for the home’s longevity, which included the outside assets. The sidewalk and another concrete slab had sunk and they needed to be lifted. The homeowner reached out to HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair for a free estimate.
Noah, a project manager for HomeSpec, visited the home and investigated the property. Afterward, he discussed a repair plan with the homeowner. Noah shared that this was indeed a job HomeSpec could help with using specialized methods. The concrete could be lifted and leveled using PolyLevel® Injection Foam and then seal the cracks and joints using NexusPro sealant. The homeowner was interested in this approach and had HomeSpec move forward with the project. One of HomeSpec’s PolyLevel Foreman, Domonique, led his team in the repair. The homeowner was happy with their work and to have a newly leveled sidewalk.

This customer purchased a home from their grandfather a year ago with the plans of living there for a long time. In the excitement of renovating the home to include a man cave and a mudroom, the homeowner and their partner found black mold in the basement. In the year of living in their new home, their allergies had worsened and illness became apparent. The couple reached out to HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair to not only get rid of the mold but also keep it away.
One of HomeSpec’s project managers, Elon, visited the home to provide a free inspection. He did a thorough assessment before returning to the homeowners to discuss a plan to repair their basement. Elon recommended first applying Mold-X2 and then moving on to the waterproofing efforts. This included installing an interior drainage system featuring WaterGuard® French drains, a new sump pump, a new sump pump discharge, and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. The couple agreed to this repair plan and scheduled a HomeSpec crew to move forward. The crew was led by a foreman named Vernon and any plumbing concerns were addressed by Rick. The homeowners were happy with the final results, being mold-free and protected from future water intrusions.

A Sand Creek, MI homeowner was concerned about water coming through their basement walls and flowing down the stairs. While they do not typically use the space, they still worry about water getting in and causing damage. They needed a solution to prevent a damp basement without breaking the bank, so they called HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair.
One of HomeSpec’s project managers, Yann, inspected the basement, stairs, and other areas of the home to offer the best solutions. He recommended installing a TrenchDrain™ Grated Draining Pipe at the bottom of the stairs and lining the staircase walls with CleanSpace® vapor barrier. This system could then feed into the WaterGuard® interior drainage system, sump pump, and sump discharge. The homeowner agreed to these repairs and HomeSpec scheduled foremen Jon and Vernon to lead their teams in the installations. They were pleased with the final product and knew their basement would stay dry.
