Before & After Photos

These homeowners inherited a 100 year old home from their neighbors. They now rent this home to their youngest boy, and started to see some bowing. They heard of Thrasher reputation and quality of work we have done with several other properties throughout the area, so they gave us a call. System Design Specialist, Joe Dearth, came out to meet with them. Joe did an inspection and noticed that washout from several years of rain, then the drought caused the soil to shrink. During the winter months the frost line would freeze and expand the soil into the home, adding a contributing factor to the bowing wall. There were too many utilities in the way to do PowerBraces, so Joe determined we use Wall Anchors. These are metal plates installed to the wall with a rod anchoring them 12 feet out into the existing yard. There is no doubt these homeowners are now feeling safe as ever in their home! Check out these before and after photos! 

Steve is a homeowner in Russell, KS, who needed some basement waterproofing. He was tired of dealing with water coming into his basement and cleaning up after it would rain. System Design Specialist Justin Seiler also found saw some of the foundation walls were bowing recommended a solution for both problems. Crews started with installing WaterGuard and CleanSpace to prevent water from coming into the basement. We also stabilized the foundation walls with PowerBraces and GeoLock Wall Anchors to stabilize the walls. Steve was happy with how the whole project came together!  

This customer and his wife have lived in their home for 30 years now. At some point, they hope to sell their home and move out of the state. They want to ensure that their basement wall does not cave in to ensure their property value. This clay brick home is over 100 years old and hydrostatic pressure over all of those years caused the wall to bow. We installed our EverBrace system to stabilize the wall and ensure that it won't cave in.

This customer has already had one side of their foundation repaired and wanted to fix two more to keep their forever home in great shape. The problem was that both the west and south walls were deflecting. We stabilized these walls by installing PowerBraces to them. 

Years and years of washout and dryout took a toll on this heavy concrete block porch. The house was settling with noticeable cracks on the interior and exterior. The homeowner even recalled hearing a creaking noise at night. We installed helical piers on the porch and house to fix this and permanently stabilize the house.
