This homeowner was concerned with the stability of their home's floors. We installed SmartJacks in the home's crawlspace to give the home the extra support in needed. Customer was left happy with the peace of mind knowing that their floors are supported.
As you can see from the photos there was a lot of water in this crawl space. The homeowners were unable to sell their home due to standing water in their crawl space and needed to get this repaired. They contacted us and it was decided that a full encapsulation was the right solution for their home. The white vapor barrier you can see is CleanSpace and is 20 mil thick. This is designed to keep water and moisture out of a crawl space.
This customer's basement wall was bowing inward and very close to failing all together. Wall anchors were installed to not only secure the wall but also straighten the wall over time. Also, surface bonding cement was added to the wall to seal the cracks.
This Kentucky home had an unpleasant looking sidewalk that had shifted and became uneven. This created not only an eyesore and cracks but also a tripping hazard. The homeowners were already having us encapsulate their crawl space, so they thought they might as well permanently fix everything in their home before anything got worse and the value of the home decreased.
They called us and we knew exactly what to do!
We started by leveling the concrete with PolyLevel by injecting the foam below the concrete. PolyLevel's lightweight makes it useful where denser fill material might impose an undesirable load on weak soils. Despite its lightweight, PolyLevel can support substantial loads; it typically provides greater lifting power than mudjacking.
We then sealed the cracks where they were previously sealed, but the sealant used had warped and broken off in places allowing water to infiltrate. Unlike traditional polyurethane sealants, NexusPro resists UV rays, which means it won't crack, bubble or dry! NexusPro is a silicone-based sealant for joints and cracks specially engineered to provide long-lasting flexibility and to stand up to harsh weather conditions.
The homeowners now have a healthy crawl space, a level, and sealed sidewalk.. and most of all a peace of mind!
What an AMAZING transformation with this sinking concrete!
