Several of the foundation support piers under this building were sunken into the ground, uneven, and even collapsed. These problems are a result of shifting soil and/or erosion caused by water, which caused the piers to move and sink. Stabilizing the foundation permanently with SmartJack Support Posts was the most effective way to ensure the building's safety.
The WaterGuard system collects water that seeps through basement walls and drains it to your sump pump. The system installs quickly and has a clean finished appearance, meaning you don't have to worry about having an unsightly drain around the basement.
Cracks in the foundation wall allowed water to enter the basement. To ensure a permanently dry basement, a wall vapor barrier was installed with an interior drainage system.
This crawl space had humidity and a mold problem. Inspector, Tom B. explained to the homeowner how air flows in your home from bottom to top. If there is high humidity in your crawl space, then there will be humidity upstairs. The same concept with mold. Mold spores will travel through the air, moving upwards to the living space. This will lead to health, safety and comfort issues in your home. To prevent these issues, Tom discussed the Crawl Space Encapsulation System. CleanSpace will be installed through out the customers crawl space. CleanSpace is a patented vapor barrier system that stops any humidity to enter the crawl space, and will not allow for mold to grow through!
The foundation walls were cracked and bowing. Foundation stabilization was achieved by installing push piers. Galvanized steel tube sections are hydraulically driven through steel foundation brackets to reach the depths of competent soil. They're locked into place and the weight of your home is transferred from the original, unstable soil, through the piers, to the competent soil or bedrock.
