Crawlspace Waterproofing and Foundation Settlement in Nisswa, MN
Challenge
Recently, in Nisswa, MN, homeowners began to notice troubling signs in their kitchen. The flooring and cabinets were shifting subtly, with an incline becoming evident when cooking oil slid to one side of the pan. This shift raised concerns about potential damage extending to their crawlspace or basement. The homeowners feared that without intervention, the kitchen’s integrity might be compromised, leading to possible collapse into the space below.
Solution
To address these issues, our expert System Design Specialist conducted a thorough evaluation and identified foundational problems as the cause of the shifting. We recommended the PowerBrace™ system, a robust solution designed to stabilize and correct the shifting. Our skilled production team installed the PowerBrace system meticulously, ensuring optimal positioning of each bracket to halt further movement.
Additionally, we discovered moisture intrusion in the basement as a contributing factor. To combat this, we installed a combination of key products: CleanSpace® for encapsulation, the TripleSafe™ Sump Pump, UltraSump™ System, and IceGuard®. CleanSpace protects against moisture, the sump pumps efficiently remove water, and IceGuard prevents backups from freezing conditions.
By the end of the project, we successfully restored the kitchen’s stability and addressed moisture issues, enhancing the home’s resilience and providing the homeowners with long-term peace of mind.
