Cracking on Home's Exterior Wall
This stair-step crack is typically once a block wall foundation begins to settle.
Foundation Cracking Leads to Leaky Basement
The foundation cracks seen here, run beneath the ground's surface. This is the results of forces of nature and soil movement over time.
Snowmelt Finds Basement in Duluth, MN
Later winter thaws and early spring rains often bring unwanted water into our basements.
WaterGuard® Along Basement Perimeter
Our team installed our WaterGuard® interior drain system along this wall. The drain will catch any water passing in through the basement footing and carry it to the basement sump pump.
Slab Lifted with PolyLevel
After the sinking foundation was lifted, our team injected voids beneath the concrete floor using PolyLevel.
Foundation Lift Complete, Soil Graded
Our team graded the soil away of the home to encourage water to flow away from the foundation.
Cracks Sealed with NexusPro
After the push piers were installed, our team sealed the foundation cracks with NexusPro to prevent any leaking.
Foundation Restored, Cracks Filled
The white lines you see here were gaps and cracks in the foundation that allowed water to seep into the basement. After the foundation was lifted, our team took the time to seal these cracks to prevent water from leaking in the future.
Push Pier Steel Brackets
Our team dug down to the footing of the foundation and installed steel brackets. From there, steel tubes are driven into the ground to transfer the weight of the home to weight-bearing strata.
Push Piers Installed and Lift Procedure Complete
After the push piers are anchored to the home's footing, they are hydraulically driven into the ground, transferring the weight of the home onto stable soil, deep beneath the surface.
