HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

These homeowners in Canton, MI were concerned about their uneven driveway. They worried about the trip hazard not only for themselves but for friends and family. Another point that led them to want repairs was disliking the sunken appearance of their new home. They called HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair for an inspection. The project manager, Noah, did a walk-around with the homeowners to gauge the scenario. His suggestion to lift the concrete and seal the joints aligned with the homeowners’ vision and a HomeSpec crew was then scheduled for the repairs.

The PolyLevel foreman, Fred, led the crew in this concrete leveling service. They drilled holes into the sunken slabs and then used the PolyLevel® injection foam to lift the concrete until it was level with the other slabs. After ensuring the driveway was properly leveled, the team sealed the joints using NexusPro to offer a clean final look and protect the driveway.

A homeowner in Canton, MI noticed that over the last year, their driveway had more cracks than ever before. They wanted to seal these cracks and raise areas of the concrete that had sunk over time. Ideally, the driveway would be protected from cracks in the future, too. They plan to be in this home for the next ten years, until their child graduates. The homeowner called HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair for a free estimate.

Noah, a project manager for HomeSpec, went out to the home and inspected the driveway. He explained to the homeowner that this did align with HomeSpec’s repair plan and how the work would be completed. First, the team would cut through the plants growing in between the concrete. Then, where the concrete needed to be lifted, small holes would be drilled through to the other side. These holes would allow the foreman to use PolyLevel® Injection Foam to lift the concrete back into place. Finally, the joints would be sealed using NexusPro sealant. This would secure the driveway and provide a clean aesthetic. The homeowner agreed to this plan and had HomeSpec’s PolyLevel foreman, Domonique, and his team move forward with the repairs. They were very happy with the finished product!

A couple in Canton, MI loved their home and planned to pass it on to their kids one day in the future. Unfortunately, that vision was in danger of falling apart due to foundation problems. They could see the family room was sinking more and more as time went on. It was evident by the 1.5 inch gap between the wall and hardwood flooring. The homeowners struggled to enjoy the space as they feared it would get worse. With the desire to host family gatherings and protect their home, they contacted HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair for a free estimate.

HomeSpec sent one of their project managers, Jeremiah, to inspect the home’s situation and make a fitting recommendation. Many settlement issues can be fixed using piers or some other form of floor support. However, this home required a different approach. Jeremiah suggested using PolyLevel® Injection Foam to lift the slab the family room sits on and then seal any cracks by using NexusPro sealant. The homeowners agreed to this plan and then scheduled a HomeSpec team to do the work. Fred, a foreman who specializes in PolyLeveling jobs, led the crew and together they completed the job within one day. The homeowners were happy with the final results and would later install new flooring.

Prolonged instances of water damage to walls can become a very unsightly problem, especially with drywall being prone to mold growth when water damaged. The first instance shows a situation where a homeowner wasn't sure of the source, but water was seeping into her basement along her walls, staining and damaging them. The second image however, shows our installed BrightWall system. BrightWall is a fully waterproof solution and creates a vapor barrier on the basement walls to block out water vapor and humidity, ensuring the homeowner won't have to worry about mold growth or rot. BrightWall provides a lively clean look to the space while it also directs water seepage into the perimeter drain. Quite an impressive difference in visual appeal and functionality!
