The Community Action Network in Ann Arbor was coordinating and paying for home rehabilitation for low-income households. This home was one of five that had been identified as needing new drainage in the crawl space. After the senior project manager, Erik, inspected the area and recommended more than just drainage to fully transform this home.
The representative and Erik decided together to install SmartSump™ Crawl Space Sump Pump System, SmartPipe™ perimeter drainage pipe, and CleanSpace® to waterproof the crawl space, insulation using SilverGlo™, and a rain garden where the water is discharged. This combination would protect the home and provide a clean aesthetic both inside and out. Foreman Jon led the HomeSpec crew in the repairs and installation. The Community Action Network enjoyed working with HomeSpec on this project so much that they continued to work on other homes as well.
A sump pump was installed in a home that had a water issue when it rained. The problem had persisted for years, so we installed an interior drainage system.
This family in Ann Arbor, MI wanted to have the crawl space in their new home encapsulated to prevent any future damage or odors from coming into the living space.
A homeowner in Ann Arbor, MI who had been experiencing persistent water damage in their basement had called us out to install the WaterGuard Drainage System in order to stem the leaks as well as provide security and peace of mind when they spend time in the basement.
A family in Ann Arbor, MI hit their breaking point with their driveway. It had been a tripping hazard for years but when it had started sloping towards the house, water was pooling and flooding the basement. The family wanted to fix the sidewalk to prevent things from getting worse and creating more issues. This was a wish not only for themselves but for the next homeowners as they plan to sell in the near future. So, they called HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair to learn more about what could be done.
One of HomeSpec’s project managers, Elon, went out to the home and provided a free inspection. He saw the severity of the cracking but knew this was a job HomeSpec could help with. He discussed a repair plan with the homeowners and informed them of the two products needed to fix their driveway. A foreman who specializes in PolyLevel® Injection Foam, like Fred, would drill holes through the concrete and use the foam to lift and level the sunken areas. Once the concrete was even, then the team would repair the cracks and joints using NexusPro sealant. The homeowners decided this was the best route for their driveway and scheduled HomeSpec out for the project. They were very happy to no longer have tripping hazards and to keep water away from the home’s foundation.
