HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

The WaterGuard Drainage System is designed to keep basements dry and free from water damage, and it offers numerous benefits to these homeowners. For starters, it acts as a barrier against water intrusion and seepage, preventing water damage to valuables, furniture and important possessions stored in the basement. Furthermore, it helps to create a healthier indoor environment by reducing the risk of mold and mildew growth, which can negatively impact the air quality in the basement and the overall health of the family. Ultimately, the WaterGuard Drainage System was a smart investment for this family who wanted to safeguard their basement from water damage and improve the overall quality of their home.

Our team installed an interior drainage system in a basement where water was coming through the floor.

A homeowner in Roseville, MI decided that enough was enough and it was time to get their driveway fixed. Areas had sunken and plants were growing through the cracks. The unlevel concrete had caused damage to one of their cars. The homeowner wanted to leave the house to their son one day so the property needed this maintenance. They called HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair for a free inspection.

The project manager, Noah, looked at all of the concrete on the property and came up with a plan. He explained to the homeowner that the majority of the concrete could be repaired instead of replaced. The sunken slabs could be lifted and leveled using PolyLevel® Injection Foam and the cracks could be sealed using NexusPro sealant. The homeowner approved of this plan and had HomeSpec schedule their crews. Domonique, the PolyLevel foreman, led the lifting and leveling process. Meanwhile, Rick, another foreman, led the process of pouring new concrete in two specific spots. Together, they were able to completely revive the driveway. The homeowner was happy with their work and knew there would be no further issues.

A stabilization system was installed on the walls of the basement. Our crew also installed an interior drainage system. 

Most people want to keep their crawl space out of sight and out of mind. Unfortunately, the crawl space affects the overall health of your home, so it should be given some love and attention.

The wooden support beams in your crawl space carry the entire weight of the home and hold it up. It's safe to say that these joists are crucial to your home's structural integrity. So if these become compromised by moisture, so does the stability of your home. That's exactly what happened to this New Hudson home. 

Over time, the homeowners began noticing hints of a sagging crawl space - like a sagging kitchen floor and a gap between the wall and the floor. Little did they know, moisture was wreaking havoc in their crawl space - causing the joists to deteriorate. The vents and dirt ground were allowing in water and humidity, which led to mold and rot attacking the joists. 

To fix this problem, HomeSpec installed SmartJack support posts and encapsulated the crawl space. The weight is transferred to the support posts and the floors are elevated back to their original position - eliminating the sagging, bouncy floors. The encapsulation process seals the crawl space and prevents moisture from entering - creating a dry, healthy space.
