In Saline, MI a homeowner was preparing to sell the house they grew up in. Unfortunately, their foundation walls were riddled with cracks, some of which had been leaking water into the basement. The homeowner wanted to fix these cracks before selling the house to someone else. So, they reached out to HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair for help. The free inspection was scheduled with one of the senior project managers, Keith.
On the day of the appointment, Keith arrived and spoke with the homeowner about their worries and goals. He evaluated the foundation walls and the entirety of the basement. He took thorough notes of the conditions so the homeowner would have an informed opinion of how they wanted their home repaired. Keith proposed fixing the basement wall cracks with high pressure urethane injections and stabilizing the walls with the PowerBrace™ Wall Repair System. Stabilizing the walls would prevent more cracks from forming and injecting the cracks would stop water from entering the basement. The homeowner approved of these recommendations and scheduled the repairs to be made. The HomeSpec teams that completed this project were led by Jon and Mike, and the homeowner was pleased with their repairs!

Wet basements are not fun for anyone - water can damage furniture and belongings stored downstairs, mold can grow and cause health problems, and homeowners can waste a lot time and money cleaning it up. If water is constantly seeping into a basement, it can eventually flood severely. A homeowner in Ecorse, Michigan dealt with a wet basement for many years, and after a serious flood finally decided to install a full waterproofing system.
After a thorough inspection and many conversations with the homeowner about his needs, the project manager proposed a solution. That solution included a perimeter drainage system, sump pump, and vapor barrier.
The drainage system + sump pump is integral to waterproof a basement. They prevent water from flooding into the basement by collecting it first then funneling it away from the home. The vapor barrier prevents moisture and water vapor from entering through the walls, and instead directs it down to the drain. It also covers the unsightly stains on the concrete wall.
The homeowner is very satisficed with his newly dry basement, and he's thankful he doesn't have to stress about it anymore.
