Photo Album: Detroit, MI Crawl Space Strengthened by HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair
A Detroit, MI homeowner reached out to HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair for help with their crawl space. The owner wanted to find a solution that they could feel confident in and enjoy their home comfortably. They reached out to HomeSpec and scheduled a free estimate appointment with a senior project manager, Zach.
Zach spoke with the homeowner about their concerns and then entered the crawl space to provide a thorough inspection. He took detailed notes in order to suggest options that would align with the homeowner’s goals. Zach then exited the crawl space and discussed those options. Together, they developed a repair plan that consisted of support posts on concrete pads to reinforce the beams in the crawl space. These posts would significantly strengthen the existing support of the concrete block columns. A crew, led by a foreman named Jon, was later scheduled to install the support posts. The homeowner was happy with their work and the knowledge that their home was safer than it was before.
