This homeowner didn't want to come down to water in her basement because she had a bad experience with it in her previous home; she was also concerned about her foundation wall that was leaning in. She used our services for waterproofing in her previous home, so she decided to give us a call to waterproof her home once again.
We sent Service Technician Matt Stice to see what was happening with her foundation wall leaning in, help to fix the wall, and waterproof her basement. Matt found that hydrostatic pressure on the outside of the foundation wall was causing the wall to lean in, so he determine that with Geo-Lock Wall Anchors, the wall could be stabilized and moved back over time. After this, Matt and his team installed a full perimeter WaterGuard Interior Drainage System with a full height CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to seal and create a drain for water to get out of the basement. Finally, Matt installed a TripleSafe Sump Pump to ensure that water would leave the homeowner's house despite the conditions outside and even during power outages.
The homeowner was very happy with the projects that were completed in both her previous home, and her current home. Check out her newly waterproofed and stabilized basement and foundation wall!

Ryan and Gina G. are homeowners in Carl Junction, MO, and noticed that their energy bills were increasing each month. Their home had begun to feel damp and musty, so they continued to run the A/C to battle the humidity levels. In addition, they were worried about mold development and the air quality of their environment. Looking for a permanent solution, they gave Thrasher a call to hear about our home repair solutions.
After meeting with our System Design Specialist Sean Robinson, they knew we were the company for them to restore a healthy living space. Ryan and Gina opted to have our crews encapsulate the entire crawl space beneath their home and install our industry-leading dehumidifier. To encapsulate the space, we applied our CleanSpace waterproof vapor barrier to the entire area to trap all moisture before it escapes into the home. Our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was then installed to rid the home of high humidity levels and purify the air.
Ryan and Gina were impressed with the effectiveness of our solutions and the quality of their Thrasher experience. It’s projects like these when we partner with proud homeowners to make a meaningful impact that brings us the satisfaction we’re providing a redefining experience.
This homeowner loved to throw parties for friends and family. She was noticing her basement was becoming an issue. She was getting water in, cobwebs forming, and she was finding lots of bugs. She knew she would not be able to host if she did not fix it. She had heard great things about Thrasher and trusted we could give her the best solution. Neil Kwiatkowski, System Design Specialist, came out to meet with her. Together they decided to install CleanSpace to catch water from the wall and act as a barrier, WaterGuard our drainage channel that flows water to the sump pump, our TripleSafe sump pump to discharge water out of the home, and our dehumidifier to lower humidity levels. Check out the before and afters of this project! There is no doubt this homeowner is back to hosting her family and friends parties!
Edwin O. and Jessica D. noticed that one of the walls in their house was starting to fail and contacted their landlord. In the home was a homemade brace system and concerned for the safety of the home, the landlord gave us a call.
System Design Specialist Corey Little was able to identify the wall was on stage three of wall failure with three inches of deflection and daylight was coming when looking near the top. We started by fixing the wall by installing PowerBrace System which was able to permanently stabilize the home. Since the wall had so much damage, we had to Shortlock the wall. Then we interlocked rebar to the PowerBrace System and sprayed shotcrete giving them a new wall without having to replace the old one.
Not only was Corey able to come up with a solution that allowed them to say in the home the entire time and was the least invasive. The home now feels safe again and the finished product looks great!
