Sunken Walkway Lifted in Maple Grove, MN
A homeowner from Maple Grove, MN, had been aware of her front concrete walkway slowly settling over the years. She feared that if she let the problem worsen, it might be more costly to fix down the road. She had no idea who to turn to for concrete repairs near Maple Grove, MN. She hopped on the internet and eventually found our website. She was impressed with our past work in the area, so she signed up for her FREE estimate, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Gary, headed out to the home.
Gary inspected the concrete, and when he finished his inspection, he informed the homeowner that we could address the sinking concrete with the help of our PolyLevel injection. PolyLevel is a dense polyurethane foam that expands when it's injected beneath concrete slabs. It slowly fills voids left by soil erosion and, in the process, lifts the concrete back to it's desired location. Gary went on to say that he recommended sealing off the concrete with our NexusPro. This silicone-based sealant gets applied directly to the cracks and joints in the newly lifted concrete and acts as a barrier to keep unwanted moisture out. The homeowner agreed with Gary's recommendations and scheduled the job on the spot.
On the day of the project, our Foreman, Dylon V, headed out to the home and was able to complete the lift and seal with no complications. Now, our customer can put her worries about her concrete behind her!
Failing Foundation Finds Solution in Maple Grove, MN
A homeowner from Maple Grove, MN, was in the middle of a basement renovation when he ripped out some drywall, exposing severe wall failure underneath. The homeowner was immediately uneasy about what this could mean for the home's structural integrity. He was unsure how to repair the foundation crack and decided to find a basement specialist to assist him. After seeing our website, he signed up for a FREE estimate and several weeks later, Adam V, one of our Design Specialists, was headed out to the home.
When Adam arrived, he headed right down into the basement to see the extent of the damage. When he finished his walkthrough, he met with the homeowner to deliver his recommendation. Adam began by explaining that foundation walls are designed to withstand pressure from above, not from the side. So when the side pressure on a wall exceeds what it can withstand, it's not uncommon for homeowners to see cracking, sliding in at the bottom, bowing, and/or tilting inward at the top. Adam could tell the homeowner seemed uneasy, so he reassured him that while the problem seemed daunting, the solution was fairly simple. Adam recommended our GeoLock wall anchors. These anchors work to counteract the pressure being put on the wall by anchoring the failing wall to the hard-packed, undisturbed soil beyond the foundation, pulling the wall back into place. Adam finished by saying that, once installed, the anchors would be tightened down the road as the house continues to shift and settle. The homeowner was relieved that Adam could explain the problem, as well as a comprehensive solution, and decided to sign on the spot.
On the day of the project, our Foreman, Matt Z, was able to lead his team through a flawless installation of 5 GeoLock anchors throughout the basement of the home. Now, our customer can continue on with his basement renovation, knowing the foundation of his home is in tip-top shape!
Radon Mitigation System Installers in Dexter, MN
In Dexter, MN, a homeowner had learned that radon is a toxic gas that enters from the soil beneath the home and that it was the second leading cause of lung cancer in the US. Concerned that their family was breathing in the toxic gas, the homeowner purchased a radon testing kit from a hardware store. In a couple of days, the test results were above 4pCi/L, and the homeowner contacted us to schedule their FREE estimate.
In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Nate C., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, he took a close look at the layout of the home to determine the best placement of our radon mitigation system. Nate recommended installing the fan at the exterior of the home and connecting it to the concrete floor in the basement. Confident in our team, the homeowner decided to move forward with the project.
In about a month, our Foreman, Dakota M., arrived at the home for the installation. He began by drilling a small hole into the concrete floor and inserting a PVC pipe. The pipe is then connected to the fan installed outside of the home. Once everything is working properly, the crew cleaned up their equipment and left the home.
