Before & After Photos

Jim and his wife have been in their home for 25 years and plan for it to be their forever home. They wanted to preserve the value of the home, and also prevent further future issues. They also knew leaving concrete issues unaddressed will only make things worse. They called up Thrasher because they knew we were a reputable company. They wanted a wholistic solution to their concrete problems and knew we could provide that for them! System Design Specialist, Britton Wood, came out to meet with the couple. Britton determined the concrete slabs were settling and cracking due to a couple of reasons; poor compaction of soil, water washout of underlying soil, and dry out from lack of moisture during dry periods over the years. This can cause voids under the concrete slabs, causing them to settle from a lack of support. Britton proposed we use our 3-Part Concrete Protection System. PolyLevel foam to lift and level the slabs back to place, NexusPro to seal up joints and cracks, and SealantPro to protect the surface from pitting and flaking. This couple was overjoyed with the outcome of the project. They could tell the crew worked really hard and it looks great. There is no doubt this couple is enjoying their forever home worry free! 

This homeowner wanted his back patio sealed because he was worried about water getting in his foundation and continuing to sink his patio. The problem was that the back patio had slightly settled and the previous caulking had hardened and cracked and no longer functioned properly. Our team cleaned out the old caulking which was challenging because it was so hard it was almost like cutting out concrete. We then installed NexusPro to properly seal the joints, creating a water-proof patio!

This concerned homeowner wanted to minimize people tripping on their way to her front door. The grading by the stairs was very steep and every tie it rained, water would wash out under the stairs, causing them to drop and settle. Our team used PolyLevel to lift the heavy stairs and sealed the joints with NExusPro to keep water out. We also advised this homeowner to have a landscaper come out and build the grading up next to the stairs so this won't happen again. 

Homeowner Bobbi Jo wanted to repair the concrete in front of her home in Blair, NE. The amount of settlement had created a tripping hazard. Bobbi Jo was worried about the impact this would have on the rest of the concrete. System Design Specialist Alan Ruiz was able to see that there was some water intrusion that had caused the soil to erode.  The crew started by using PolyLevel under the concrete to level it again and then applied NexuPro Joint Sealant to all the joints to prevent water from getting under the slab again. Bobbi Jo was impressed by the final result and hard work the crew put in. 

A homeowner in Blair, NE had noticed that the concrete leading out from her back door had begun to sink down. This was causing a tripping hazard and gave them concerns that someone would trip coming in or out the door. Wanting to fix the problem before it got any worse, they decided to have Thrasher come to see how we could help solve their problem. 

After the inspection, our team decided that PolyLevel foam and our NexusPro solutions would work best for this customer. PoleyLevel foam expands under the concrete to lift and support the slab without adding any extra weight to the soil underneath. Then NexusPro is used to seal and protect the joints in the concrete preventing water or other chemicals from getting under the slab causing these issues again. 

Our customer can now safely use their backdoor without the concerns of someone tripping over the settled concrete. They were thrilled with the results!
