Services:

• Waterproofing.
  Sump pumps and drain tile are common ways to address hydrostatic pressure.
• Epoxy Injection.
  Cracks can be found in practically all basements. In most cases, the common wall cracks pose no structural concerns of foundation failure. The biggest problem they cause is the leakage of water.
  The main purpose of concrete crack injection is to permanently fill the full length and depth of the crack and keep out water. Then, water cannot deteriorate the concrete and widen the crack further.
• Piering.
  Signs of foundation failure Cracks in drywall Doors or windows that stick Misaligned doors, molding or trim Cracks in floor or tile Cracks in Foundation Cracks in Brick Gaps around windows or doors.
• MudJacking.
  Mudjacking is a procedure which involves drilling (2") two inch diameter holes through the floor in the affected area, bringing in a hose, about the size of a firehose, with a nozzle that fits in the holes and pumping a thick mud grout under the floor.
  The grout is typically comprised of sandy loam soil, water and about (12%) twelve percent cement. The grout is pumped under the foundation with several hundred pounds of pressure until all voids are filled and the back pressure lifts the foundation to where it needs to be.
  Mudjacking has been successfully used to lift streets, porches, and driveways at a cost much lower than replacement.
• Helical tie-backs.
