Our Engineered Solutions
We design and install customized foundation stabilization systems and basement waterproofing channels. Read our structural process details below.
Foundation Stabilization & Lift
When soils shift, compact, or erode due to heavy water flows, foundations settle unevenly, resulting in structural cracks and bowing basement walls. Local specialists install load-tested foundation piers and anchors designed to support and lift your home permanently.
-
Steel Push Piers: Driven deep into solid bedrock or load-bearing soils to support foundation footings and actively lift the home back to its original grade.
-
Helical Piers: Ideal for lighter structures, porches, and new additions. Helical plates are screwed deep into load-bearing soils.
-
Carbon-Fiber Strapping: High-tensile carbon-fiber straps bonded directly to basement walls to stop bowing concrete blocks permanently without taking up living space.
Technical Specifications
Our foundation repair systems are designed by structural engineers and manufactured in the USA with heavy-duty galvanized steel.

Basement Waterproofing Systems
Basement walls act as a pool in water-saturated soils. Hydrostatic pressure forces groundwater leaks through seams and joints. Our sub-floor French drainage system intercepts water before it enters your home and redirects it to an industrial sump pump basin.
-
Interior Drainage Channels: A sub-floor perforated French drain system set in crushed granite aggregate to route leaks away from walls.
-
Cast-Iron Sump Pumps: Premium dual-pump systems with smart controller boards and dedicated battery backup systems to prevent storm flooding during outages.
-
Basement Wall Vapor Shield: A durable plastic barrier paneling that seals moisture and channels seepage straight down to the drain system.
Water Mitigation Specs
Our industrial sump pump and internal French drain systems run automatically, silently, and efficiently to secure your storage space.

Crawl Space Encapsulation
Unsealed crawl spaces introduce cold drafts, musty smells, humidity, mold, and wood rot into your main floor. By sealing crawl space vents, covering dirt floors with a thick vapor barrier, and regulating moisture with a dehumidifier, we create an energy-efficient home footprint.
-
20-Mil Polyethylene Vapor Barrier: Heavy-duty, white vapor barrier sheet covering the floor and walls, preventing radon gas and ground humidity from escaping.
-
Structural Dehumidification: Automated low-temperature dehumidifiers that maintain crawl space humidity levels below 55% to stop mold growth.
-
Crawl Space Vent Seals: Durable vent covers and foam rim-joist insulation packages that block humid summer air and cold winter winds.
Encapsulation Specifications
A fully encapsulated crawl space acts like a finished cellar, preventing wood pests, decreasing utility costs, and improving indoor air quality.

Concrete Lifting & Slabjacking
Sunken driveways, uneven sidewalks, and cracking pool decks are dangerous tripping hazards and collect ponding water. Instead of breaking up and replacing the concrete, we inject structural polyurethane foam below the slabs to lift and support them permanently.
-
Polyurethane Injecting (Slabjacking): Small penny-sized holes are drilled, and expanding polymer foam is injected to lift concrete panels within minutes.
-
Slab Crack & Joint Sealing: Flexible polyurethane joint sealers are applied to stop water infiltration from eroding subgrade soils.
-
Basement Slab Leveling: Stabilizing hollow spots below basement slabs to prevent cracking before floor replacements.
Polymer Leveling Specs
Slabjacking is less disruptive, costs up to 60% less than concrete replacements, and can support vehicle traffic within 30 minutes of injection.
