It looks as if this customer had pre-existing foundation issues, and gotten them fixed, however they did not hold up and the customer was still dealing with the structural foundation of their home. They gave us a call here at Atlanta Basement Systems and we were able to send a sales representative out to look at the home, and see what we would be able to do to ensure that the foundation of the home was going to withstand. After the sales representative conducted an inspection they were able to determine that SmartJacks were going to be the answer to all of these problems. The SmartJacks are steel beams that are placed in the ground, down to the stable soil, and then surrounded with concrete for extra stability. All of the beams are then connected, and tightened in place, immediately leveling and securing the foundation. They help to transfer the weight of the foundation from the home onto the stable soil. This customer was left with the peace of mind of knowing that he was never going to have to deal with structural foundation issues again.
This homeowner called us here at Atlanta Basement Systems with concerns of foundation issues causing their garage lintel to sag. The foundation issues caused the brick of their home to spread, which caused the sag in the lintel. In the before photo, you can see the sag, and the cracks that had been caused by the foundation issues. Coley and his crew did a LintelLift, which is a curved steel beam, installed around the garage opening, which is then straightened out lifting the lintel of the garage. In turn, this fixes the sagging of the lintel, relieving the home of the foundation issues. The LintelLift will not repair the cracks, but those can be fixed, now that the concern is not with the integrity of the foundation of the home.
Moisture in this customers crawl space led to mold growth. To prevent future moisture and mold problems we installed our high performance SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier.
To prevent moisture from leaking through the dirt floor and walls in this customers crawl space, we encapsulated the space using our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System.
This homeowner reached out to us with concerns of a wet basement. When water infiltrates the basement, it can cause health and safety concerns for the homeowner, so we knew that as a company we wanted to assist them in every way we can. After inspection, it was found that this basement needed to be waterproofed. In this basement we installed, WaterGuard, CleanSpace and the TripleSafe sump pump. All three of these work to ensure that the basement will stay dry all of the time. This customer was left happy with the results, and we were happy that we could return the homeowners peace of mind in their home.
