These Dearborn, MI homeowners had reached out to HomeSpec to waterproof their basement. Water had damaged wall coverings, baseboards, and carpet. This concerned the family not only about the damage but also about mold and air quality. Their goal was to turn the basement into a safe area for their children to enjoy. With the threat of active water intrusion solved, the homeowners began to wonder about next steps. They contacted HomeSpec once more with the intention of installing basement finishing products for the walls and floors.
David, the same project manager who helped this family waterproof their basement, came back to the home to discuss options available. He recommended installing Basement to Beautiful™ Panels to insulate the walls and ThermalDry® Elite Plank Flooring. This combination would keep the basement dry, warm, and make the space feel usable again. The homeowners agreed to this combination and were happy with the finished results! The crew that installed these products were led by Jon, a talented foreman.
A Dearborn, MI resident moved into their home 30 years ago. This homeowner intends to leave the house to their daughters and plans to remodel and refresh everything. The first issue they decided to tackle was fixing the driveway and the garage. After some searching, they called HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair for a free estimate.
One of HomeSpec’s project managers, Yann, went out to the home and investigated all of the concrete. He discussed with the homeowner the best way to meet the homeowner’s goals. The first step would be to lift the concrete using PolyLevel® Injection Foam. The second step would be to seal the joints and any cracks by using NexusPro sealant. The end result would be leveled, sealed concrete, and a clean aesthetic. The homeowner agreed to this plan and worked out a schedule for the HomeSpec foreman and crew to complete the project.
A homeowner in Lake Orion, MI was preparing to sell their home when an inspector for the interested party discovered mold and moisture in the crawl space. The current homeowner wanted to ensure this was addressed so the sale could proceed. They called HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair to see what could be done about getting the crawl space repaired.
Zach, a senior project manager for HomeSpec, entered the crawl space to do another inspection. Afterward, he recommended that the homeowner allow HomeSpec to use Mold-X2 to address the mold and encapsulate the crawl space using CleanSpace®. This combination would get rid of the mold and prevent it from coming back. The homeowner agreed to this plan and a HomeSpec crew led by foreman David went forward with the repairs. The crawl space was transformed from damp, dirty, and unlevel to a dry, clean, and balanced zone.
Your sump pump should always be pumping water away from your foundation. Especially if you live in an area with a high water table or a high level of water around your foundation, you need a reliable sump pump to keep your basement from flooding. This Melvindale homeowner did not have that - sometimes her sump pump wouldn't work at all. This made her constantly worry, until she finally contacted HomeSpec.
Our crew installed a brand new TripleSafe sump pump. This provides triple the protection with 3 powerful pumps that expel 2,000 gallons of water every hour.
Now the homeowner doesn't have to worry about her basement flooding, knowing it's in good hands.
Beams were used to stabilize basement walls that were cracked.
