HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

A new homeowner in Hazel Park, MI was concerned that the floors in their new home were not structurally sound. Realizing the issue when they purchased the home, they reached out to us to have the old supports replaced with the SmartJack Support System. The SmartJack would ensure the floors remained structurally stable for years to come. 

This homeowner in Detroit, MI was experiencing water leaking into their basement which was causing mold to grow and leading to further health issues, we solved this issue by re-flooring the basement and installing a WaterGuard Drainage system to prevent any further damage.

A homeowner in Detroit, MI experienced a shock most people won’t, their home was hit by a neighbor’s car. There was damage to both the outside and inside of the house which included a horizontal crack lining the foundation wall. The homeowner wanted to have the damage repaired and prevent the foundation from getting worse. They called HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair for a professional evaluation.

Mark, one of HomeSpec’s senior project managers, visited the house to inspect the true scope of the damage and develop a repair plan. He took notes of the measurements and then spoke with the homeowner about the best way to repair their home. Mark suggested installing CarbonArmor® Wall Reinforcing System to secure the foundation wall and prevent it from moving or bowing. The homeowner agreed to this plan and scheduled a crew to move forward with the project. They were happy with the completed project and looking forward to turning the basement into a living area now that the foundation was stable.

A homeowner in Detroit had been putting off encapsulating their crawl space for some time and when the floors finally started to become unbearable, they reached out to us to have their issue solved. With the CleanSpace encapsulation system, the crawl space remains dry and protected, preventing moisture and debris from building up. 

These homeowners contacted HomeSpec because they were suffering from a wet basement in their old Detroit home. They had made attempts to fix the drainage, but everything failed. Water was seeping through the block foundation walls after heavy rain, causing the paint on the walls to peel. The floors would also be damp. The basement was in bad shape and the homeowners didn't want to stress about any longer. 

Our team solved this problem by completely waterproofing the basement with an interior drainage system, vapor barrier, dehumidifier, and two new sump pumps. The vapor barrier over the walls will prevent water vapor and moisture from entering the basement and instead direct it down to the drainage system. After the water drains into the drainage system, it'll be directed toward the sump pump and expelled away from the home, preventing water issues.
