The concrete surrounding a Warren, MI home was unlevel in various spots across the property. The homeowner contacted HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair for a free inspection. At first, their biggest concern was the slabs in front of the garage because they would regularly have a trailer parked there. However, while the HomeSpec project manager was conducting the inspection, they found that more areas were sinking as well. Specifically, the walkway from the driveway to the front door. The homeowner agreed on a repair plan that would address all of their concrete leveling needs.
A foreman who specializes in concrete repair, Fred, led a team in the installation process. First, they drilled holes through the slabs to access the underside of the walkway. Then, they used PolyLevel® Injection Foam to lift the concrete slabs until they were even across the entire path. Finally, the crew sealed the joints using NexusPro sealant. They continued this process on the driveway and garage. When they had completed the project, the homeowner was happy with the work of the HomeSpec crew.
Located in Sterling Heights, MI, a homeowner’s crawl space was not properly finished. Because of this, they were experiencing pests in the crawl space. The homeowner reached out to HomeSpec for help encapsulating their basement, hoping it would fix the pest problem as well as keep the moisture out. Knowing they could help, HomeSpec sent a project manager to inspect the home.
Once the inspection was complete, HomeSpec presented a repair plan to the homeowner. This plan started with the SilverGlo™ Crawl Space Insulation System. This insulation system would add a radiant heat barrier while fighting off moisture at the same time. Next would be the installation of a CleanSpace® Crawl Space Encapsulation System. This system would add the layer of protection the homeowner desired, keeping out pests as well as maintaining a dry crawl space. To finish, HomeSpec would add a Sanidry dehumidifier. This would prevent the growth of moisture and mold, creating a healthier living space. Once the homeowner accepted the plan, a team led by Kevin and Jon got to work on the repairs. When the project was done, the homeowner was glad to have a pest-free home and a healthier living area.
An unfinished basement in Sterling Heights, MI began leaking through cracks in the walls. The homeowner feared that things would get far worse if it went unaddressed. With no plans of moving, they intended to finish the basement and make it a safe place for their kids to play. They reached out to HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair for a free estimate on the cost of fixing their basement.
Jeremiah, one of HomeSpec’s senior project managers, went out to the home. He met with the owner and talked about what they had noticed before being shown the basement. Jeremiah took measurements throughout the area and noted where water was intruding. After careful evaluation, he went to speak with the homeowner again and proposed a solution. While the basement did have an existing discharge, it did not have a WaterGuard® interior drainage system, an UltraSump® Battery Backup System, or a CleanSpace® vapor barrier. Jeremiah shared information about how these waterproofing products could protect the basement from further water damage. The homeowner approved of these recommendations and had them installed by a HomeSpec crew!
