Signs of a wet basement can be found throughout the home, even in the upper levels: musty smells, a decrease in air quality and energy efficiency, peeling or bubbling paint, buckling hardwood floors, and mold or mildew growth.

Without adequate structural support, some crawl spaces can even sink and cause shifting floors and walls in the upper levels of your home. HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair addresses and corrects damaged, ill-fitting crawl spaces across Saint Clair with the following services:

  • Crawl Space Insulation
  • Crawl Space Drainage
  • Crawl Space Encapsulation
  • Crawl Space Structural Repair

Expert Foundation Repair, Concrete Repair, & Concrete Leveling Services in Saint Clair

A damaged foundation can’t properly support your home and should be addressed at the first sign of trouble: bowing walls, cracked walls or floors, tilted chimneys, sloping floors, and pooling water, just to name a few. While foundation problems are an unavoidable part of homeownership, we want to make the repair process as stress-free as possible for you. Our team of highly trained foundation repair experts will safely restore the strength of your home’s foundation with our proven effective solutions:

  • Foundation piers - to stabilize your foundation against settlement with minimal disturbance to your home. Comes with a 25-year manufacturer warranty.
  • Foundation wall repair - to fix cracks, correct bowing or tilting walls, and add reliable support to keep your foundation walls stable.
  • Crawl space support posts - using the SmartJack® crawl space support system to provide support for sagging/undersized beams, restore stability, and correct sagging floor joists.

HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair also offers complete concrete repair services that restore and protect concrete inside and outside of your Saint Clair County home, including concrete driveways and sidewalks. Homeowners can benefit from our innovative concrete sealant that permanently bonds with one application to protect against UV rays and moisture for long-lasting protection on new and old concrete. If you have sloping concrete floors in your home, we will restore them with the PolyLevel concrete leveling system, a faster and longer-lasting alternative to mudjacking. PolyLevel cures in as little as 24 hours, adds very little weight as it lifts, and is far less messy than traditional mudjacking, making it ideal to use on interior slabs.

Job Stories From Saint Clair, MI
Foundation Settlement Repaired with Helical Piers in Saint Clair Shores, MI

A family in Saint Clair Shores, MI was looking to renovate their basement to use as a family room. Having just recently moved in, they wanted to add some property value, and create extra living space for their family. With no plans to move, they began by painting the walls, once they started to notice the cracks, worry set in. Having never experienced any foundation issues in the past, they consulted their neighbors for the best foundation repair companies nearby. This led them to contact HomeSpec BasementFix as the best fit for this job.

One of our foundation repair specialists, Ben, was sent to the home to discuss the homeowners concerns in more detail and provide a free inspection. After learning of the family’s plans to renovate the basement, he explained that shifting soils under the foundation, due to dry conditions or excess water, can cause the soil to shrink or wash out completely. This creates a void, allowing the foundation to sink. Ben proposed a solution for this sinking foundation repair that involved a Helical Pier support System which would further stabilize the foundation and bring it back to level. 

Our Helical Pier Support System is specifically designed to combat foundation settlement, with the helical plates welded to the shaft; they are screwed deeper into the ground to provide additional support to the foundation. Once our crew determined the appropriate depth, the next step was to advance the piers into the ground and then transfer the weight of the foundation through the piers to more competent, load-bearing soils. The Helical Pier Support System worked well for this family because the root cause of the problem was addressed and the piers provided a stress-free, permanent solution.

After the project was complete, and the foundation successfully restored to its original position, the homeowners were happy to leave a review stating how pleased they were with the quick installation and minimal disturbance done by our crew. 

Several Years of Water Damage Discovered in Saint Clair, MI Basement

Donald C. in Saint Clair, Michigan contacted HomeSpec because he discovered several years of built-up water damage in his basement, because it leaked every time it rained. Despite his efforts to prevent the water intrusion – like cleaning the gutters, extending the downspouts, covering the window wells, and correcting the grade around the foundation – it kept occurring. Donald was very worried about mold and other related problems. 

Unfortunately, these methods only help decrease the amount of water near your foundation and work to divert water away, but water can still seep inside if the basement itself is not waterproofed.

Donald wanted a long-term, permanent solution. That's why HomeSpec installed a WaterGuard Perimeter Drainage System, also known as an interior French Drain. This was connected to a powerful TripleSafe Sump Pump – it has 3 pumps for triple the protection. This system collects water from the walls and under the floor slab, and drains it into the sump pump to be expelled far away. 

Since the walls were very damaged by water, we also installed a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to not only cover-up the unsightly walls, but to prevent moisture and vapor from seeping into the basement. It is instead directed down into the drainage system.
