Brainerd, MN Quality Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair Contractor

A homeowner in Brainerd, MN, was putting items away in their basement when they found that their wall was bowing slightly inward. Anxious about this discovery, the homeowner began looking for answers. The homeowner was searching for the best foundation repair company and came across our social media pages. After seeing our impressive work, the homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate details were finalized, Ian, one of the Design Specialists, was sent to inspect the basement. Once Ian completed the inspection, he discovered that the walls required permanent stabilization. Ian provided the homeowner with several suggested solutions that would solve their stabilization issues. After deliberation, the homeowners decided to go with one of Ian's versions. The plans were sent to the assigned crew and production preparations began. Our Foreman, Kingsley, and his crew were chosen and traveled to complete the job. Upon arrival, they began by preparing the south and east wall for the GeoLock installation. The GeoLock Wall Anchor system permanently stabilizes the foundation wall by anchoring your walls to the hard-packed untouched soil beyond your foundation. The crew installs the GeoLocks by digging a section of the ground to place the first GeoLock anchor. Once the GeoLock is in place, another anchor is attached to the interior wall. Both GeoLocks are connected by a small, steel pole direct through the ground. Once the GeoLocks are secured, the soil is put back on top of the ground. The crew cleaned up the site and left the home. The homeowner was grateful for the excellent job done by the crew. If you are experiencing a similar issue, sign up for your FREE estimate today! 

A customer from Brainerd, MN, got in contact with us when he began to notice the crawl space underneath his lake home was collected water. He knew that moisture in his crawl space could invite unwanted mold, mildew, and musty odors. When he called in, he cashed in on his FREE estimate, which entitled him to a thorough inspection of the issue by one of our Design Specialists. Our Fargo-based Design Specialist, Richie, headed out to the property to complete his inspection. Once finished, he was able to make a few recommendations as to how our customer could fix the issue. First, he recommended that we use our CleanSpace vapor barrier for crawl spaces. Richie explained that this solution would consist of our crew wrapping the crawl space in the tarp-like material. He went on to say that, when completed, this barrier would act to keep moisture out and keep the space energy efficient. Next, Richie recommended the placement of a crawl space drain, the ideal way to drain water in a dirt crawl space without clogging or drain failure. This drain would attach to a sump pump or other drainage line, keeping the water out of the space. Finally, Richie recommended the job be finished with our Spray Foam, a sprayable foam used to seal any remaining holes or points of entry for unwanted moisture. 

Our customer agreed and work began shortly after. One of our Foreman from Fargo, Zach, and his crew were able to complete the installations swiftly. The crew ended up installing 1466 sqft of our CleanSpace both on the walls and wrapped around the piers of the space, they installed another 116 sqft of Spray Foam and placed two smart drains throughout the space.

When the job had been completed, our customer was relieved to know that he could go back to enjoying his summer lake home with no worries when rain is in the forecast.
