South Lebanon, OH Comprehensive Foundation Repair & Basement Waterproofing

This home in South Lebanon had its foundation settling unevenly due to soil movement and inadequate support.

To stabilize the foundation and restore their home to its former glory, we proposed a holistic solution that combined cutting-edge technology with traditional expertise. The plan included the use of helical piers, SmartJack XT supports, a supplemental beam, and joint assist brackets.

The first step was to install helical piers. These innovative devices would be driven deep into stable soil to provide a solid foundation for the house. Their unique design allowed for precise installation, ensuring uniform support across the entire structure.

Next, the team introduced SmartJack XT supports. These intelligent devices were placed strategically beneath the sagging floors. Equipped with adjustable components, SmartJack XT supports would not only lift the floors back to their original level but also offer continuous support against future settlement.

Recognizing the need for additional reinforcement, our team installed a supplemental beam along the main load-bearing wall. This beam would work in conjunction with the helical piers and SmartJack XT supports to distribute the weight of the house evenly and prevent further settling.

The final touch to this transformative process was the application of joint assist brackets. These brackets, carefully positioned at key junctures, would help minimize the impact of structural movement and ensure the integrity of the repairs over time.

With the plan in place, the team at GroundGuard Experts began their meticulous work. Despite the challenges of working within the tight crawl space, they executed each step with precision and care. The home owners watched as their home slowly but surely regained its stability, and their worries began to fade.

As the project came to an end, we conducted a final inspection to ensure that every element of the repair had been executed flawlessly. The transformation was remarkable. The floors were level, the cracks had disappeared, and the doors now closed with ease.

A South Lebanon, Ohio homeowner was insulating his basement when he noticed water seeping into the basement at the floor.  We installed WaterGuard Basement Waterproofing System along with a SuperSump Premier Sump Pump System to resolve the water problem he was having in the basement.  The WaterGuard will intercept the water that is seeping in and then it will be drained into the SuperSump and be drained out of the basement.  He will be able to continue his insulating project without further concern that the insulation would be damaged by water seepage.
