Foundation Repair Photo Album: Exterior Foundation Piers and Interior Waterproofing

This home was needing both structural piering done as well as basement waterproofing. The shallow footing allowed for exterior peirs to be installed as the basement waterproofing was being installed at the same time. This helped with the whole home rehab being performed to get this property ready for renting as soon as possible. Now the sturcture is sound and the basment dry for the renters as well as restoring the property value for future resell.

Foundation wall settling.

The rear side foundation wall is settling and the basement floor cracks were letting in so much water the sump pump was not keeping up.

Digging the exterior pier hole

This basement foundation was only half the depth of a typical full basement so hand digging an exterior pier hole because of a chain link fence was manageable.

Hand dug pier holes

If an excavator could not be used, then the pier holes are hand dug.

Exterior Pier

This pier was driven with the foundation bracket in place. The next step is to attach the pier cap and apply pressure to secure the pier to the foundation.

The re-hab plan for this home wsa to make it ready for a renter. The basement walls were going to be covered with our CleanSPACE™ product. (SEE ADDITIONAL PHOTO)

Basement Wall with CleanSPACE™

This wall covering capture moisture and water leaks that are coming in through the basement wall. The CleanSPACE™ vapor barrier is draining into the basement waterproofing system installed around the perimeter of the floor and takes all the water to the sump pump
