Tri-State Waterproofing has been in the Foundation Repair industry in Gainesville, GA for over 20 years. Our expert-level inspectors and crews know how to identify your foundation issue and apply the best foundation solution. We have the solution to any settlement crack, bowed wall, and even stuck doors and windows.
Have you ever noticed a crack in your sheetrock or a crack in your foundation slab? Well, these are tale tell signs of foundation settlement! We use our foundation lift piers to lift up your foundation back into place. This foundation repair comes with a transferable lifetime warranty of permanent stabilization.
Carbon Fiber Straps are an extremely effective method used for foundation repair. They are used to repair bowed, buckled, or cracked walls. These straps are 8-10 times more stretch resistant than steel and are designed to strengthen and stabilize foundation walls. The advantages to installing carbon fiber straps are that the homeowner loses no area within the home, requires no maintenance, and has a one to two-day installation process. This foundation repair method comes with a lifetime warranty.
Soldier Beams are often used when there is a lack of exterior access necessary for a Tie-Back system. The solder beam is bolted to the footing and floor system which guarantees the wall to be stabilized in place. Depending on the severity of the damaged foundation wall the solder beam can be designed to strengthen the wall over time. The advantages to using solder beams are that the outside of the home is not disrupted and comes with a transferable lifetime warranty.
Helical Piers are often used when a home is built on fill dirt. The helical pier is fabricated out of steel and then galvanized to prevent corrosion. The helical piles are driven into the ground with a drive shaft until load bearing soil is reached. Once load bearing soil is reached the bracket head is bolted to the footing. Your home is now stabilized and can be lifted into its original place.
Tie-Back Systems are used to permanently stabilize and straighten a bowed or cracked foundation wall. A Tie-Back System has the capability to pull the wall back into place. This requires exterior excavation to relieve the wall of hydrostatic pressure. A steel rod is driven through the wall and then plated on each end. We then tighten the interior bolt to strengthen the wall. This method is used for more of the severe foundation repairs we run across.
Homeowners often call when their foundation issue is past due for repair. In this case, a wall replacement is their only option left. Our foundation repair specialist starts by temporarily supporting the floor system and then begins excavating the damaged area.
The wall is built back in place and applied with our waterproofing membrane and drainage board. This is usually the worst-case scenario for any homeowner. We recommend you call Tri-State Waterproofing before this is your only option left.
