It's a common issue many homeowners face, especially bringing with it concerns about property damage and the health implications of mold. Understanding these challenges, the homeowner reached out to us for a reliable and long-term solution. Upon contacting our customer care team, we quickly scheduled an in-depth home inspection. Our System Design Specialist visited the home, utilizing their expertise to identify the core issues. Based on their observations, they recommended installing our UltraSump System along with IceGuard to effectively manage and preempt water intrusion.

Recently, a homeowner in the charming town of Herndon, VA, encountered an unsettling discovery shortly after settling into their new residence. During a routine inspection, they uncovered large, ominous vertical cracks sprawling across the foundation walls of their home. Heeding the advice of their diligent inspector, the homeowners sought the expertise of a professional to assess and address this alarming issue. This led them to the renowned services of NV Waterproofing and Foundation Repair.

Upon contacting us, we dispatched our esteemed technical advisor, Brian Bui, to undertake a comprehensive evaluation of the property. Brian, known for his meticulous attention to detail and vast experience in foundation repair, conducted a thorough inspection. His findings confirmed the homeowners' fears: the cracks were not only significant but posed a serious threat to the structural integrity of the home if left unattended. The situation demanded immediate action to prevent any potential exacerbation that could lead to major damage in the future. Understanding the gravity of the situation, our team proposed a robust solution tailored to fortify the home's foundation effectively.

The cornerstone of our approach involved the installation of five push piers. These devices are specifically designed for use in stabilizing heavier structures. They operate by utilizing the weight of the home itself to exert pressure downwards, gently pushing the foundation back into its original, correct position. This innovative technique offers a formidable solution to counteract the unsettling effects of foundation settlement. In addition to addressing the underlying issue of foundation displacement, our specialists turned their attention to the visible cracks marring the foundation walls. With precision and care, they embarked on a meticulous process of cleaning each crack, preparing them for the application of a high-grade polyurethane solution. This specialized sealant was carefully injected into the cracks, filling them completely to form a resilient barrier against water infiltration and further structural compromise. The homeowner watched as our team transformed their initial concern into a comprehensive restoration of their home's foundation integrity. Their satisfaction with the process and the final results was palpable. They expressed immense relief and gratitude, comforted by the knowledge that their home was now supported by a solid, secure foundation. The peace of mind that comes from knowing your home is safe and sound is invaluable, and we were proud to provide that reassurance. This project stands as a testament to the importance of prompt, professional intervention when facing foundation issues. At NV Waterproofing and Foundation Repair, we're committed to delivering solutions that not only address the immediate concerns but also ensure long-term stability and security for your home. The homeowner in Herndon, VA, can now enjoy their dwelling to the fullest, confident in the enduring strength of their foundation.
