Foundation Support of HI Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Palolo had foundation concerns on a house that they recently purchased. We installed 35 smartjacks throughout the property as well as removing 16 previously existing wooden posts. Our smart jacks provide permanent solutions to uneven settlement! 

A spalling repair treatment we did for @lightingconcepts_hi. We started off by grinding the affected exterior area of the building to remove any loose concrete. Once the building was prepped, we applied Surtreat TPS II and TPS XII to penetrate, strengthen and protect surface. Lastly, our crew patched the spalled areas with high-strength mortar to restore surface and ensure structural intergrity. To finish off this commerical building we applied a UV-resistant primer to further protect the coating. Mahalo to the owners of Lighting Concepts, You're the best! 

A work day in Manoa Valley! We installed 7 smart jacks & 7 cast in place footing. The main concern for this project was an uneven foundation. Our smart jacks provide solid support for sagging and undersized beams as well as restoring stability to floor joists in crawl spaces. 

Haiku resident Mark S. had noticed some cracks along his home's walls and one prominent crack along his living room entryway. He made an appointment with Patrick Hooley of NorCal Foundation Support to come take a look at what could be done. 

Patrick found that there was a void under the living room’s slab foundation. This void is what was causing the cracks in the entryway floor and along the living room walls. Patrick informed Mark that we could fill this void with PolyLevel which would also lift the slab to level out the floor. Mark went ahead with Patrick’s suggested solution and is glad he did.

 The tiles that were previously unlevel are now leveled and a problem of the past. 

Iris K., a resident of Honolulu, had waterproofed her crawlspace in the past which included a french drain. However, she was still experiencing flooding. She contacted Foundation Support of Hawaii to come out and take a look. 

After her appointment with Kevin she proceeded with his suggested solutions to waterproof her home from the flooding. Iris had a WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system, a SuperSump pump system, a CleanPump Stand and WaterWatch alarm system installed in her basement. The SuperSump drains water from the WaterGuard and from below the basement floor and discharges it outside of the basement. The WaterGuard is what intercepts the water at the perimeter of the basement or crawlspace. The WaterWatch alarm system alerts the homeowner to pump or power failure before the water rises above floor level. 

Iris is glad she went with these easy to clean and maintain installations after dealing with the previously ineffective french drains. She feels good knowing her basement will be clean and dry now.
