To tackle this, we skillfully installed our magisterial combination of Carbon Armor for wall reinforcement and introduced the WaterGuard and CleanSpace systems, ensuring a perfectly dry basement.

In Bryans Road, MD, a homeowner encountered a serious foundation issue caused by soil sedimentation. Over time, the shifting soil exerted immense pressure on their foundation walls, resulting in visible cracks and structural instability [as seen in the before photo]. Concerned about the long-term safety of their home, the homeowner turned to us for a reliable and lasting solution.
To address the problem, our team implemented the PowerBrace System, a cutting-edge solution for stabilizing foundation walls. These zinc-plated steel beams are custom-measured and securely fitted against the damaged walls, providing immediate stabilization and preventing further movement. Unlike other methods, the PowerBrace System does not require invasive drilling or excavation, preserving the integrity of the home while delivering a durable, long-term fix. The system also offers the potential to gradually restore the wall to its original position over time, making it an ideal choice for homeowners facing similar challenges.

A homeowner in Glenelg, MD was concerned about uneven floors and inadequate support coming from the crawl space below. During the inspection, our team found that the existing crawl space posts were no longer providing the strength needed to properly support the floor system above. Over time, the insufficient support had allowed the floors to sag and become unstable.
NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair installed durable steel SmartJack® supports to reinforce the weakened floor system and provide dependable, adjustable support beneath the home. We also encapsulated the crawl space with a moisture-resistant vapor barrier and added insulation to help create a cleaner, drier, and more energy-efficient environment. After the repairs were completed, the floors above felt more stable and properly supported, while the newly encapsulated crawl space provided added protection from moisture, humidity, and future structural damage.
The customer became aware of sagging floors in her home and opted for a foundation repair solution. To tackle the issue of sagging floors, we installed eleven Smart Jacks and a supplemental beam in the crawlspace of the home.
