Comprehensive Foundation Repair Services
At AMC911, we offer a wide range of services to address every aspect of foundation and crawl space repair. Our services include:
Foundation Repair
- Foundation Leveling: We assess and correct any unevenness or instability in your building’s foundation using techniques such as hydraulic jacks or underpinning with piers to ensure the structure is level and secure.
- Foundation Crack Repair: Our team identifies, assesses, and fixes cracks in your property’s foundation using methods like injecting epoxy or polyurethane foam to restore structural integrity and prevent further damage.
- Epoxy Injection Crack Repair: This method uses high-strength epoxy resin to seal cracks and restore the structural integrity of concrete, essential for repairing damaged foundations, walls, and other concrete elements.
- Push Pier Installation: Steel push piers are driven deep into the ground to a stable soil layer or bedrock, providing support and stabilization to prevent further foundation settlement or movement.
- Helical Pier Installation: Helical piers are screwed into the ground to provide support for various structures. This quick installation causes minimal disturbance and is ideal for stabilizing foundations in various soil conditions.
- Foundation Inspections: We conduct thorough examinations of your building’s foundation to assess structural integrity, identify signs of damage or wear, and recommend necessary repairs or maintenance.
Waterproofing Solutions
- Interior and Exterior Waterproofing: We apply comprehensive solutions to protect your property from water damage by sealing basements, crawl spaces, and foundations, ensuring your property remains dry and secure.
- Crawl Space Waterproofing: We protect your crawl space from moisture and water intrusion by installing vapor barriers, insulation, drainage systems, and sump pumps to prevent mold, mildew, and structural damage.
- Crawl Space Dehumidifiers: Dehumidifiers reduce moisture levels in crawl spaces, preventing mold growth, wood rot, and other issues, helping maintain a dry environment and improving indoor air quality.
- Sump Pumps: Sump pumps prevent flooding and water damage by pumping water away from your property. They can be powered by electricity or a backup battery system, providing peace of mind during heavy rainfall or power outages. Regular maintenance ensures reliability and efficiency.
- Drain Tile: Trench drains filled with gravel or rock containing a perforated pipe redirect surface and groundwater away from an area, preventing flooding, managing water runoff, and reducing moisture in basements and crawl spaces.
Crawl Space Repair
- Crawl Space Encapsulation: Encapsulation involves sealing the crawl space with a vapor barrier to prevent moisture, mold, and pests, improving air quality, energy efficiency, and overall home durability.
- Crawl Space Jacks: Adjustable steel jacks provide additional stability and support, preventing sagging floors and structural damage by evenly distributing weight and reinforcing the home’s foundation.
- Sagging Floor Repair: We correct uneven or sinking floors by reinforcing underlying structures, such as joists or beams, and adding support to restore floors to a level and stable condition.
Additional Services
- Chimney Repair: We inspect chimneys for damage, repair cracks or structural issues, and ensure they are safe and functional.
- Brick Restoration: We clean, repair, and rejuvenate old or damaged brickwork to preserve structural integrity and aesthetic appeal. This includes repointing mortar joints, replacing damaged bricks, and applying protective treatments to enhance durability and appearance.
