On April 21, 2018, Keith’s KC Waterproofing and Foundation Repair crew were in Olathe, KS. Mr. Chris Dennis had a settling garage slab that was causing his walls to sustain damage. This is considered a foundation repair because we are repairing the foundation of the garage.

To fix this issue, we first installed four piers, three along the west side of the garage, which had sustained the most settling issues, and one pier on the north side of the garage. In total, the slab had sunk two inches! Three of these piers were standard steel piers and the other one was a 250 ECP, Earth Contact Products pier. Piers are driven deep into the ground into stable soil. A plate is then affixed to the foundation and the two are attached. The weight of the foundation then rests upon the piers and gives it the stability and strength that it was previously lacking.

All in all, everything went well and the customer was satisfied. Before Keith’s crew left, they cleaned up the area, talked with the homeowner about their experience, covered any questions or concerns that they might have, and packed up their gear.

Unfortunately, we don’t have any final photos of the holes we dug for the piers being filled–the homeowner was doing it himself! We love participation! After the issue was resolved, we answered any questions the homeowner had, cleaned up the area, and packed up our equipment and crew.

We had a very positive experience with KC Waterproofing. Keith Clark and his crew and Julian Briones and his crew were knowledgeable and professional throughout the week. The project was explained to us by Camden Bales and went just as he explained. We had some issues with the amount of rock that was dug out. Camden came, and helped us and Keith decide the best solution. We were happy with the state of our yard and trees when they were finished with the piering. We want all of the men to know the were professional and used care while working in our project.

Overall great experience using KC waterproofing for my foundation piers. Team was super friendly and honest about the work. Estimated 2 days to complete, got done in 1.5 days. On time and cleaned up everything before they left.

KC waterproofing did a wonderful job with my basement waterproofing! Once that was complete, Mario comes once a year for sump pump maintenance, and he is the best. He is prompt, friendly, and great at explaining what is going on with my system and helping me understand how to keep the system working great. I wouldn’t go anywhere else to keep my basement dry and system working well!

We recently used KC Waterproofing to do our foundation, put in an IBeam and jack post, multiple piers. When I say these guys did an excellent job from start to finish… I can’t even express it enough. Very professional. Very clean work. They cleaned up so well you can’t even tell we just had major work done. This was a week and a half project. The entire crew has just been so amazing in this hard time. I will forever recommend and be using them for future projects. I don’t quite remember every one’s name but the ones I do, Cam, Kyle, Jacob, Jesse, Gerry, Connor, you all were amazing and fantastic job. Start to finish!
