Foundation Repair Results in Higher Resale Value in Overland Park Home.

In this job overview, we will be discussing a project out in Overland Park, KS. Fernandos crew went out to Overland Park on May 23, 2018, for a job that included foundation repair involving helical tiebacks and crack repair. Every foundation repair job is different, and this one was not to straighten out the foundation walls at all but to stabilize the walls. Foundation repair is necessary because it can create problems with stability and safety in the home. It will also make your home difficult or impossible to sell in the future if you choose to do so.

Over the course of this job, Fernando and his crew installed five helical tiebacks on the north foundation wall. The wall was pushing inwards and needed to be stabilized. However, it did not need to be straightened as in most foundation repair cases. We installed the helical tiebacks and then added topsoil on top of the dirt from the tiebacks. We also added some around the sides of the home for the slope. This is helpful for waterproofing purposes. When water drains directly into the foundation because it has nowhere to go, the soil around the foundation becomes saturated and pushes against the walls. This can cause cracks and eventually bowing and leaning. Proper slope/grade is important for your home’s health.

After we completed the job, we cleaned up the minimal mess. Then we talked with the customer about their experience and asked if they had any questions and if any follow-up was needed. We want to make sure that your home is safe and stable for you. If you’re having foundation problems, give KC Waterproofing and Foundation Repair a call.

Mario was on time,efficient and did a great job!

We needed waterproofing around the entire basement as well as removal of concrete stairs, epoxy crack injection, and wall reinforcement. Everyone we worked with from beginning to end was great, and they were flexible with our schedule. The entire crew was very professional and talked us through each step of the repairs and improvements. They were done with all of the work in 4 days! We would highly recommend them and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again if we have any future foundation needs.

Skylar and his team did excellent work. They arrived on time first thing in the morning and immediately put my mind at ease. Originally thought it would be a two day job, but they wrapped up the work before 3 on day one. Everything about the experience was top notch. From the original estimator Riley to the work itself. Would happily recommend to friends and family.

We did not go with KC Waterproofing...Why? Because of the integrity and honesty of the salesman Jeff Wolfe. The first question Jeff asked was what would be our deciding factors, and we said the contractor's reputation for quality & honesty and the ability to assess the situation and present a proven & cost-effective solution. Jeff could have proposed solutions similar to other contractors, but he gave us his HONEST recommendation that our foundation issues don't necessitate corrective action at this point and he told us what to watch for if the issues getting worse. Jeff and KC Waterproofing will be our first call if the problem gets worse, and the contractor we recommend to friends and neighbors.

Had an initial consultation with Camden. He was upfront, professional, honest, and very knowledgeable. We haven’t yet made a decision as to next steps, but our experience with the consult was top-notch.
