Bonaire, GA Advanced Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair

A homeowner living in Boniare, GA had moisture problems below their home. Looking to have the space protected from outside moisture, the homeowner searched for a remedy online and soon found us at LowCountry Foundation Repair. After calling to receive their free estimate, the homeowner was soon met by our sales representative who talked with them about their options. After hiring us, our installation crew arrived at the home and they started on a vapor barrier by laying drainage matting across the floor of the space. This mat has many holes throughout it, as well as a design that allows open channels to form between the ground and the mat. This allows any water blocked by the completed vapor barrier to flow down to the floor and drain away through the shortest path. To finish the installation, a CleanSpace liner was utilized to encapsulate the interior of the crawlspace. This thin white sheet will now lock out any outside moisture that might have otherwise leaked into the space. This will soon eliminate any musty smell that had been coming from the crawlspace as well as protecting the homeowner from typically unseen problems such as mold growth. Now this homeowner can rest assured their crawlspace will remain moisture free. Their new vapor barrier will keep this space completely water-free for many years to come!

Richard B from Bonaire, Ga noticed that he had settling slab in the garage and cracking on the interior walls of the home. He called Lowcountry Foundation Repair for a free inspection to see if his problem could be resolved.

The inspector noticed the cracking and leaning walls on the inside of the home and the settling slab. They recommended our piering system to relevel and support the foundation.

Richard decided to go through with that recommendation and a production team came and installed the piering system. The foundation became releveled and the cracks were sealed. Richard was very happy with the final results.

Keith S. of Bonaire, GA had a problem in his bathroom. The floor was sinking near the shower and toilet. Keith didn't want his floor to cave in on him so he went online to find a solution. In his search, he found Lowcountry Basement Systems and discovered that they could fix his foundation problem.

Keith scheduled a free inspection. The inspector noted the lack of support under the subfloor, directly below the bathroom floor. He recommended installing a SmartJack System to stabilize and lift the floor. SmartJacks are crawl space columns capable of supporting 60,000 pounds each. They are also coated in galvanized steel to prevent rust.

Keith liked the strategy and decided to move forward with the project. After everything was approved, the project was scheduled and the Lowcountry Basement Systems team fixed the sinking floor in two days. Keith was thrilled that he no longer had to worry about falling through the floor in the bathroom.

George P. of Bonaire, GA had a pool in his backyard. Over time, he noticed the concrete pool deck began to sink. The sinking created tripping hazards and George did not want his grandchildren, or their friends, to hurt themselves while playing around the pool.

Lowcountry Basement Systems fixed George’s problem by lifting the sunken concrete using a product called PolyLevel. PolyLevel is a waterproof, structural grade polymer that can lift pool decks, driveways, porches and sidewalks. The pool deck project took just a few hours, and within 15 minutes the PolyLevel cured and was safe for George’s family once more.

George was thrilled. The process was simple, easy and he didn’t have to tear out any concrete.

Mark G. of Bonaire, GA called Lowcountry Basement Systems with a problem. His 12-foot long front porch sank and cracked. The drop was over an inch in one area and Mark wanted to fix it before it worsened. One evening he saw an ad on Macon’s NBC 41 for free concrete repair inspections and called Lowcountry Basement Systems the next day.

An inspector from Lowcountry Basement Systems visited the home and recommended a custom solution to stabilize the porch. This below-grade solution was slab piers, made of galvanized steel to prevent rust and are completely hidden from sight once installed. PolyLevel, would then be used to fill the voids from the slab piers; a structural grade polymer that quickly expands. In less than two days, Mark’s slab was lifted and supported and looked brand new! He was so thrilled with the results that he even wrote a raving Google review! “I always look for quality work. It is essential with me. I found this company to be just that professional, great customer service and 5 star work.” Thanks Mark!

Jason P. of Bonaire, GA had a problem in his backyard. One side of his pool deck had settled at an angle that created a tripping hazard for his children that loved to run around the pool. Jason didn’t want his family getting hurt, so he looked for a company that could fix it with mudjacking. However, during his research he discovered a much better alternative by Lowcountry Basement Systems: PolyLevel.

PolyLevel lifts and stabilizes sinking concrete slabs. It is a high-density, lightweight polyurethane formula. Instead of the expensive and messy “mud” mixture of sand, water and cement that takes days to cure, PolyLevel only takes 15 minutes to cure. Unlike mudjacking which can take one-to-two days to install, PolyLevel is injected under sinking slabs through dime-sized holes. This sounded like a great option to Jason, who opted to have PolyLevel installed under his concrete.

Lowcountry Basement Systems repaired Jason’s pool deck in less than a day and the tripping hazard was removed. It was finally safe for his kids to run and play around the pool once again. Jason was thrilled!

Clint G. of Bonaire, GA had a water intrusion problem in his crawl space. He went online to learn more about mold, mold spores and how to prevent mold growth in crawl spaces. During his search, Clint came across Lowcountry Basement Systems’ website where he learned about our Complete CleanSpace Encapsulation System that removes moisture and prevents mold growth.

Clint decided to encapsulate his crawl space and fix the problem. Lowcountry Basement Systems installed CleanSpace Liner over the ground, around the piers and foundation walls to seal out moisture. A SaniDry CX dehumidifier was installed to collected moisture from the air. A TripleSafe Sump Pump collected the water and pumped it away from the house. The foundation walls were insulated with EverLast Panels. The vents were sealed with CleanSpace Vent Covers and the crawl space door was replaced with an EverLast CrawlSpace Door. No moisture means no mold.

The project took four days to complete and Clint no longer worried about mold growing in his crawl space.

Richard and Michelle C. of Bonaire, GA built a new home in 2000, 16 years later they decided to sell it and move closer to their children. After listing the house, potential buyers noticed a crack in the foundation wall. Not one offer was made after four months. Richard and Michelle decided the only way the house would sell, was if they fixed their foundation problem.

Michelle called Lowcountry Foundation Repair and scheduled an appointment with an inspector from Lowcountry. The inspector recommended stabilizing the foundation using helical piers. Once the house was stabilized, it provided them an opportunity to lift the foundation wall back into place, closing crack

After the project was completed, Richard and Michelle had no trouble selling their home. In fact, Lowcountry Foundation Repair’s 25-year warranty on the helical piers was an added bonus for the new homeowners.  

Keith S. of Bonaire, GA had lived in his home for four years before his floors started to sag. He was unsure of what to do. After seeing an ad in a local newspaper for Lowcountry Basement Systems, he decided to call and learn more about his foundation problem. 

Lowcountry Basement Systems sent Kris Evans to do a full inspection of Keith’s crawl space. Kris examined the home, inside and out and suggested that Keith have eight SmartJacks® installed to support his weakened subfloor. The project took one day to complete, and Keith saw immediate results.
