Carolina Basement Systems Before & After Photos

These concrete steps in King, NC were showing clear signs of settlement and damage, including sinking, uneven surfaces, and widening cracks in the brickwork. Not only did this create a trip hazard, but it also affected the home’s curb appeal and indicated unstable soil beneath the steps.

To restore safety and stability, our team used a concrete lifting and leveling solution. By injecting a specialized material beneath the slab, we filled the voids in the soil and raised the steps back to their original, even position. The result is a safer, level entryway that’s both structurally sound and visually improved.

This home in King, NC was experiencing foundation settlement around the porch area, shown through visible gaps near the downspout, soil pulling away from the brick, and sinking concrete. These symptoms are classic signs that the supporting soils have weakened over time, causing the structure above to shift and drop.

To permanently restore stability, our team installed Helical Piers, a deep-foundation solution designed to reach load-bearing soil far beneath the problem area. The crew carefully excavated the perimeter, secured hydraulic equipment, and drove each pier to the proper depth to transfer the home’s weight off the failing soil and onto stable strata.

This installation stops further sinking and provides long-term support for the porch and foundation. Thanks to this repair, the homeowner now has a safe, stabilized structure with peace of mind knowing the settlement has been professionally corrected.

Extreme water damage and begun inside this basement which was growing mold and ruining the existing carpet. In order to finish the basement, the homeowner had us waterproof it with our patented WaterGuard system which works seamlessly with the rest of the room, and we also added a vapor barrier to the exposed block wall to protect the air from increased humidity.

Random pools of water started to appear inside this basement, and the painted block was struggling to hold the paint. This water seepage was creating a moist and musty basement and needed to be waterproofed. So, we installed our interior WaterGuard drain, TripleSafe sump pump, and CleanSpace vapor barrier system.

The erosion under this front porch made it easy for the porch stairs and slab walkway to sink downhill. Since sever cracking was in its future, it was necessary to stabilize and lift the porch to keep it safe. We injected our PolyLevel foam to stabilize it and sealed the cracks with NexusPro.
