Crawl Space Repair Indiana
Crawl Space Repair Indiana A-1 Indiana Waterproofingprovides expertcrawl space repair servicesin the Indiana area. There are several things that destroy organic materials in general, and wood in particular:wateris perhaps the most common cause of organic material decay. Water vapor moves easily into acrawl spaceand upwards into a living space environment. Adamp environment below gradecan be very unhealthy and destructive.Moldthrives and reproduces by producing airborne spores by the millions, and some molds are toxic. Insects and critters of all kinds love damp environments and wet materials. Rot and decay occur in damp environments causingstructural damage. Mold spores,odors,humidityandcritterscreate a very unhealthy environment for people. Many people are allergic to these things, and experience a host of symptoms and don̢۪t realize that theirdirt crawl spaceis affecting their health. Dirt crawl spacesdo not have to be wet or flooded to be extremely unhealthy. Below is a photo of what NOT to do to your Crawl Space. In just the past few years "crawl space encapsulation" has become a cottage industry onto itself. At A-1 Indiana waterproofing we TOTALLY disagree that closing or encapsulating a crawl is beneficial or safe. By "encapsulating" the WALLS of a crawl space, moisture is trapped and does not allow the natural air flow to and from thefoundation walls. What do you think happens to the foundations integrity over time when moisture is trapped - that is right, mold, bugs and other deterioration occurs. DO NOT believe today's fad of spending $1000's of dollars only to learn a few years later you created another problem - in our belief a crawl space needs air flow, period. When a home is built there is a reason why architects and builders allow for air movement, it is simple logic. We have a state of the art crawl space treatment system that provides moisture reduction by utilizing a vapor barrier only on the floor and walls and then providing a dense foam insulation to the wall areas. Insulating your crawl space with our patentedcrawl spaceinsulationsystem is a mold and pest deterrent and pays for itself by saving you money on utilities. In addition, our E-Z Breathe air filtration system allows air to be sanitized creating clean, fresh air flow for your living space above. Our system addresses all the concerns an open crawl might encounter and yet provides both clean air and a dry environment.

Foundation Repair Indiana
Foundation Repair Indiana A home is usually the biggest investment a person or family makes - not to mention the value of the possessions contained within it. A cave-in can cause irreparable damage to the house and contents making it important to secure, stabilize and correct deteriorating basement walls -- before it's too late. Bowed, cracked or leaning basement walls are a sign that something is going very wrong with the structural integrity of your property. This issue happens when hydrostatic pressure from too much water building up against the walls, or the soil that is around your property swells and exerts pressure that forces the foundation wall inward. Until now, homeowners had few choices for repairing foundation walls, except to excavate around the wall and build a new basement wall. This solution is expensive, time consuming, and destructive to landscaping. Not only that , the problem can recur if the wall is not properly rebuilt or if steps are not taken to correct the causes of the initial deterioration. A-1 Indiana's Wall Anchor System Is the Solution! The Grip-Tite® Wall Anchor System utilizes proven engineering methods to secure and stabilize deteriorating basement walls. What's more, the system works on any kind of basement wall - concrete block, clay block, poured concrete, timber, or stone. The system consists of an interior wall plate, an exterior soil anchor and a connecting steel rod to stabilize foundation walls by counteracting pressure exerted against the wall. The system is a property owner's alternative to completely removing and rebuilding basement walls that have become cracked, leaning or bowed as a result of pressures exceeding the allowable design capacity of the wall. The Grip-Tite® Wall Anchor's are spaced in different locations along a wall and rod extenders can be used to avoid decks, flowerbeds and other landscaping. Installing The Grip-Tite® Wall Anchor System usually takes less than one day, and the technicians will leave your home and lawn as it was before the installation. Anchors are placed in specific locations along the wall, and rod extenders can be added to avoid all decking, cement work, flower beds, and other landscaping. And because the system works with the wall and ground, structural changes to your house are unnecessary. Whether the cracking or bowing is caused by hydrostatic pressure, expansive soil or another problem, don't risk the investment in your home by failing to address the issue. Benefits: Minimal excavation or disturbance to property, lawn or landscaping. Installed in a day or less. No wait – can be installed year-round. Easily installed in areas with decks, landscaping or flowerbeds. Cost-effective – less cost than re-building foundation wall(s). Do you have: Doors&windows that stick Cracks in the floor or tile Torn or wrinkled wallpaper Cracks in the foundation Cracks in the bricks Chimneys that are titling or leaning At A-1 Indiana Waterproofing & Foundation Repair, our proven engineered steel piering system and provides structural support forsinkingorsettling foundations.
