Gordon and his wife live in a one story home that was built in the 1800's, with limestone walls, and a basement. He had an issue with a growing gap at the top of an exterior wall on his home. He had been filling it in with foam, but it kept opening up. It was visible where the wall had shifted in and left a gap between the sill plate and top of the wall. Gordon and his wife traveled often for long periods of time and they were concerned they might come back to a garden in the basement or that the house would fall down if they didn't do something about this problem soon. Gordon contacted Thrasher when he noticed the void at the top of the exterior wall was getting bigger and they were worried they wouldn't have a home to come home too. They chose Thrasher because of our expertise, professionalism and warranties.
During my inspection of the home, I found the north wall of the house in the basement was very unstable. The homeowner had removed some of the paneling from the wall, and had to stop when he discovered the paneling was basically holding the loose limestone foundation back. The customer was made aware of how urgently the wall needed to be repaired and how its condition had become a severe wall problem. I explained what could happen and the cost associated with waiting, and that fixing it now, the right way was there best option. The homeowners agreed completely!
