Concrete slabs can sink into homes and cause water to collect. On this front porch, the slab sank and water collected against the wooden door frame. After a couple of storms, the wood started to turn dark and microbial growth started forming. DryZone lifted and leveled the concrete porch and sealed the seams to protect the wood behind it. 

This homeowner had made the purchase of her home earlier this year. After living in the home for a little bit, she noticed that her floors were uneven and unlevel and that some of her sliding glass doors were unable to be opened. After getting a different company to look at it, they discovered that the foundation of the home was sinking! That company offered a solution, that was way over her budget and included a lot more than what needed to be done. That is when DryZone stepped in.
