Concrete problems don’t get better with time and ignoring them don’t make them go away. But concrete problems will get better with us! That was the case for this homeowner in Ocean View, DE. She was ready to finally get her cracked, uneven and unsafe driveway lifted and leveled.   Using our PolyLEVEL, we were able to level out the driveway, making it safer for the customer and her guests. With the NexusPro Joint Sealant, we were able to protect further cracking and sinking for years to come. This customer called in later ”highly impressed with Elder and Chip's diligent work, the way he answered all of her questions respectfully, and cleaned up after himself". She then went on to say that her driveway looks so much better that her neighbors are cheering. She has not seen quality work like that in a very long time.   What a difference a day makes for a homeowner and their home!

Helical Piers are a type of steel pier that can be used to permanently stabilize your home. These can be installed from the exterior or the interior of your home and help close cracks and improve operations of doors and windows. Using these was a necessity for this homeowner in Ocean View, DE. Their chimney started cracking in several different places and was in need of some stabilization. Helical piers permanently stabilize foundations without maintenance, reach greater depths than other options, are made of galvanized steel and will not rust, and are concealed from sight.  So long chimney problems! 

Buying a new home can be a fun experience. However, when this homeowner bought their home, they noticed sticking doors and windows on the first floor. Sometimes they wondered if they would have to cut doors to prevent them from getting stuck. After an inspection report was sent, they were told DryZone could do repairs on their weak foundation. A DryZone design specialist visited the home to see what could be done to fortify the home and prevent the floors from sagging and causing sticking doors. Smart jacks were installed in the short crawl space to hold up the floors and raise them to be level again. 

This homeowner noticed some severe signs of foundation settling in their home. They knew they needed a foundation repair expert to help them protect their home. A Design Specialist at DryZone took a tour of the home and saw many signs that were not noticed by the homeowner of the foundation settling. To repair this home, DryZone installed Helical Piers underneath the footing of the home. This gives the home strong support that gently restores the foundation and keeps the home strong.

These homeowners in Ocean View, DE purchased a home that was less than two years old. Much to their surprise, the crawl space was loaded with large amounts of standing water. Unsure of what to do or how to do it, the homeowners called the experts at DryZone. Upon inspection, the DryZone team discovered the crawl space submerged in water and also noted that the door to the crawl space was not doing its job in helping keep out water.   The DryZone team got to work and removed all water and present debris. Following the removal of the water, the DryZone team fully encapsulated the crawl space using CleanSpace technology and added a HyrdoLink Drainage System, a SmartSump, and a SaniDry Sedona. In addition, the DryZone experts replaced the entrance door with an Everlast Door to ensure further preservation of the space.   The homeowners were extremely grateful for the attention to detail and hard work demonstrated by the DryZone experts and couldn't believe the crawl space was the same, all thanks to the expertise of the DryZone experts!   Helpful tip: Pairing a sump pump with a dehumidifier in a crawl space helps maintain moisture levels as well as any water that may enter.
