Lynden, WA Professional Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair

Jeri-Lynn is a property owned for a building in Lynden. Some pipes in the building had recently burst and they were able to get that fixed, but there was still leftover water in the crawl space. Unsure of the next steps, they contacted Rainy Day as a referral from a friend conduct an inspection and estimate. The water under the building was causing mold, groundwater seepage, pests, and wood rot. We found the best solution to correct her water problem would be by installing drainage trenches and a waterproofing using a sump pump system and dehumidifier.

Water in a crawl space can be the root cause of other more serious issues. As always, we provide you free inspections and estimates just one call away. To schedule, call 360-435-6992

A homeowner in Lynden contacted us because the rear of her home faces a ravine and she noticed that part of her home had begun to settle. The home was built on a floating foundation and one corner had settled approximately three and half inches causing walls inside the home to fracture and crumble. Having purchased the home new only four years prior, the homeowner wanted a permanent solution to the problem so she could enjoy living there for years to come.

To stabilize the foundation, we installed 16 push piers to the back of the home where the settling occurred. We install the push piers by first securing a bracket against the existing footing. Pier sections are then driven hydraulically through the foundation bracket into the soil below. Pier sections are driven continuously until a suitable load bearing stratum is encountered. The weight of the home can then be transferred through the piers to the bedrock for stabilization. What is great about our push piers is that they are adjustable, and in addition to stabilizing, they can lift a settling foundation back to its original position.
