Crack Stitching with Epoxy
Jean & Steve
May 26, 2023 |
Hendersonville,
NC
BRS Pros helped Jean & Steve by installing crack stitching. Patented Re-Grid technology, the carbon fiber/KevlarĀ® stitches embed in a structural epoxy and bond to the substrate through a process called Adhesive Riveting Technology. It has been both lab and real-world tested to be stronger and more reliable than any other crack repair methods. Perpendicular saw cuts vary from 12″ to 16″ on center to crack being repaired, the cracks were cleaned of debris. High strength epoxy was then inserted into crack and to the open grid stitch and placed into the saw cut. The Crack Stitch is made in the USA though a proprietary process that minimizes costs and reliance on third party suppliers. This allows us to keep our cost to you at half of what competitive products cost. It was a pleasure helping Jean & Steve make their home happy, healthy, & safe!

Concrete Lift and Void Fill of the driveway slab.
Sherry M.
May 26, 2023 |
Pisgah Forest,
NC
BRS Pros helped Sherry by lifting and void filled her sunken driveway slab. The process that Basement & Radon Solutions uses to return your concrete slabs back to the way they are supposed to be is polyurethane foam concrete raising. This process involves the following steps: Drilling holes in strategic spots on your slab– holes are drilled in the affected areas of the concrete slabs, usually in a regular pattern and spacing to allow for even pumping of concrete raising material underneath. Polyurethane foam is pumped in– with the holes in your slab, polyurethane foam is pumped in with the use of a high-pressure injection gun. The material instantaneously expands and fills the voids underneath the slab and in the soil, raising the concrete to its original level. This material also helps stabilize the soil underneath by filling in the gaps and compressing loose areas. Cost Effective – Concrete raising is typically half the cost of replacing the same concrete. Ultimately, the cost of raising or stabilizing concrete is a direct reflection of how much leveling material the project will require. Quick-Cure Time – Polyurethane typically cures 15 minutes after injection allowing areas to be fully available in minutes instead of days. Clean Work Environment – No concrete or grout spatter and no wash-down needed. Small Holes – Polyurethane concrete raising creates nearly invisible 5/8″ holes with minimal patchwork required. Lightweight – Weighing only 2-4lbs per cubic foot, high density polyurethane’s lightweight characteristics will not overburden the soil. Green!– The poly foams we use are environmentally friendly, consisting of 39-49% renewable and recycled materials that are made in the USA. Most poly raw materials are petroleum-based. Our green polyurethane Biobased materials are not only good for the environment, but actually enhance the foam properties. It was a pleasure helping Sherry make her home happy, healthy, & safe!

Encapsulated crawlspace with vapor barrier and dehumidifier.
James S.
May 18, 2023 |
Hendersonville,
NC
BRS Pros helped James and here are some steps we took… Mold Remediation – Phase I of this work consists of cleaning the crawl space sub-floor of wood decaying fungi and organic growth. After cleaning, Phase 2 consists of fogging the crawl space. Phase 2 will kill 99.9% of mold spores and will inhibit the growth of mold and mildew. Decay and organic growth was treated and cleaned. Spray Foam – Class A fire rated polyurethane closed cell spray foam insulation was sprayed on the rim joists and sill plates. It prevents air infiltration (unlike fiberglass insulation) and insulates the wood band plates (rim joists) above the masonry foundation wall. Closed cell foam insulation (moisture and air will not penetrate this product) will fill and seal cracks, cavities and joints. Fiberglass insulation will not perform to prevent air infiltration. This product application will reduce cold spots in the floor adjacent to the main level walls. Foundation Vents – Foundation vents were completely sealed with poly-foam insulation from the interior of the crawlspace preventing exterior air and moisture into the crawl space. Hydra Channel – A clean trench was dug adjacent to the foundation footing along the four interior perimeter foundation walls according to the manufacture’s instructions adjacent to the footing. The Hydra-Channel engineered fusion welded high strength polyethylene water system will remove storm water up to 70% faster than a pipe and stone system. It will allow water to flow freely to the in-ground sealed sump pump/basin located in the right front interior of the crawl space. The Hydra-Channel system carries a five year transferable warranty to prevent water on top of the ground liner. Sump Pump – Installed our “Single Pump System” with a removable (flush with floor) lid covered with stone in right front corner of crawl space (as looking at the front door). The system includes 1/3 HP cast iron primary pump with dual float cage that protects debris from the float. Included is deluxe controller that monitors pump and power conditions and will sound an alarm if problems are detected or a high water warning in the sump. Additionally, it activates the pump weekly to exercise and extend the pumps life. Blanket Insulation – Installed fiberglass blanket insulation with white vapor barrier to interior perimeter foundation walls. Insulation is 4″ thick which offers an R-13 insulation factor (code compliant for new construction). Insulation was hung approximately 6″ from the top of the interior masonry foundation wall to provide a termite inspection and will cover the wall to approximately 4″ off the ground. Wall Liner 9 Mil – Installed our 9-mil white 100% woven reinforced wall liner over the blanket insulation. Wall liner was mechanically fastened with nails designed for foundation walls to within 6″ of the top of the crawl space foundation wall to provide a complete future termite inspection unless indicated elsewhere. Mechanically fastening wall liner is a permanent solution opposed to just caulk or tape which will result in future maintenance or failure of the system. Ground Liner – 15 Mil – Radon Ready – Installed our Premium (walk on, store on) 15-mil white 100% woven reinforced radon ready crawl space system. The liner was mechanically fastened with nails designed for foundation walls to provide a permanent fastening system. (Caulking or taping liner to foundation walls is a temporary system and will become a maintenance issue.) The premium ground liner was nailed/sealed approximately 6″ to 12″ above the earth in the crawl space to the foundation wall. A radon piping system was installed below the ground liner, the piping system will be used in the future when the home is tested for radon gas and requires a complete radon system. 15-mil woven ground liner will control moisture vapor and dampness from the ground. Most crawlspace liners are partially reinforced, our woven liner is 100% reinforced and tough unlike competitive brand liners that are only 10% reinforced. This product will not off gas (known on Google as “crawlspace cat urine odor”, go ahead and check it out), we guarantee it!! Our woven ground and wall liners are antibacterial, meaning mold and other organic growth will not grow to the liner. Dehumidifier – Aprilaire has been the industry leader in residential humidification control since 1954. The Aprilaire Model E100 “Energy Star” rated dehumidifier delivers 23% annual energy savings above conventional products, a high-capacity solution designed for humidity control in crawl spaces and basements.

May 2, 2023 |
Hendersonville,
NC
BRS Pros helped Jean & Steve by installing Fortress Carbon Fiber Straps. Fortress carbon fiber/Kevlar unidirectional straps with top rim joist plates and bottom anchor footer assemblies were installed vertically at four foot centers. The foundation wall was scarified and cleaned smooth where the straps are located on the wall. The carbon fiber/kevlar top brackets are secured/bolted to the rim joists. Then the steel dual leg bottom anchors are drilled and epoxied to the floor to prevent wall shear making it 125 times stiffer than the competition. This makes the bottom plate anchors the best in the industry. High strength epoxy was then applied to the wall and straps to create a life of the structure warranty. Straps may be painted in the future for aesthetic purposes.

This is where the radon fan is installed. The radon fan vent pipe from the fan was then extended to just above the roofline to expel the gas safely. Varmint and rain guard PVC exhaust caps are installed on all Basement & Radon Solutions exterior radon systems that prevent rain, debris, small animals and birds from entering the vent pipe, guarding and extending the life of your radon system. If desired the exterior system can be painted in the future for added aesthetics. This 4″ piping system will reduce radon levels in the home up to 33% opposed to using a 3″ suction line line. We also installed a Radon System Alarm. Radon System Alarms are now required on all new residential radon systems. This unit is a vacuum monitoring device utilizing piezo resistive pressure sensor (PPS) technology. This alarm will provide an audible and visual indication to alert the homeowner when the radon system is not moving sufficient air in the event of a power loss to the system. Lastly, we preformed a post radon test that came back at 2.1 pCi/l! It was a pleasure helping Leigh make her new home happy, healthy, & safe again!

BRS Pros helped James by installing a Baseboard Dewatering System. We installed our warranted Baseboard dewatering system complete as estimated along part of the left, rear and part of the right side of the basement. The floor where the system is installed was ground to clean concrete to get rid of oils, sealers, etc. The baseboard system was epoxied to the floor. The wall was covered with a 15-mil liner, secured, fastened and sealed to the baseboard system to control moisture and direct water to the baseboard system. The baseboard system is connected to a sump pump – Pro-Series PS-C33 Combination Backup and Primary Pump was installed in right rear corner of the basement (as looking at the front door). • Automatically switches to battery power when AC fails • Unique monitoring controller detects irregularities, sounds an alarm, and pinpoints problems and solutions on control panel • Primary pump with energy efficient PSC motor is continuous duty rated and water cooled • Primary pump controller allows for adjustable pump run time and exercises pump weekly to extend pump life • Dual float switches provide dependable activation for both primary and backup pumps • Backup will assist primary pump if excessive amounts of water are entering the sump • Maintains and recharges battery automatically • Alarm can be silenced during a power outage • Designed for use with wet cell or AGM / maintenance free batteries • USB Data Port and Remote Terminals connect to external devices such as a PHCC Pro Series CONNECT Module, home automation systems or other devices for remote notification. It was a pleasure helping James make his home happy, healthy, & safe again!

Basement & Radon Solutions installed a Sub-Slab Exterior radon mitigation system in for Ingo. The radon suction line proposed was installed in the right end of the basement slab. After diagnostics for system performance, a 5″ diameter hole was drilled through the concrete slab to the earth below. This is where a suction pit was then created. A 4″ schedule 40 PVC suction line was installed in the slab, sealed and then extended to the right exterior of the home. The radon fan was mounted on the right exterior of the home. The radon vent pipe was then extended above the roofline to help expel the radon gas safely. The manometer gauge (homeowner radon fan monitoring vacuum gauge) was installed on the suction line pipe in the basement for easy viewing. We also added a Radon System Alarm. Radon System Alarms are now required on all new residential radon systems. This unit is a vacuum monitoring device utilizing piezo resistive pressure sensor (PPS) technology. This alarm will provide an audible and visual indication to alert the homeowner when the radon system is not moving sufficient air in the event of a power loss to the system. Lastly, we preformed a post radon test that came back at 2.8 pCi/l! It was a pleasure helping Ingo make his home happy, healthy, & safe!
