PROJECTS & CAPABILITIES
We provide tailored solutions to each project we work on so our customer is left with a job done right the first time. Often times, TCM Waterproofing is called out to fix what other companies worked on a few years prior! Our philosophy is to do it right once and never worry about it again. Below are a few projects from our satisfied customers.
WALL REINFORCEMENT
External soil pressure caused the foundation wall of this barn to fail. It was pushed in 6" and had a 1 1/4" separation in the corner of the barn. We straightened the wall with power braces, then installed carbon kevlar straps to stengthen the wall. It's now 3X stronger than a new wall.
The last image reminds us that women in the construction industry are valuable employees and "Can Do It!. Tom says that he would take her over four guys!

WATERPROOFING / STRUCTURAL REPAIR
This project was an older structure with years of damage to both the exterior and interior foundation walls caused by hydrostatic push and in turn water penetration. To correct this issue, a new footer was poured, power braces were installed to straighten the wall and new down spout lines were installed. These images show what it looked like with shifted blocks in many different directions and also what it looked like when we were finished.
FOUNDATION ALIGNMENT
The glazed block foundation of this home was compromised due to hydrostatic pressure. Hydrostatic pressure is pressure from a body of water at rest due to the force of gravity. The weight of the water is what causes the pressure, therefore, the higher the water table in the soil next to your foundation, the greater the pressure. The steps of this job consisted of excavation, installation of power braces and kevlar grid straps, then backfilled with gravel.

INTERIOR WATER CONTROL
This building was formerly an ice cream shop and is over 100 years old. It is an example of years of neglect. The extreme water intrusion damage created countless flooding, rotten supports, musty odors, and mildew. The renovation started with the installation of jackposts, then the Water-Control System, and finally the installation of DriShield Encapsulation.
