The sudden appearance of cracks can be a very unsettling sight to most homeowners. These Boise homeowners, upon noticing these cracks appear, had the original builder try to patch the cracks. Unfortunately, the builders solution was less than optimal and didn't solve the problem. To completely solve the homeowners problem, Foundation Supportworks was called.
Our solution was simple and would entirely solve the the homeowner's frustrating foundations cracks for good. We installed our CarbonArmor product to not only seal the crack, but also provide support to the wall. The homeowners were relieved and happy to finally have a permanent solution to foundation cracks!

We have the skills and expertise to fix any wet basement, and we use our patented basement waterproofing system to fix any and all water problems once and for all. One of the more popular repair methods we have used in many other Pittsburgh homes is the installation of an interior French drainage system using our WaterGuard® Below-Floor Drain. Our French drainage system works by pumping out any water that enters your basement away using a sump pump before it can ever cause any damage.

The crawl space plays a pivotal role in your home, and since it is not used nearly as often as other areas, it's hard to know when it needs repairs. Most homeowners aren't aware of most crawl space issues, but there are distinct symptoms to be aware of such as cracked drywall in the home, uneven floors, various foul odors, and increased allergy and asthma symptoms. Foundation Supportworks of Idaho uses proven solutions such as our Vapor Barrier crawl space encapsulation system to keep the crawl space dry and also the SmartJack™ stabilizer to fix and prevent sagging floor joists and beams. All crawl space encapsulation systems we install include a written 25-year warranty! Get a FREE crawl space repair consultation today!

A customer called us because in the past he had issues with water getting into his crawlspace, which is definitely not a good thing! The customer had made sure all the water dried, but he wanted to do something to prevent that from happening again, so he called us! The customer was wanting a type of waterproofing system done, and a pump system tp prevent it from happening again! Along with a dehumidifier to prevent a nasty musty smell!
We had a customer call us and he had concerns with moisture in the basement! There was definitely water damage he was unsure of how little or how much water damage there was, he was wanting a permanent fix to resolve the issue and prevent it from happening more and more!

Water comes in many forms, all which are harmful to your crawlspace! Standing water, water vapor, mildew, leaks coming in through cracks, you name it.. it all does damage.
In this crawlspace we're seeing basically all of the above. Water marks down the walls show either water leaking or high humidity levels forming water droplets to drip down and form water spots on the ground. The solution? Simple! A full perimeter drainage system, pump, and dehumidifier!!
A full perimeter drainage system will drain the water out of the crawlspace through the pump and back out where it belongs, outside! The dehumidifier will bring the humidity levels down which will help with moisture concerns as well as reduce chances of mold, insulation damage, allergen irritants, and the whole system combined will help reduce heating/cooling costs!!
Tony is interested in encapsulation, he is not impressed with the vapor barrier that was installed & has learned about encapsulation online. There were past humidity issues in the crawlspace causing the insulation to fall down. Our solution was cleanspace vapor barrier encapsulation with a sedona dehumidifier. As you can see there is also water coming down the footing and we are able to stop that concern with a smartpipe perimeter system and sump.
This customer had an ongoing problem with his foundation that he could not fix on his own. His basement walls were failing and leaning inward. Finally, they called us to see if there was anything that we could do before they tried lifting their house and starting with a new foundation.
We sent our specialist out right away to find a solution. Once there, our specialist discovered that these customers had had a problem with water getting into their basement. This means that the ground outside the foundation walls was very saturated and not only causing his basement walls to fail but also allowed water into their home. The amount of weight and force against basement walls when the soils around the home are wet is enough to cause severe damage.
Our solution for our customer was to install our PowerBrace wall support system along with a full perimeter drainage system around his basement and CleanSpace down the walls to catch any water or moisture that could come in and guide it to the drainage system. These systems will ensure that not only will their basement stay permanently dry all of the time, that their walls are stabilized. The PowerBrace system can stop a wall, if caught in time, from moving forward anymore, and over time it can actually push the wall back to its original place by tightening the bracket installed at the top of each PowerBrace.
Is your crawlspace flooding?
We have a few products that would be great to install in your crawlspace to help prevent water from coming in and flooding it.
Crawl Space Sump Pump System:
The SmartSump™ crawl space drainage system is specially designed for crawl spaces. It has a lower profile than other pump packages, making installation in tight quarters easier.
At its heart, however, is the same high-quality 1/3hp Zoeller pump used in many of Basement Systems other pump packages.
Are you concerned with moisture in your crawlspace?
The SaniDry™ Sedona is the world's most efficient, high-performance dehumidifier and filtration system (without a bulky heat exchange core).
When installed in your basement or crawl space, the Sedona can help prevent mold and reduce musty odors, giving you dry healthy air and total comfort.
The Sedona is small in size, yet powerful enough to lower humidity in even the dampest environment, such as the basement or crawl space.
Customer called due to their basement having water issues. They had large amounts of cracks on the outside as well as the inside of their basement walls. We installed carbon armor and Flexispan
The CarbonArmor system permanently stabilizes your home's foundation walls. CarbonArmor uses fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) which are 10-times stronger than steel, yet flexible enough to contour tightly against your basement wall.
FlexiSpan® is a patented crack repair system available exclusively from Basement Systems. Developed after years of research, the FlexiSpan system is an alternative to epoxy injection, another crack-sealing technique sometimes used by contractors.
Leaking basements are a thing in the past! We have a solution that will keep your basement dry for good! Let talk about WaterGuard®
The WaterGuard® basement waterproofing system from Basement Systems is an innovative interior basement drainage system designed to effectively solve your basement water problems. When combined with our sump pumps and other waterproofing products, WaterGuard will keep your basement clean and dry year-round.
Unlike conventional French drains that are installed outside the foundation or alongside the footing, WaterGuard drainage piping is installed inside the basement and won't clog with silt or plant roots.
WaterGuard effectively captures wall and floor seepage before it reaches your basement floor. Water enters the system via inlet holes and flows through the drainage pipe to your sump pump.
Basement Systems recommends installing WaterGuard along with our TripleSafe™ sump pump system for optimum protection.
Our complete basement waterproofing system offers everything you need to keep water out of your basement.
Homeowners prefer WaterGuard's discreet design. The drainage channel is hidden beneath a layer of concrete. Only the top edge of the wall flange is visible, so you'll hardly know it's there. Plus, WaterGuard comes with a 20-year warranty against clogs.
The WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system has a patented profile that includes:
During the last heavy rainfall, there was moisture/water in the basement underneath the flooring. The homeowner first had a plumber come out and determine it was not a plumbing issue and that it was most likely a foundation crack.
The homeowner gave us a call to see if we can determine where it may be and get a for waterproofing the interior of her basement.
With this continuous flooding in the basement, we installed waterguard as well as a SumpPump.
The homeowner gave us a call because the house is settling and cracking from the saturated ground.
We installed SmartPipe system with SmartSump to remove water from the crawlspace. We also installed Helical Piers with mechanical lift brackets. The brackets were installed to stabilize the staircase leading to the front door. The steps were starting to settle due to the saturated ground in the crawlspace
Water was entering their basement through two-bedroom walls. We installed Waterguard, SuperSump Pump, Lawnscape, and Iceguard.
The Waterguard was installed to drain the water to the SuperSump Pump. Lawnscape and Iceguard were installed to drain water away from the house and go towards the SuperSump Pump.
Ms. Henergy's house was sinking and she noticed her bathroom walls were cracking, because of the settling of the home. She gave us a call and we came up with the solution to install four Push Piers under the footing of the corner of the house.
We were able to lift and level out the corner of the house, which then pushed back the cracking into the bathroom. She was very happy to have the house back to being level as well as seeing the crack in her bathroom back together.
Ms. Palmgren had a single crack in her foundation, and she wanted to keep water from getting into her crawlspace. So we dug out the crack by removing the soil around her foundation and sealed the crack with Flexicock. By doing this seal it will now prevent any water from getting into her crawlspace.
Becky M. Basement was flooding they search for a solution and called Foundation Supportworks of Idaho and found that there was more to just flooding there was something wrong with her foundation/floor.
The major components for Becky was for Foundation Supportworks to install, CleanSpace, a SupPump and Smart Jack Beams. which will completely enclose her basement and any water that may come in. The CleanSpace will essentially guide that water to the SupPump so that the pump can kick the water back out. Then the Jack Beams will make the floor above their basement level again and to make sure that it is always supported.
Now Becky can enjoy a dry, functional basement again. Foundation Supportworks of Idaho was pleased that they could solve Becky's problem.
A homeowner in Boise owns a lovely home. Surrounded by tall trees in a beautiful neighborhood, this homeowner's back porch had sunken a few inches and was continuing to slowly sink further, causing some of the decorative concrete on the porch to crack. Realizing that it is better to fix the problem earlier rather than later, the homeowner contacted us, hoping we could fix it.
After our design specialist analyzed the situation, he recommended helical piers to lift the porch. The homeowner accepted his advice and followed through with the project to lift the porch. We installed the piers and restabilize the porch.
A homeowner in Boise noticed his foundation cracking and began wondering if his foundation was settling. There was a floor inside the house that was sagging, leaving a gap in a few places between the beautiful hardwood floor and the baseboards. Worried about his property, he contacted us in need of a permanent solution.
Our design specialist traveled to his home to evaluate the situation. We proposed Smartjacks to stabilize his floors, which he gratefully accepted. We quickly sent out our fabulous installation crew out and they successfully installed the Smartjacks, lifting the floors.
The homeowner was delighted with the lifted floors and was glad he decided to follow through with the project.
This Crawl Space in Southeast Boise had moisture issues from a broken pipe. The moisture has caused a terrible odor in their living area. The homeowner called in wanting to have the moisture issues solved and an encapsulation, venting, and moisture control. Moisture issues are not only bad for your home, but it is also a detrimental to your health. Moisture will quickly cause mold which can then cause major health issues. With these concerns, the homeowner gave us a call at Foundation Supportworks of Idaho and we turned their crawl space into a healthy, conditioned, clean space!
After a free, no obligation estimate, we were ready to transform this wet, stinky crawl space into a safe, healthy crawl space. We wanted to ensure that this homeowner’s home would stay healthy and safe for years to come, and this required installing out industry leading waterproofing products.
First, we put in a SaniDry Sedona with a condensate pump and Smart Drain to eliminate damp, musty odors in the crawl space by drying and filtering the air.
Secondly, CleanSpace Vent Covers, which permanently seals the crawl space vents.
Thirdly, we put in SilverGlo insulation, it boasts a radiant barrier, which reflects hear back into your crawl space for ultimate energy savings.
Fourthly, and the final step to encapsulate the crawl space with CleanSpace liner which is 20 mil, seven-ply barrier. With an exceptional impact, puncture, and brute tear resistance. CleanSpace is treated with UltraFresh antimicrobial finish to prevent mold growth also.
There is no doubt that this homeowner is enjoying a odor free living area as well as a crawl space that is completely conditioned. That is peace of mind!
Real Estate Agent called in with a home under contract. The home was built in 1968, and during the inspection the crack in the foundation was discovered. In order to move forward with the purchase, the crack needed to be stabilized. This crack is a horizontal crack in the foundation in the Crawl Space. Our Customer Care representative reassured the Agent that they called the right place. Upon the arrival our System Design Specialist examined the foundation and presented a product as the solution.
The major component of the new homeowner Benjamin’s crack repair system includes the installation of our CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing system. We at Foundation Supportworks Of Idaho are happy to provide this innovative product to stabilize and prevent any further damage for the new happy owner of the home.
Homeowners' were concerned about their foundation which had settled. There was noticeable signs and damage from where the home had settled. Worried of further damage occurring, they gave us a call to see if we could fix the problem. We sent over our expert to analyze the situation.
We installed three of our Push Piers using a standard bracket, to add support to the foundation. Soil was excavated at each pier location to install these. Once the soil was back-filled and tamped, we were able to lift and restore the foundation. Now these owners will be worry free about their home settling any further.
A homeowner had just closed on her new home. She bought it just a few days prior to us coming to visit. Her mom had called us to schedule a time to look at the floor in the house. There was a slope that was present that made it feel as if having to go uphill when walking throughout the home.

John in Coeur D Alene has a home up in near Huetter on the Snake River. Every few years he checks out his crawlspace just to make sure it’s in good shape, and every year the thin black 6 mil liner is hanging down in areas and serving no purpose. John has replaced the liner 5 times in the last 15 years! “I keep up on every area of my house because one day I plan to sale it” John said.

David from Boise spent all spring building his dream deck. David's brother in-law told him to dig a 3ft deep hole and fill it with concrete as the footing to support the structure above. Because his brother in-law is a contractor, David took his advice. By the end of spring David had his dream patio finish just in time for the summer.
Summer storms left 6 inches of water in David's back yard turning it in to a swamp. When the water was gone David walked around inspecting the damage. As he stood back away from the patio, he noticed it was lower on one end. He could see that the water had moved the soil down lower and now his newly built deck was less than perfect. He knew he could fix this issue but that it could turn into a reoccurring issue over the years and David was just ready to enjoy his deck.
David jumped on the web and searched in Boise, Meridian, Eagle, Mountain Home, Twin Falls, Nampa, Caldwell, Kuna, Garden City, Ontario and Pocatello. He was looking for a long-term stabilization product for his deck. He knew that with a long-term stabilization product he wouldn’t have to worry about this issue for a very long time.
That’s when David gave us a call!
We sent one of our foundation specialists out to look at the deck. Our EZ Post Helical Support System was exactly the product David was looking for! In addition to offering the utmost strength and stability, EZ Post offers many other benefits over traditional concrete footing. Installation can be completed year round. EZ Posts are also installed deeper than traditional concrete footings, making them less susceptible to changing moisture content in the soil. But what David loved the most was the 5 year warranty.
Now David can sit back and enjoy his deck year after year with no issues.
