Foundation Repair
Hunter and Son specializes in permanent foundation repair using patented Stabilis Resistance Piers and Helical Piers. Our solutions address soil instability and prevent future settling. Engineered for Kansas soils, these systems ensure long-term structural integrity for residential and commercial properties.
Basement Waterproofing
Our H2No Exterior Waterproofing and Basement Flume Drainage System protect against water intrusion. These commercial-grade solutions reduce moisture by 70% compared to conventional methods. We install durable moisture barriers and drainage systems to prevent mold and structural damage in basements.
Wall Anchoring
Stabilis Wall Anchors and Wall Stoppers reinforce bowing or cracked basement walls. This system provides permanent stabilization by transferring lateral pressure to the soil. Ideal for both residential and commercial structures, it prevents further wall failure and restores structural strength.
Earthquake Retrofitting
Hunter and Son offers earthquake-resistant foundation solutions developed through research at Wichita State University. Our specialized piers and anchoring systems mitigate seismic movement risks. These innovations protect properties in active soil zones from earthquake-induced settling and damage.
Crawlspace Encapsulation
Our crawlspace encapsulation services use heavy-duty vapor barriers and moisture control systems. This prevents humidity-related issues like mold and wood rot. The process improves indoor air quality and energy efficiency by sealing dirt floors and sealing vents in residential and commercial buildings.
