Shotcrete: The Ultimate Foundation Repair Solution by Your Crawl Space Guys.
yourcrawlspaceguys.com
Welcome to today's TH-cam video, where we dive into the world of shotcrete, an innovative construction technique used to repair and reinforce foundations. In this comprehensive guide, we'll explore what shotcrete is, how it works, and showcase the expertise of Your Crawl Space Guys, a leading company specializing in foundation repairs. Whether you're a homeowner facing foundation issues or simply curious about this revolutionary repair method, this video will provide you with the knowledge you need to make informed decisions regarding your property's stability.
1.1 The Definition of Shotcrete:
Shotcrete is a construction material that involves a mixture of cement, aggregates, & water. What sets shotcrete apart is its application process, which utilizes a high-pressure pneumatic spraying nozzle to propel the mixture onto surfaces, creating a durable and robust foundation repair.
1.2 The Types of Shotcrete:
Shotcrete comes in two primary forms: wet-mix and dry-mix. Wet-mix shotcrete involves pre-blending all the ingredients before applying, while dry-mix shotcrete combines the components at the nozzle, offering greater flexibility in the field. Both types have their unique advantages, and we'll explore how Your Crawl Space Guys use them for foundation repairs.
1.3 Historical Significance and Applications:
Shotcrete's origins can be traced back to the early 20th century when it was first employed in tunnel construction. Today, this innovative material finds applications in various industries, such as building construction, infrastructure repairs, swimming pool construction, and, most importantly, foundation restoration.
2.1 Preliminary Assessments:
Before initiating any foundation repair project, Your Crawl Space Guys conduct a thorough assessment of the property. They identify the underlying issues causing the foundation problems, whether it's soil settlement, water damage, or structural weaknesses.
2.2 Site Preparation:
Proper site preparation is crucial for a successful shotcrete application. The team at Your Crawl Space Guys cleans the surface, removes any loose debris, and ensures a stable working environment before proceeding.
2.3 Mixing the Shotcrete:
Your Crawl Space Guys are equipped with state-of-the-art equipment to mix the shotcrete accurately. The right blend of cement, aggregates, and water is prepared, adhering to industry standards to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
2.4 The Shotcrete Application:
With the mixture ready, the shotcrete application process begins. Highly skilled technicians at Your Crawl Space Guys use specialized spraying equipment to apply the shotcrete, precisely targeting the areas that require repair. The high velocity at which the material is sprayed ensures proper adhesion to the existing surface.
2.5 Curing Process:
After the shotcrete is applied, it undergoes a curing process to achieve its full strength and durability. Your Crawl Space Guys follow specific curing protocols to ensure the repair bonds effectively with the surrounding foundation.
2.6 Finishing Touches:
Once the shotcrete has cured, the team at Your Crawl Space Guys adds finishing touches to ensure the repaired area blends seamlessly with the rest of the foundation. This attention to detail results in a polished and aesthetically pleasing outcome.
3.1 The Importance of Professional Foundation Repair:
Foundation problems are serious issues that can compromise the structural integrity of your property. When dealing with foundation repair, it is essential to trust experts who have the knowledge, experience, and access to the right tools. Your Crawl Space Guys possess all these qualities and more.
3.2 The Your Crawl Space Guys Advantage:
With years of experience in the industry, Your Crawl Space Guys have established themselves as one of the most reputable foundation repair companies. They have a team of skilled technicians who undergo extensive training to handle shotcrete applications with precision and care.
3.3 State-of-the-Art Equipment:

A crawl space with 3 inches of standing water.... very common and ready to fix by Your Crawl Space Guys!
I wish you were in Missouri. We need this exact thing done to our house but there are no companies around like this.
Remove the mudic pleaseeeeee
Doing really needed work there. I wish you were in WA Coast area. I need my crawl dug out too. Nobody around here does that I could find.
why would you fix anything in a sanctuary city? it's going to fall like the city of Sodom
Anyone else spend most the time at start watching the crew struggle with the wood haha. Also it’s FALLS CITY, Oregon :) be safe out and under there!
The house appears to be sinking because you have a soils issue. There is an issue with the soil that is causing the house to sink or move laterally you’re trying to repair it as a construction defect it would appear. That will not work long-term the crack happened because the curtain wall sunk. reinforcing the existing curtain wall and amending the footing will only add more weight to the problematic soils.
You really have some good workers. Great video!! Love the conveyor belt / concrete trays to move the dirt.
💐 'Promo SM'
Very hard working crew here! Wish you guys were in Illinois! My crawlspace is impossible to work in. It needs to be dug out. Great video. Thanks for showing.
Just a suggestion. Instead of a tapered wooden wedge that is impossible to properly fit between the top of the old footing and the plates. A nonshrink concrete grout would have been a beter solution.
Imagine this cost 50k or more
This is great for the people living in Fall City and other flood areas
Are you supposed to put gravel underneath the cement posts? How far did you dig down?
Music was too loud I couldn’t hear anything you were saying
I don’t think it was too loud but I may be losing hearing! 😅 We will change up the music to a more mellow and less hyper vibe for our next videos!
WOW fixing the foundation probably cost as much as that small house was worth.
Lisa, yes, foundation jobs are where we get the most return on investment in all honesty. But by pouring a new foundation and the partial dig out, we are completely changing the environment under homes from damp, tight spaces that smell of mildew and compromise the structural longevity of the home above. Sometimes people look at the price, get a few bids and decide to tear it down baby! But many times, these homes hold sentimental value and we want to help Oregonians and our Washington neighbors preserve their homes for many many decades to come. Pro Tip: There are some great 0% interest if paid in full unsecured finance options out there!
Hey why is clear plastic a bad thing? Like pros and cons
Hi Matthew, clear plastic vapor barrier tends to have a slightly thicker membrane and folds differently than a typical black poly 6 mil. Pros would include esthetics (it just looks cleaner) and it is slightly thicker. We are happy to use either or, however the clear plastic unfolds awkwardly and is more labor intensive and therefore more expensive. We have found that in most every instance, the black 6 mil poly plastic vapor barrier is lasting as long as it claims and is more pleasant to install. Hope this helps!
I need to call you guys to come look at my crawlspace to see if I need to do anything! Live out by the Beaverton area.
Deal! We can be reached at 503-980-1564 and at office@yourcrawlspaceguys.com
Excellent presentation! Be nice if you did not have to do the cementitious spraying in such a small enclosed space.
Indeed it would be! There is so much new innovation coming out and we are really excited to be part of the future!
@@yourcrawlspaceguys This option is not available just yet: th-cam.com/video/5j_Q-9WUUHI/w-d-xo.html We will be at WOC anyway.
You should loose the music. TH-cam viewers much prefer natural sounds over music, especially if your trying to explain something.
You are definitely correct. I am trying to watch this in spite of the loud unnecessary music. The video itself is good!
A common suggestion, while we do like the country dirt road-feel good vibe, we appreciate the feedback and will be making some changes to our upcoming videos. Thank you!
I think this is what they would have to do with my house sadly :( i hear my wallet sobbing. It's an old ww 1 or 2 house that was moved to where it is now and only has brick pylons underneath with stucco on the outside.
Do you live in the area? We’d be happy to come provide a free on-site assessment for you! Additionally, it’s always a good idea to get at least 3-4 quality bids for these jobs. We do negotiate at times but our prices tend to be lower than our big name competitors and higher than new contractors with less experience. Pro Tip: Don’t fall prey to shady sales techniques that rely on fear and immediate signatures. Always get at least a second opinion to protect your wallet from being taken advantage of!
That is a nice job !! 👏 👌 👍 professional
Thank you! Cheers!

How much did that job cost? Just out of curiosity. Thanks in advance!
Mold remediation and spray foam the floor joist lol
How much was this job?
2 questions: where is the water coming from and isn’t the mud eventually going to clog up the sock wrapped around the tube?
How was this temp supported? Just the girders holding the house up?
any chance you wanna come to MA ?!!!
how much did that job cost? Must be pricey!
you could have least drilled into the concrete to add a supporting 4x4 bracket
Watched a guy do this to his own house years ago, but he didn't have the $$ to hire it out. The guy and a few friends dug each corner of the home out to 8 ft. (was a crawl) and supported the place on 6x6 timbers. Poured a proper footing and a week later installed block on each corner. (one corner per weekend) That part took another 2 months and a LOT of beer / pizza. At the 6 month mark they had closed in the other walls, except for what would become a Bilco door, which was left as a ramp because they were hand digging to make a full basement. Somewhere around the 9 month mark they poured a pad area for the furnace and well tank. They continued to dig intermittently over the winter and finally poured the floor about a year after starting. Recalling at the start they jig rigged all the plumbing on rubber hoses and bungee cords so they could jack the place level and raise it 6 inches to work. They even connected the sewer line with a section of tire tube so the guy could live in the house the whole time. Not a big house... maybe 1400 sq ft.
That's awesome. I love DYI stuffs. Save so much money!
I know of a House that someone jacked up to make a basement and had supports on the four corners and the house fell into the hole. No one was hurt but the house was eventually torn down.
I just bought a fixer with foundation problems and this is exactly the cure I'm looking for. Can you guys come to the Bay Area in CA? I would love to speak with you. Please message me.
Sorry Joanne we service the Willamette valley and coastal area in Oregon...
@@ashleydixon1558 Thanks for your quick response. Do you have anyone in California you can recommend?
Wow.. i need this now.. damn Oak trees.. just cut up like 30feet of roots with chainsaw and dug up , by hand on 1 side of my home! Then added drain pipes to run water away from home. I know this cost over $10,000 to do.
Americans love to put trees next to house. I don't know why?
Probably cheaper to tear it down and rebuilt
Good job! 😊And my wife and I did this th-cam.com/video/OCd3JkZoedw/w-d-xo.html

These guys went above and beyond working on my house today. Thank you Crawl Space guys!
woww that is exactly what I need done to my old house. I wonder how much that cost. My house is about the same size if not a tad bit smaller.
Anywhere between $30,000 to $50,000 is about average. It depends on how complex, large, full or partial, etc. It's not cheap but will save the $150,000+ sitting on top of it. It is not something you want to try yourself especially if it is the whole foundation being replaced. Make sure you research the company and they are legit professionals.
@@brianallison1913 thank you kindly
@@brianallison1913 thank you for that information. Much appreciated
Haha, good one jess. It is pricey, and we are terrible about responding to comments on youtube. If you want info it's definitely better to call or email us. A full foundation replacement can be very expensive. You can spend $50k pretty quick. But yes, it does depend on the size of the job and how difficult it is.
Good job! 😊
Wow! I had my whole foundation replaced for $3000
@@BonMooneygirl where?
How much did this cost?
somewhere around $55k. Foundation work is spendy, but if the foundation isn't right, then everything else will eventually fail.

What kind of tub are you using? I'm looking for something sturdy to dig out my 10" crawl space! Loved this idea of pulling a tub with a rope!
Thanks for taking the time to make this. Its very helpful.
Would you guys have a rough estimate of much this would cost?
Hi there, each house is unique with their own issues and we have to estimate accordingly. If you want to give us a call at 503-980-1564 or email office@yourcrawlspaceguys.com we can get an accurate quote and a free estimate going for you. We are one of the highest quality and most affordable companies around I can say though.
Why isn't the bottom of the post supported by brackets? Looks like it could eventually move off the concrete.
Like a tree bending in the wind, its okay for a house to be able to settle after an earth quake. Brackets will bind you up, like turning too tight in a 4wd.
This is pretty slick. What do you guys do with not so nice crawl spaces where you literally have to crawl? Going down into my crawl space at best you are on your hands and knees, at worst your army crawling because there is so little clearance.
We get 'er done, but its not as fun and you can't get a nice camera down to film it lol. We're not afraid of tight spaces-sometimes we dig our way in...
