Services Offered

Piling or piering is the technique of driving steel pipe pilings below a structures foundation to correct foundation settlement. Piers can be used to stabilize the structure to prevent further sinking or used to raise the structure back to a suitable level.

Installation: Initial evaluation taken. Expose foundation footing. Drive Stratos Pier® System. Lift / Stabilize foundation. Back-fill / Replace concrete.

When a foundation wall cracks do to movement, it must be repaired. Carbon fiber straps or epoxy are an appropriate repair to regain structural integrity. Polyurethane can be used to prevent water from penetrating the wall. Cracks wider than 1/8 inch are cause for concern.

Installation: The crack is first evaluated and cleaned out. Then either an epoxy or polyurethane is injected in the crack, Or carbon fiber is installed over the crack.

Many times a leaning or bowing wall can simply be braced in its current state. Using this method eliminates the need to excavate on the outside, and lowers the cost of the repair significantly. When bracing the wall, the I-beams are used in the same manner as when straightening the wall. The braced wall will not be straighter than it was, but it cannot ever get any worse.

Installation: Steel I-Beams are installed upright along with Joist brackets which will in return stabilize and or improve the integrity of the wall.

Have a basement that just won’t dry out? or have 100 year-old foundation? Leaks can be stopped with an interior or exterior drain tile systems.

A drain tile system is a collection of pipes installed around your foundation and discharged to a sump pump or daylight. The pipes are perforated to allow water to drain into them. They are designed to keep the water table far below the bottom of the basement floor, this controls the capillary action or wicking of water or water vapor on to the basement floor.

How do you know if you need a sump pump?

You live somewhere that experiences large accumulation of rain or snow.
You live in a flat or low-lying areas that hold and trap water.
Your basement has water intrusion from cracks and floor joints.
Mineral deposits showing on walls and floors from excess moisture.
You have a finished basement that contains costly items you want to protect against water damage and subsequent mold growth.

A wall leaning or bowing more than 2 inches, should be pushed back into place. Restoring the integrity of the foundation. This can be accomplished by using wall anchors or steel i-beam braces.

Installation: The wall is excavated over the span of the damaged area. The wall is then pushed or pulled back to plumb. The trench is then filled with clean gravel and soil.

Andy Schreiner Construction : Customer Reviews

We had our back patio sink and separate. We had Andy Schreiner Construction come out to give us a free estimate. We were very pleased with the work that was done by them, as well as the price. As well as the speed at which the work was done and the quality of the work that was accomplished was top notch. We would highly recommend this company for your concrete needs.

- Michael C. from Topeka, Ks.

I had Andy’s company repair the structural problems and the constant water intrusion issues that my basement was experiencing. I had dreaded seeing rain in the weather forecast, knowing that water would enter my basement and overwhelm my sump pump if it was a heavy deluge. Andy’s solutions were the perfect remedy! My basement is dry ALWAYS after his firm’s work. His crew was fast, efficient, and totally skilled. Andy is a great, professional and trustworthy person from my dealings with him. I would HIGHLY recommend his services for any foundation, waterproofing, and concrete solutions.

- Lawrence K. from Topeka, Ks.

Andy Schreiner and his crew are top notch. They arrived on time. Dug around my basement wall, straightened the wall, installed I beams and an egress window and water proofed the wall on the outside. Also installed a sump pump. I feel very confident that my basement issues have been addressed. They are polite, work very efficiently and are priced fairly. I would highly recommend.

- Susan F. from Topeka, Ks.

I had Schreiner Construction demolish & replace my driveway, 135' x 20', at my home near Auburn, KS. The job was done quickly and in a highly professional manner and they completed all the work, and more, that was agreed upon. I especially appreciated the professional workmanship and outstanding customer relations aspects Andy & his crew displayed during the course of the job. Andy was very good about keeping me informed of progress and weather delays and their workmanship exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend Andy Schreiner Construction for any concrete work you might need done.

- Doug M. from Auburn, KS

If you find yourself in need of foundation repair, you have my sympathies. Don’t despair, though, because Andy Schreiner Construction does excellent foundation repairs. My house, built in 1977 in Lawrence, sits on a lot that slopes down to a creek. Settling had occurred on one side of the house because backfill for a storm water drain was not properly compacted. Piers were needed to fix the settling.

Unknown to myself, and even professional foundation repair reps, my house has “unique” foundation footings. In addition to the traditional spread footing that foundation walls sit on, below that was a 4’ trench footing! We surmise this combination was to keep the house from sliding down the hill, which it has. But it also meant a lot of additional hard work for Andy’s crew. Andy kept me informed during the entire foundation repair and other aspects of the challenging work. The final product is outstanding. If you need foundation repair, I highly recommend Andy Schreiner Construction!
