Explore real projects completed by Badger & Zaps LLC throughout the Twin Cities metro area and surrounding communities. These before-and-after photos showcase our garage raising, garage slab replacement, and garage straightening services for homeowners dealing with settlement, cracking, and structural movement.
Every garage is a little different. Some have settled over time, others need to be raised so a new concrete slab can be installed, and some simply need structural straightening and bracing. Our job is to carefully lift and stabilize the garage so it’s properly supported and ready for the next step.
These photos highlight the transformation from uneven, aging garages to solid, secure structures. We take pride in doing the job right and making sure each garage is safely raised, leveled, and supported.

This 100-year-old garage had definitely seen its share of Minnesota seasons. After calling Frank, the homeowner was excited to give the garage a fresh start. With the structure lifted and a brand-new concrete slab installed, this historic garage now has a solid foundation and plenty of life left for years of use.
This garage had started to settle over time, leaving the structure uneven and the old slab worn out. After reaching out to Frank, the homeowner was excited to give the garage a fresh start. The structure was carefully lifted and prepared for a new concrete slab, giving the garage a strong, level foundation that will last.
This 190-year-old garage had seen better days. Years of settling had caused the concrete slab to sink, allowing the wood framing to rot and settle into the ground. The shifting foundation left the walls bowing and the garage doors unable to close properly.
Our team carefully raised and stabilized the structure, corrected the settling issues, and restored the garage to a safe, level, and structurally sound condition. It's another example of how Badger & Zaps helps preserve garages that many would assume are beyond repair.
At first glance, the biggest problems with this garage weren't obvious—but the roofline told the story. The metal drip edge along the shingles revealed significant sagging, with the center of the garage lifted while both sides had settled. Inside, the bottom wall plate had completely rotted away and was sinking into the ground. The concrete slab was badly cracked and settling, the walls had bowed more than two inches, and the garage doors were so misaligned they were difficult to open and close.
By raising and straightening the structure, replacing the deteriorated support, and correcting the settlement issues, we restored the garage to a level, structurally sound condition. The walls are straight again, the doors operate smoothly, and the garage is ready for many more years of use.
