Foundation Cracks
Foundation settlement and house movement can occur when a soil layer can't support the weight of the home. This can lead to cracks forming inside and outside the home, hard to open and close doors and windows, and unlevel floors.
Removing Soil For Pier Installation
After the team identifies the locations of each pier installation, they must remove the soil to depth that exposes the foundations footing.
Preparing Foundation Footing
The soil outside of the home is excavated to expose the foundations footing at each pier location. A section of the footing will be cut away so that the steel bracket connected to the pier will support the wall directly.
Foundation Pier
Once all piers and brackets have been installed, the settlement of your foundation will be permanently halted.
Backfilled Pier Location
Backfill is used to fill each hole that a foundation pier was installed to leave a clean and level ground.
