This homeowner had slanted doors and shifting floors - indicating a serious problem with the foundation. Our team installed SmartJack supports and steel supplemental beams to stop any further sinking of the foundation and begin to raise the house back to its original place.
Our foundation pier system will stabilize this customers tilting brick chimney by transferring its weight to stable soil layers beneath the foundation. Steel piers are driven deep into the ground until they reach load-bearing strata. The chimney's weight is then transferred to these piers, preventing further settlement and providing long-term stability.
This crawl space's floor joists had weakened and shifted overtime, causing the floors above to sink. We permanently stabilized the foundation by installing SmartJacks with steel supplemental beams throughout the crawl space. These fully-adjustable steel piers will stop settlement in its tracks and may even lift the floors above back to their original position.
This home, built in 1909, was lacking effective foundation support. Existing support columns had failed and had been replaced with stacks of wooden blocks. The floors were sagging, and the patio had settled and shifted away from the home. Our crew permanently stabilized the bouncing floors with the SmartJack system. These high-capacity steel piers are the only floor stabilizing solution that addresses the root cause of the issue, weak soils!
Helical piers stabilize a foundation by anchoring it to stable soil deep underground. They prevent further settlement or shifting caused by poor soil conditions, such as expansive clay or erosion.
