COMMON FOUNDATION PROBLEMS AND STRUCTURAL CHALLENGES

LEANING OR BOWING WALLS
Leaning or bowing walls means your home receives too much outside pressure. This pressure unsettles your home’s foundation and creates a danger to you and your family.

CRACKING WALLS
Cracks within the foundation of your home could be a sign of bigger foundation issues. They can also be points of intrusion for water. There are effective repairs for these solutions that we can help you with.

SINKING FOUNDATION
Sometimes the soils that your foundation is sitting on can shift over time and cause your foundation to sink. This can cause some doors and windows to stop functioning and sheetrock to crack due to movement. A solution can be designed to stop and even correct the sinking.
THE BEST SOLUTIONS FOR FOUNDATION RESTORATION
A Thorough Inspection
Our first goal is to gain the best understanding of the issue you are facing. Many factors can cause foundation issues, and finding the best solution means being thorough. By gathering as much information as we can, we can map out the best solution to your problem.


EARTH ANCHORS
Earth anchors provide much-needed support for leaning and bowing walls. Using the earth as an anchor point the walls can be permanently supported to stop further movement and can sometimes even be straightened back out of their original position.
ECCENTRIC PIERS
A sinking foundation can be supported and even lifted back to level using an eccentric pier system. Large metal brackets are attached to the underside of the foundation footer and steel piers are hydraulically driven into the ground until lift can be achieved.
