Structural Stabilization for Settling Foundation Using Foundation Helical Piers in Washington, NC

For this outside installation, the soil around the foundation must be excavated to expose the 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. This approach will provide more effective support than lifting the section of the footing that extends beyond the walls.

Once all piers and brackets have been installed, the settlement of your foundation will be permanently halted.

At this time, our team will determine whether or not it makes sense to lift the foundation back to its original position. This operation has the potential to close cracks in the foundation and return doors, locks, and windows to their original functionality! When complete, backfill of stone and/or soil is used to fill the areas where the piers were installed to clean a clean and level finish.
