Due to soil settlement, this home settled, leaving cracks in its brick foundation and requiring stabilization. Our solution to the problem was our foundation pier system. This system utilizes steel piers that extend deep into the soil and transfer the load of the home from its foundation to the solid bedrock below. This stabilizes the home and prevents any further settling.
A homeowner in Goldsboro, NC, contacted our office for help with a settling foundation. The exterior showed signs of stair-step cracks, while the interior had cracks around windows and doors. Additionally, the home was not sitting level. After assessing the property, we installed our foundation pier system. This system uses steel piers driven deep into stable soil to provide support and lift the foundation back to its original position. The installation corrected the settling issues and restored the home’s structural stability.
As a result of high moisture levels in this crawl space, the floor above is uneven and the fireplace is sloping. Installing SmartJack Support Posts in the crawl space was the most effective way to stabilize and lift the floor to a level position.
