Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Lifting and Stabilizing Home with PushPier System
Homeowner Linda M. of Logan, Illinois was dealing with a foundation issue in her home. Outside of the home, there were cracks forming on the foundation walls, indicating signs of foundation settlement. She made a call to Woods Basement Systems to see if they could install a solution to her problem.
Luckily, our foreman Jose Lorenzana and his team had the perfect solution for her foundation issue, PushPiers. Push Piers are made of steel and are driven deep into the soil beneath a foundation to solve settlement problems. Once the system was installed, homeowner Linda was happy knowing her home was safe and stable for years to come.
Advantages of PushPiers
In many scenarios, push piers not only stop settlement but lift the foundation back to its original position, closing cracks and improving window and door operation.
PushPier Installation
Push piers can be installed inside or outside your foundation walls and are not visible once the repair is complete.
Cracked Foundation Walls
The cracks on the foundation walls indicate a larger foundation issue within the home.
Support Posts
Beneath the home, the support posts were cracked causing an unstable home above.
