Foundation Repair Photo Album: Slab Piers to Stop a Sinking House in Fenton, MO

Slab foundation homes do not have a basement or crawl space. Most do have a footing and foundation, but the house itself is built off the concrete floor that is resting on the foundation. Like other foundations, this type may settle too. The push pier repair method is similar but with a twist. The slab piering bracket fits through a hole cut through the concrete floor and the bracket can spread out to properly support the floor and stop the settling.
