Foundation Repair Photo Album: Push Pier Installation in St. Louis, MO

This resident of St. Louis, MO was noticing signs of a foundation problem both inside and outside his house. There were stair-step cracks in the outside brick walls, and some of the windows were separating from the framing and had cracks extending from the corners. Inside the home, there were cracks in the drywall that followed the seams. The homeowner wanted to fix the issue before it became more severe.

Stair-Step Cracks

Stair-step cracks extending from the corners of windows are a common sign of foundation settlement.

Push Pier Installation

In order to install the piers, soil is first removed from the area where the pier will be driven.

Heavy-Duty Bracket

A heavy-duty bracket is installed below and against the foundation’s footing, and the piers are hydraulically driven through the bracket and down to bedrock.
