Foundation Repair Photo Album: Signs of Foundation Settlement
There are many signs and symptoms that may indicate your home is experiencing a foundation settlement problem. These signs can be seen both inside and outside of your home. Signs outside of the home include stair-step cracking, separating cracks, and problems with doors and windows. Homeowner Joshua E. of Union, Missouri was noticing some of these signs around the outside of his home. He made a call to Woods Basement Systems to see if they had a solution to repair his foundation problems. Our foreman Jose Lorenzana and his team installed PushPiers - Push Piers are designed to stabilize and/or lift foundations by transferring the weight of the home from unstable soil to the suitable more stable soils below.
The PushPier System
PushPiers are made of steel and are driven deep into the soil beneath a foundation to solve settlement problems.
PushPier Installation
Push piers can be installed inside or outside your foundation walls and are not visible once the repair is complete.
Foundation Issues
There are three main foundation issues your home can experience, foundation settlement, sloping or sagging floors, and wall failure.
Why Should I Fix my Foundation Problem?
Foundation problems never fix themselves. In time, they get worse unless the real cause is addressed with a permanent solution.
