Before & After Photos

This building fell victim to soil settlement. To permanently stabilize the structure, we installed our Foundation Push Pier System. This system works by transferring the weight of the building to solid ground through the pier system. 

From years of pressure, exerted from the dirt behind the block wall, the mortar lines started to crack, and the wall bowed. This problem is very commonplace for older block walls in wet areas, and it is also very solvable. We installed CarbonArmor strips along the wall which creates a tough elastic support that is more than strong enough to counter the pressure coming from behind the wall and keeps the wall supported in the future.

Foundation walls can buckle due to soil pressure, water saturation, poor construction, or settling of the ground beneath the foundation. The wall develops cracks, bows inward, or shifts out of alignment, compromising its structural integrity. The CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcement System repairs the problem by applying high-strength carbon fiber straps to the wall, which distribute the load and prevent further buckling or movement, effectively stabilizing the foundation.

Our foundation pier system effectively addressed the customer's sinking porch problem in Mayodan, NC, by providing stable support and lifting the porch back to its original position. This system involves installing steel piers deep into the ground until they reach stable soil, which then supports the weight of the structure. This method not only prevents further sinking but also corrects any existing settlement issues, ensuring long-term stability and safety.

This troubled home was experiencing sagging floors and moisture problems due to an untreated crawlspace. Our expert team installed a SmartJack support system with steel supplemental beams to permanently stabilize this home's foundation. Then, we finished it off with our CleanSpace encapsulation system to cover, seal, and protect the area from any water vapors in the ground below.
