Carolina Basement Systems Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Apex, NC was dealing with a sinking and cracked concrete driveway that created an uneven surface and reduced curb appeal. Over time, soil settlement beneath the slab caused sections of the driveway to shift, leading to visible cracks and potential tripping hazards.

Our team used PolyLevel concrete leveling to lift and stabilize the driveway with precision. This high-density foam was injected beneath the slab to fill voids, raise the concrete back to its original position, and provide long-term support.

The result is a smooth, level driveway that not only looks better but is safer and structurally sound without the need for a full replacement.

This Eden, NC home was showing signs of foundation settlement, including sinking soil around the perimeter and movement in the brick exterior. During inspection, our team found that the soil supporting the foundation had weakened, causing the structure to slowly shift and lose stability. To permanently address these symptoms, we installed helical piers, a deep-earth foundation system designed to reach strong, load-bearing soil and transfer the weight of the home to stable ground. Once secured to the footing, the piers prevent further settlement and can even help lift the home back toward its original position. After installation, the trench was carefully backfilled and restored, leaving the property stabilized and protected with a long-term structural solution.

A homeowner in Apex, NC was experiencing signs of foundation settlement and needed a permanent solution to stabilize their home. Our team excavated beneath the foundation footing and installed helical piers to reach stable soil below. The piers provide additional support to the foundation, helping prevent further settlement and protect the home for years to come.

Our team recently completed a helical pier installation in Apex, NC to address foundation settlement around this home. Signs of settlement can include cracks in exterior brick, shifting foundation walls, or uneven areas around the structure often caused by unstable or shifting soil beneath the home.

To permanently stabilize the foundation, our crew installed engineered helical piers beneath the footing. These steel piers are driven deep into stable soil layers until they reach load-bearing strata. Once installed, the piers transfer the weight of the home from weak surface soils to stronger, more stable ground below.

Helical piers provide a long-term solution for foundation settlement, helping prevent further structural movement while protecting the integrity and value of the home.

An Apex, NC homeowner noticed stair-step cracks along his home’s exterior brick foundation and contacted Carolina Basement Systems for an inspection. After a detailed evaluation, our inspector recommended six helical piers to stabilize the foundation and help prevent further settlement caused by shifting soil beneath the home. Our team installed the piers to provide lasting support and give the homeowner greater peace of mind.
