Carolina Basement Systems Before & After Photos

This Advance, NC home received a helical pier installation to stabilize the foundation and help prevent further settlement. Our crew carefully excavated beside the home, installed the pier and foundation bracket, then restored the area with stone for a clean finish and lasting structural support.

This homeowner in Advance, NC began noticing signs of foundation settlement around their entryway slab, including uneven concrete, separation near the doorway, and soil erosion along the foundation. These symptoms often point to unstable or shifting soil beneath the slab, which can cause sections of the home’s exterior to sink over time.

To provide a permanent solution, our team installed helical piers beneath the affected area. These steel piers are driven deep into stable, load-bearing soil to bypass weak surface layers responsible for the settlement. By transferring the weight of the structure to more reliable ground, the piers help stabilize the slab and prevent further movement.

Once installation was complete, the area was backfilled and restored, leaving a clean, seamless finish. With helical piers in place, this entryway is now supported by a strong, long-lasting foundation giving the homeowner peace of mind and protection against future settlement.

This Advance, NC homeowner was dealing with a crawl space affected by exposed soil, moisture intrusion, and unprotected ground surfaces that allowed humidity to accumulate beneath the home. Conditions like these can contribute to musty odors, elevated indoor humidity levels, and an environment where mold and wood rot may develop over time.

To create a healthier and more protected crawl space, our team installed a durable vapor barrier across the crawl space floor and wrapped the support piers to help block ground moisture. We also installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to actively control humidity levels year-round. Together, these solutions help reduce moisture, improve air quality throughout the home, and create a cleaner, brighter crawl space environment. The result is a dry, conditioned space designed to protect the home's structure and provide long-term peace of mind.

This home owner was having to sqeegee off his back porch after every rain because the dip in the concrete allowed for standing water. Luckily we got a crew out to him and leveled the slab with poly while still maintaining enough slope to run water away from the base of his home.

The ground that settled underneath this concrete walkway was causing shifting and made it uneven. We fixed these trip hazards with our PolyLevel foam and NexusPro sealant that leveled the concrete slabs and sealed the cracks.
