Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

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.

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.

To stabilize this customers bowed and cracked wall, we installed our GeoLock Channel System. GeoLock Channel Anchors work by stabilizing and straightening bowing or cracked walls. They are installed with anchors placed in the soil outside the foundation wall and connected to steel channels inside the basement. This system counteracts the pressure exerted on the wall, preventing further movement and potentially straightening the wall over time.

While not the most pressing issue to this pool deck, the pool house was in definite need of repair. The rusty and makeshift truss along the top was concerning to the structural integrity. We re-worked it and installed a new steel I-beam to keep the roof up.

This High Point homeowner noticed signs of foundation settlement along the corner of their home, including visible cracks and uneven separation near the siding and brick. Over time, shifting soils beneath the foundation caused sections of the structure to sink, putting stress on the home’s exterior and interior framing.

Our team installed helical piers to provide deep, stable support for the affected area. The first photo shows the excavation and installation process, where the pier bracket is securely attached to the foundation footing. These piers are driven deep into load-bearing soil, transferring the home’s weight to a more stable layer underground.

Once installed, the helical piers not only stabilized the structure but also allowed for precise lifting to help close cracks and restore the foundation’s integrity. This permanent solution ensures lasting stability, protecting the home from future settling and structural damage.
