Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

We installed foundation piers to repair the sinking foundation because they provide deep support, stabilize the structure, and prevent further settlement. Foundation piers are driven deep into the ground until they reach stable soil or bedrock, effectively transferring the building's weight to more solid ground. This method addresses the underlying cause of the sinking, such as soil erosion or poor compaction, ensuring a long-term solution. Additionally, foundation piers can help restore the structural integrity of the building, prevent further damage, and improve overall safety.

Moisture in this crawl space led to bouncy floors above it. To eliminate the floors from feeling uneven or bouncy, we installed our SmartJack System. SmartJack posts are installed by placing them beneath the floor joists in the crawl space, providing additional support to the floor structure. This helps to stabilize and level the floors, reducing bounciness and improving overall structural integrity.

This Greensboro home was showing serious foundation symptoms, including a visibly leaning wall, cracks in the brick exterior, and settlement caused by unstable soil beneath the foundation. These issues not only impacted the home’s appearance but also threatened its structural safety.

To permanently stabilize the foundation, our team installed Helical Piers. These steel piers are hydraulically advanced deep into stable soil layers, creating a secure support system that lifts and holds the home in place. By transferring the weight of the structure from weak surface soils to stronger, load-bearing strata below, the foundation is now reinforced, the leaning wall has been corrected, and the home is protected from further settlement.

This Greensboro basement showed serious foundation symptoms, including crumbling block along the base, horizontal cracks, and signs of water intrusion that weakened the wall. Left unaddressed, this type of damage can lead to dangerous bowing and further structural failure.

To fix the problem, our team installed a series of GeoLock Wall Anchors. These anchors work by connecting heavy-duty steel plates inside the basement to anchor plates buried in stable soil outside. A steel rod ties them together, and by tightening the system, the wall is immediately stabilized and can even be straightened over time. This non-invasive solution permanently halts further movement, reinforces the foundation, and protects the home for years to come.

This Greensboro, NC crawl space was experiencing multiple issues that put the home’s stability and air quality at risk. The original crawl space had torn, ineffective plastic lining, failing insulation, and makeshift block supports that were no longer providing reliable structural strength. Symptoms included musty odors, high moisture levels, and sagging floor joists caused by inadequate support and poor moisture control.

To solve these problems, our team installed the SmartJack Crawl Space Support System to permanently stabilize the floor system and prevent further sagging. We also encapsulated the crawl space with a CleanSpace vapor barrier, creating a sealed environment that blocks out ground moisture, reduces humidity, and protects the home from mold, pests, and structural damage.

With SmartJacks and CleanSpace in place, this Greensboro crawl space is now dry, stable, and energy-efficient giving the homeowner a healthier and more secure foundation.
