Foundation Repair Photo Album: Foundation Settlement Damage Repair in Mayodan, NC

Our team resolved a foundation settlement issue that caused exterior cracks, sinking, and block foundation wall cracks in the garage. We used a foundation push pier system, which works by transferring the home's weight to stable soil layers deep below the surface. Steel piers are driven into the ground until they reach load-bearing soil. Once in place, the piers stabilize the foundation, lifting it back to its original position and preventing further settlement. This ensures long-term structural stability and eliminates further damage.

Separating Foundation Wall

The block walls separated due to foundation settlement caused by unstable soil. This uneven sinking created stress, forming cracks and compromising structural stability.

Backfilling Pier Location

After piers are installed, the team backfilled the pier locations to ensure the landscape was level.
