It takes a pro to properly repair a foundation. I-beam braces and wall anchors correct bowed walls, piers raise and stabilize sinking foundations, and a combination of methods are used to stop lateral foundation creep.
There are several advantages offered by the helical pile approach to foundation repair. This includes quick and easy installation, simple load testing, and minimal soil removal and effects on landscaping.
When it comes to foundation distress, timeliness is everything. The more you delay having the necessary repairs made, the more your foundation will sink, leading to further costly damage.
Under certain conditions, foundations have been known to buckle when the exterior walls have been insulated without proper planning. The effects of extremely wet soils and freezing conditions are not properly mitigated and the walls get pushed in.
