Sinking Side of Home
The right part of the home was sinking, so we prepared to install piers on this side.
Separated Door and Door Frame
Doors and their frames are often the first sign that your foundation is settling.
Piers Under The Exposed Footer
In order to drill our piers down, we have to expose your homes footers by digging trenches. This trench was about 3 and a half feet deep; Half a foot deeper than code.
Backfilled Trenches
Our piers are completely concealed after we backfilled them with dirt.
Hydraulic Pier
This pier has a hydraulic attachment, which allows us to lift the foundation. This trench was on the shallower side. Shallow footers are usually a pretty good reason for a house to settle.
