This home had stair-step cracking in the bricks on the front side of the house. This type of cracking occurs when their is suspected foundation settlement issues, which is what we diagnosed. We fixed the settlement issues by installing piers under the footer of the home. We were even able to lift the footers using hydraulics through the piers. This house won't settle any more on the front side.

A homeowner in Georgetown, Kentucky, was concerned with stairstep cracking on the brick on the outside of the home. The settling of the foundation causes the stairstep cracking. The freezing and thawing of the soil and changes in temperature can cause the land to move and makes the soil that is holding the house to become unstable. The Helical Pier System uses steel piers that are mechanically screwed into the ground until it reaches the competent earth. Next, a bracket is attached to the foundation footer and also to the steel pier. The bracket transfers the weight of the home from the unstable soil to the competent earth. The Helical Pier permanently stabilizes the foundation. See a Certified Inspector find out how Helical Piers may help resolve your foundation problems.
