For this outside installation, the soil around the foundation must be excavated to expose the footing at each pier location
A section of the footing will be cut away so that the steel bracket connected to the pier will support the wall directly. This approach will provide more effective support than lifting the section of the footing that extends beyond the walls.
Once all piers and brackets have been installed, the settlement of your foundation will be permanently halted.
At this time, our team will determine whether or not it makes sense to lift the foundation back to its original position. This operation has the potential to close cracks in the foundation and return doors, locks, and windows to their original functionality! When complete, backfill of stone and/or soil is used to fill the areas where the piers were installed to clean a clean and level finish.
GeoLock anchors were used to straighten this retaining wall back to its original position. Steel anchors were embedded in stable soil away from the retaining wall using long, galvanized rods. Once in place, the anchor rods are tightened, pulling the wall back to its original position and providing long-term structural stability.
Our team installed SmartJack support posts to stabilize a sagging floor by first excavating holes at strategic points beneath the floor. The SmartJack system consists of steel support posts that are adjustable and designed to provide structural support. These posts were placed in the excavated holes and secured in place with concrete. The tops of the posts were then connected to the floor joists above, allowing for precise adjustment to lift and stabilize the sagging floor. The SmartJack system works by providing a strong, stable base that can be adjusted over time to maintain the integrity of the floor structure.
Cracked concrete with sinking section is lifted and repaired.
