Several of the foundation support piers under this building were sunken into the ground, uneven, and even collapsed. These problems are a result of shifting soil and/or erosion caused by water, which caused the piers to move and sink. Stabilizing the foundation permanently with SmartJack Support Posts was the most effective way to ensure the building's safety.
In order to stabilize and secure the home's stability, foundation repair expert Jason C. and his crew installed foundation push piers. Foundation settlement typically occurs when soil compresses (settles), shrinks, or becomes too wet to support a home. Push piers permanently stabilize the foundation by transferring the weight of the structure to competent soil.
Facing severe foundation issues, water intrusion, and unsettling in a coal cellar in Kutztown, PA, a homeowner turned to us for help. As noticeable in the before photo, the problem was dire, posing a risk to the home's integrity. We responded with a durable solution, installing Push Pier and EverBrace systems, evident in the after photo, to secure and stabilize the foundation. Today, the homeowner enjoys peace of mind with a solid, dry basement, embodying our mission for exceptional service and reliable repair.
55ft of WaterGuard Drainage System was installed along the inside perimeter of the first floor living room. This home was originally built into a hillside without a drainage system in place. Water flowed through the soil through the hill, causing water damage to their living space. That same water flow caused inward pressure on the foundation wall, and was beginning to bow in. The PowerBrace System was installed to stabilize and straighten the hillside foundation wall.
