Slab settlement problems are typically caused by changing soil conditions under the slab. Drying and shrinking of soils due to HVAC systems is one of the most common causes, along with soil consolidation due to poorly compacted fill soils during construction. No matter what the cause, a sinking slab can cause significant damage and is something that needs to be permanently repaired.
Some homeowners think that removing and replacing the slab is the solution to fix the problem, without realizing how costly, messy and disruptive it is to your home. And, because the real problem is with the compaction of the soil rather than with the slab itself, the same problem is likely to occur again.
Other solutions such as mudjacking, only add weight to the problem and are unable to reach deep, competent soils in order to support the slab permanently.
The Foundation Supportworks' Slab Pier System is the answer
The Foundation Supportworks Slab Pier System utilizes steel pier underpinning sections that are installed deep into the soil under the slab to transfer the weight of the slab to competent strata. Once the piers are installed, you can also lift the slab back to a level position.
Installation of the Foundation Supportworks' Slab Pier System allows you to fix your settled slab quickly, without the need to remove the existing slab and any walls in the area. Installations can be performed year round and do not require the use of heavy equipment.
