Before & After Photos

This Orange Park, FL home was showing clear signs of foundation movement. A willow tree stump removed years ago likely contributed to soil erosion beneath the slab, leading to uneven floors from the garage to kitchen door, an unlevel sliding glass door, and visible stair-step cracks in the cinderblock walls. The back patio had also shifted and become uneven over time.

To address these issues, the underlying soil instability was targeted to restore proper support to the slab foundation. By stabilizing the affected areas, the home’s structure was reinforced, helping correct unlevel surfaces and prevent further cracking. The result is a safer, more stable home with improved structural integrity and long-term peace of mind.

This troubled home was experiencing severe foundation failure that was apparent via the large stair-step cracks that had appeared on the exterior brick walls. A corner of this home seemed to be separating and sinking into the ground. Our expert crew permanently stabilized this home's foundation by installing 8 helical piers. These galvanized piers are screwed into the ground and transfer the weight of the home to load bearing soil or  bedrock. In this case, they were even able to lift the foundation up to be closer to its original position -  closing the giant gap in the bricks that had previously appeared. 

We permanently stabilized this home's sagging foundation by installing SmartJacks with steel supplemental beams throughout the crawl space. These galvanized steel piers immediately stop settlement and they can even adjust to lift the floors above back to their original position. 

A homeowner in Jacksonville, FL noticed signs of foundation settlement around their home, including concerns about structural movement and areas of the foundation that were no longer being adequately supported. Left unaddressed, foundation settlement can lead to worsening cracks, uneven floors, sticking doors and windows, and additional structural damage.

To permanently stabilize the home, our team installed helical piers beneath the affected foundation. These engineered steel piers are advanced deep into stable load-bearing soil and attached to the foundation to help stop further settlement and provide long-term support.

With the helical pier system in place, this Jacksonville homeowner can have confidence that their home's foundation is supported by a durable solution designed to protect the structure for years to come.

Using our foundation pier system, we permanently stabilized this customers home. Our pier system provides strong, long-lasting support by transferring the weight of the home to solid soil. This prevents further settlement and permanent stabilization. Once piers are installed and home is stable, the crew levels the pier locations with soil.
