Sinking South St. Louis Foundation Leveled With Push Piers

Cracking present in the exterior brickwork of a home is quite often a sign of foundation settlement. Because of this, it is important to contact an expert if and when these cracks are noticed before the problems can get worse. This South St. Louis homeowner did the smart thing and called Woods Basement Systems as soon as she noticed cracks on the outside of her home. A Woods team installed several Push Piers, galvanized steel beams, underneath the foundation before adjusting them to lift the home back to level. It's a good thing that this homeowner called when she did!

These can also close cracks and improve the operation of windows and doors. This is the least risky solution when the soil conditions are unknown.
