Before & After Photos

In Mayodan, NC, we were called to a split-level home built in the early 1960s, where the homeowner was preparing to sell and had concerns about the aging foundation and a driveway over 40 years old. During our inspection, we identified signs of foundation settlement cracking and separation in the brickwork beneath the porch caused by shifting and unstable soil over time. To address these structural issues and provide long-term stability, we installed helical piers, which are precision-engineered steel supports that are screwed deep into stable, load-bearing soil. These piers transfer the weight of the structure away from compromised ground, effectively halting further movement and restoring support to the foundation. This solution not only secures the home structurally but also enhances its resale value, offering confidence and peace of mind to both the current owner and potential buyers.

To stabilize this customers bowed and cracked wall, we installed our GeoLock Channel System. GeoLock Channel Anchors work by stabilizing and straightening bowing or cracked walls. They are installed with anchors placed in the soil outside the foundation wall and connected to steel channels inside the basement. This system counteracts the pressure exerted on the wall, preventing further movement and potentially straightening the wall over time.

This Madison, NC home was experiencing foundation settlement caused by unstable soil conditions around the front porch and foundation footing. Over time, poor soil support and excess moisture can lead to sinking, uneven structures, cracked brickwork, and gaps around the home’s exterior all warning signs that the foundation is no longer being properly supported.

To permanently address these issues, our team installed helical piers, a proven foundation repair solution designed to stabilize and lift settling foundations. These steel piers are mechanically driven deep into load-bearing soil, bypassing weak surface soils and transferring the weight of the home to stable ground below. Once installed, the piers provide immediate structural support and long-term protection against further settlement.

While not the most pressing issue to this pool deck, the pool house was in definite need of repair. The rusty and makeshift truss along the top was concerning to the structural integrity. We re-worked it and installed a new steel I-beam to keep the roof up.

The main floor of this home started to sink and sag. We installed our SmartJacks under the home to stop the sagging and push the floor back into place.
