Before & After Photos

This Durham, NC homeowner began noticing foundation settlement issues that were causing cracks in the hearth and visible movement along the home’s foundation. As the soil beneath the home shifted, sections of the structure began to settle unevenly, putting stress on the masonry and surrounding areas.

To permanently stabilize the home, our team installed helical piers beneath the foundation. These engineered piers are advanced deep into stable load-bearing soil to help support and potentially lift settling areas of the structure. With the home now stabilized, the homeowner can have peace of mind knowing the foundation is protected from further settlement damage.

This Eden, NC home was showing signs of foundation settlement, including sinking soil around the perimeter and movement in the brick exterior. During inspection, our team found that the soil supporting the foundation had weakened, causing the structure to slowly shift and lose stability. To permanently address these symptoms, we installed helical piers, a deep-earth foundation system designed to reach strong, load-bearing soil and transfer the weight of the home to stable ground. Once secured to the footing, the piers prevent further settlement and can even help lift the home back toward its original position. After installation, the trench was carefully backfilled and restored, leaving the property stabilized and protected with a long-term structural solution.

A homeowner in Apex, NC was experiencing signs of foundation settlement and needed a permanent solution to stabilize their home. Our team excavated beneath the foundation footing and installed helical piers to reach stable soil below. The piers provide additional support to the foundation, helping prevent further settlement and protect the home for years to come.

Our team recently completed a helical pier installation in Apex, NC to address foundation settlement around this home. Signs of settlement can include cracks in exterior brick, shifting foundation walls, or uneven areas around the structure often caused by unstable or shifting soil beneath the home.

To permanently stabilize the foundation, our crew installed engineered helical piers beneath the footing. These steel piers are driven deep into stable soil layers until they reach load-bearing strata. Once installed, the piers transfer the weight of the home from weak surface soils to stronger, more stable ground below.

Helical piers provide a long-term solution for foundation settlement, helping prevent further structural movement while protecting the integrity and value of the home.

In Apex, NC, this homeowner planned to remove a load-bearing wall between their kitchen and family rooms. After receiving a structural engineer's report, this home needed a support system in the crawl space and foundation wall verification before moving forward.

To support the new beam and floor system, we installed SmartJack support posts that provide strong, adjustable support. With the foundation verified and SmartJacks in place, the home is ready for a safe, structurally sound renovation.
