Before & After Photos

This Elm City home was showing serious signs of foundation settlement most notably stair-step cracks across the brick wall and visible separation between the structure and the soil. Upon inspection, we found unstable soil conditions and pooling water around the footing, which had contributed to the shifting and settling over time.

To solve the issue, our crew installed helical piers, anchoring the foundation deep into stable, load-bearing soil. This method not only stopped further movement but provided an opportunity to lift and stabilize the affected section of the home.

Now, the area has been fully restored. The cracks are no longer worsening, the soil has been regraded and straw-covered, and the home’s structural integrity is secure. From visible distress to lasting peace of mind this transformation is exactly what foundation support should look like.

Helical piers stabilize a foundation by anchoring it to stable soil deep underground. They prevent further settlement or shifting caused by poor soil conditions, such as expansive clay or erosion.

Installing the PowerBrace system in parallel enhances structural stability by distributing loads evenly and providing consistent support across the structure. This configuration improves the building's resistance to lateral forces, ensuring greater overall strength and durability.

Visible stair-step cracking in the brick exterior indicated foundation settlement was affecting this Rocky Mount home. To permanently stabilize the structure, our team installed helical piers along the affected foundation wall. These engineered steel piers were advanced deep into stable load-bearing soils and connected to the home's foundation to help stop further settlement and provide lasting support. With the foundation stabilized, the homeowner can move forward with confidence knowing the home's structural integrity has been protected for the long term.

Soft, uneven, or bouncy floors are often caused by failing crawl space supports beneath your home. In this Roanoke Rapids, NC home, our team installed SmartJack support posts to reinforce the floor system and restore structural stability. Designed to support sagging beams and joists, SmartJacks provide a durable, adjustable solution that helps level floors and protects the home from further settlement.
