Before & After Photos

Greene County has many homes experiencing foundation settlement, like seen in this home. Stair-step cracking on the outside brick of the home was the surest sign of settlement. We stabilized the foundation by installing steel piers to the footers of the foundation. If you are experiencing foundation settlement, be sure to give us a call for a free estimate.

Do you have a sinking structure from the drought causing soil shrinkage? We've seen it all; chimneys, basements, crawl spaces, porches, slabs, etc... In this case, we installed piers onto this back porch to keep it from failing completely.

This bowed wall was very much a cause of concern for the people living above. The gap you see in the middle of the wall is most likely where the frost line is in the dirt outside of the basement. The frost line often correlates with where a wall bows inward because it is where the most pressure is exerted on the wall over time. We fixed the bowed wall by installing our PowerBrace system. The PowerBraces are designed to prevent floor joist damage, unlike other commonly seen repairs. They are also designed to stay rust free, and possibly straighten the wall back out over time. If you are considering a bowed wall repair, be sure to ask questions about the what the repair was designed to do by the installers.

This crawlspace was sinking and it was leaving the floor boards saggy. To fix this and stop the foundation from moving any further, we installed helical piers under the crawlspace. The piers were also able to raise the house back to normality. 

Many homes in the Hillsboro area are experiencing a certified draught, which is causing settlement issues for many homes. For this home, their back porch was sinking because of dried up soil, and so we installed piers to stabilize it.
