Solution

Assessment and Solution Foundation Repair of CA performed a thorough assessment of the home to identify the root cause of the settlement and provide a customized solution. After careful evaluation, the following steps were implemented:

Push Piers: To address the foundation settlement, galvanized steel Push Piers were installed. These piers reached stable soil beneath the foundation, providing the necessary support to both stabilize and lift the home back to its original position. This process mitigated further movement and restored structural integrity.

Concrete Removal: Old, cracked concrete around the home was removed to ensure a clean and level foundation for the next phase of the project.

New Concrete Path: A new concrete path was poured around the home to replace the removed sections. This not only improved the home's aesthetic appeal but also added durability and functionality to the outdoor areas.

Results The project successfully stabilized the home, addressing the homeowner's immediate concerns about settlement and cracking. The Push Piers provided a permanent solution for foundation support, while the new concrete path offered a clean, polished finish around the property.

Key outcomes included:

Stabilized and lifted foundation to prevent further settlement
Cracking in walls halted, with signs of improvement
Doors and windows returned to proper functionality
Enhanced curb appeal and usability of the outdoor space
