We using our Foundation Helical Pier System to stabilize this customers settled foundation. Helical piers stabilize foundations by being screwed into the ground until they reach a stable soil layer. Brackets are then attached to the piers and the foundation, transferring the load from the unstable soil to the stable layer, effectively lifting and stabilizing the foundation.
Wall gaps and cracks form due to foundation settlement, which occurs when the soil beneath a home expands, contracts, or shifts, causing the foundation to move. This movement can lead to structural damage, including gaps and cracks in walls. Our SmartJack system helps by stabilizing and leveling the foundation, preventing further settlement and reducing the risk of additional damage.
Foundation piers were installed to repair our customer's settling foundation to stabilize and potentially lift the foundation back to its original position. These piers are driven deep into the ground until they reach stable soil layers, providing a solid support system to counteract soil movement and prevent further settling.
This Jacksonville property was showing signs of foundation settlement, including visible wall cracks and structural shifting. These symptoms are often caused by unstable or eroding soil beneath the building’s foundation.
To permanently stabilize the structure, our crew installed helical piers along the affected wall. These deep foundation supports are drilled into stable soil layers, transferring the building’s weight onto more reliable ground. This solution not only halts further settlement but also restores long-term stability and protects the integrity of the commercial space.
A Jacksonville homeowner noticed stair-step cracks forming in the brick around their home's foundation a common sign of foundation settlement. To address the issue at its source, our team installed helical piers beneath the affected area to stabilize the foundation and help prevent further movement. With the home now supported by stable load-bearing soils, the homeowner can have confidence in a lasting foundation repair solution.
