Sinking Entryway Slab Stabilized with Helical Piers in Advance, NC

This homeowner in Advance, NC began noticing signs of foundation settlement around their entryway slab, including uneven concrete, separation near the doorway, and soil erosion along the foundation. These symptoms often point to unstable or shifting soil beneath the slab, which can cause sections of the home’s exterior to sink over time.

To provide a permanent solution, our team installed helical piers beneath the affected area. These steel piers are driven deep into stable, load-bearing soil to bypass weak surface layers responsible for the settlement. By transferring the weight of the structure to more reliable ground, the piers help stabilize the slab and prevent further movement.

 

Once installation was complete, the area was backfilled and restored, leaving a clean, seamless finish. With helical piers in place, this entryway is now supported by a strong, long-lasting foundation giving the homeowner peace of mind and protection against future settlement.

Push Pier Installation to Prevent Water Intrusion - Garage Repair in King, NC

In King, NC, this homeowner was dealing with water consistently leaking into their garage from under the door even with a seal already installed. After a detailed inspection, we discovered the real issue: foundation settlement beneath the garage slab, which caused the floor to sink and create gaps where water could easily enter.

To address both the structural concern and the water intrusion, our team installed push piers inside the basement. These steel piers were hydraulically driven deep into stable soil and securely attached to the home’s footing, allowing us to stabilize and lift the foundation where needed.

 

Once the structural work was complete, we restored the area with fresh concrete sealing the job and ensuring a smooth, level finish. Now, this garage is protected from further settlement and ready to handle heavy rains without letting a drop inside.

Stabilizing a Settling Porch with Helical Piers - King, NC

This home in King, NC was experiencing foundation settlement around the porch area, shown through visible gaps near the downspout, soil pulling away from the brick, and sinking concrete. These symptoms are classic signs that the supporting soils have weakened over time, causing the structure above to shift and drop.

To permanently restore stability, our team installed Helical Piers, a deep-foundation solution designed to reach load-bearing soil far beneath the problem area. The crew carefully excavated the perimeter, secured hydraulic equipment, and drove each pier to the proper depth to transfer the home’s weight off the failing soil and onto stable strata.

 

This installation stops further sinking and provides long-term support for the porch and foundation. Thanks to this repair, the homeowner now has a safe, stabilized structure with peace of mind knowing the settlement has been professionally corrected.
