Foundation Piers

There are many signs the foundation of your home or business may need repair. If you have noticed cracks in any exterior walls or have doors that will not shut, your foundation may need repair. Left unaddressed, foundation problems that begin as a nuisance can develop into a full-blown safety hazard and require costly repairs. Many factors can contribute to foundation problems, including poor construction, soil erosion, and even Richmond’s particularly rainy climate. Over time all foundations will settle to varying degrees and our experts at Stable Foundations can determine the level of damage.

One solution to your foundation issues are foundation piers. Foundation piers are large helical rods that are screwed deep into the soil around your foundation and attached to the concrete footer of the foundation. Adding support and stabilization preventing any further settlement. Piers transfer the weight of your home from the shallow ground it was built on to the reliable sturdiness of earth deep below the surface, known as load bearing soil. This effectively provides the support your home needs. There are many benefits to using this method. Foundation piers do not require large equipment, extensive excavation, or a lengthy a installation process.
