Pier Foundation
Pier foundation repair can be a necessary part of maintaining your home. As your foundation begins to age, it's possible that it may begin to crack or adjust, and that means that it could settle into a position that is not level.

When your home was built, its pier foundation sits on top of the unstable soil typical to our area; that can eventually lead to problems. The house may be able to go for years or decades without needing some work, but usually some correction needs to take place.
Your pier foundation could begin to suffer some damage over time, particularly after extended dry periods or rainy periods. Whether the conditions are very wet or very dry, it causes the soil underneath the foundation to either heave or subside. And unfortunately, the movement of the foundation is not uniform; therefore, one side of the house ends up being higher or lower than the other side.
That is where we come in, to repair your pier foundation. Your foundation is actually constructed of a series of piers and beams, and when there is a problem they need to be adjusted to compensate for the problem. Of course, prior to implementing the actual foundation repair, any excess water issues need to be addressed. If your house is for some reason accumulating water underneath, that needs to be resolved whether it’s a plumbing issue or some other source of water not being drained away properly.
Keep in mind that the pier foundation is the most important element in terms of the structure of your home. Literally everything in your home rests on the foundation. If you have any thoughts of selling your home, all foundation issues will need to be resolved (a house inspection will reveal any problems, and of course you would want to disclose everything to the potential seller anyway). You also need to have the foundation in good shape before considering doing any major remodeling or room additions; a pier foundation that has left to decay will only cause further problems as other modifications are done to the home.
