Lisa S. of Kathleen, GA. had a problem with her foundation. Three of the foundation piers in her crawl space sank into the soil and no longer supported the joists or subfloor. Just a few weeks ago, she listed her home for sale, then she realized the problem would need to be fixed before selling or she ran the risk of losing money on the sale! Lisa went online and read reviews for Lowcountry Foundation Repair on HomeAdvisor. She called for a free inspection of her crawl space.
The inspection confirmed the sagging beams in the crawl space as they were no longer supported. Lowcountry Foundation Repair installed a galvanized steel Push Pier System of tubes, hydraulically driven through steel foundation brackets to reach competent load-bearing strata. Once locked into place the weight of Lisa’s home was transferred from the original, unstable soils, through the piers, to the competent soil below. Her foundation was supported again and ready for sale at full asking price!
