This home had a crack above the dining room doorway that was concerning. After doing some research, the owner called Lowcountry Foundation Repair and we sent our team to install SmartJacks in the crawl space to support the floor that had settled underneath a wall.
We installed our foundation pier system by first assessing the property to identify the areas needing stabilization. Then, we excavated around the foundation, drilled steel piers deep into the stable soil, and secured them to the foundation. This method ensures long-lasting support while allowing the customer to proceed with their renovation plans confidently.
Helical piers were installed to stabilize the customer's settled foundation because they provide a reliable and effective solution for transferring the structure's weight to stable soil layers below. This method ensures long-term support and helps prevent further settling or structural damage.
We are always so joyous to be able to preserve the history of our local community and answer the call when it beacons. The Mars Theatre had concerns of stair step cracking that was appearing in the walls of the main room. After inspection and measurements, it was determined that piers were needed under the wall. Our expert crew came in and fortified this historic building for years to come.
