Cracked Foundation Fixed with Piers in Pooler, GA
This Pooler, GA homeowner started to notice problems with her home's foundation after Hurricane Irma hit in 2017. After the storm, her whole house seemed to have shifted. Her doors were not shutting properly and she noticed a crack in the middle of the foundation. After doing some research online, she decided to call Lowcountry Foundation Repair and schedule a free appointment with an inspector.
Lowcountry Foundation Repair sent Dan Friesen to Pooler to inspect the foundation. He recognized the same issues that the homeowner pointed out and suggested she have Push Piers installed. Push Piers stabilize your home’s foundation and in many cases can lift your home back to level.Steel pier sections are hydraulically driven through the bracket to bedrock or a stable soil level. Then, the weight of your home is transferred through the piers to the competent soil below, and a lift can be attempted to bring the home back to its original position.
After a few days of hard work from our installers, the Push Piers were installed and the foundation was back to its original level!
