Home Foundation Repair Photo Album: Leaning Chimney Stabilized in Brunswick, GA

After Hurricane Matthew, Mary Jane W. of Brunswick, GA noticed a big problem with her chimney. It leaned away from the house and she worried about the safety of her grandchildren who played on the patio near it. Mary looked for chimney fixes, and came across photos and reviews from other customers who had similar problems that Lowcountry Basement Systems had fixed. Mary called Lowcountry Basement Systems and scheduled a free inspection of her problem. The inspector recommended a custom solution to stabilize the chimney and prevent it from falling further. A Helical Pier System on the front of the chimney would be mechanically “screwed” into the soil and attached to the foundation footing. The weight of the chimney could then be transferred to the load bearing strata deep in the ground.
