Area of Settlement
The foundation wall was settling, causing a gap to appear at the door on the left and a stairstep crack had appeared at the bottom right of the window to the right.

During Helical Pier Installation

Installed Helical Pier
This is what one of the helical piers looks life after being installed.
Holes Backfilled and Tamped
The holes are backfilled with dirt and tamped down. Then the concrete can be repoured.
After Concrete
This is just after the concrete is re-poured. The concrete is still wet in this photo.
