Steel push piers
Steel push piers are the best choice for homes that need to be lifted when doing foundation repairs. These push piers are driven to rock or load bearing soils and then can lift a home back to its original state. Drywall cracks can be closed, windows and doors can once again be opened and shut and exterior brick cracks will go away. The function of steel piers is the support and stabilization of your homes load bearing walls as a permanent solution. |
If your home need foundation repair work done, contact a foundation repair contractor and a foundation engineer to specify the type, location and capacities of the steel piers needed on your home. |
