PolyLevel Installation Around Exterior of Home
PolyLevel is a two-part expanding foam material that can not only lift and relevel concrete slabs and decks, but can also allow for compaction and stabilization of loose soils that cause foundation problems.
Helical Pier Installation
Not only was PolyLevel used to stabilize the soils beneath this home, but galvanized steel piers were also drilled around sections of this home to add to the stabilization solution. Helical piers are drilled into the soil and attached to the footer of the home. These piers can be lifted simultaneously to relevel floors and close cracks.
Helical Pier Brackets Installation
Once helical piers are in place, a bracket is attached to the top and to the home as a permanent fixture. These brackets and piers are buried so they are not visible once the job is complete.
