Stair-step Wall Cracks
Large stair-step cracks had formed in multiple areas of the homeowner's exterior walls, a clear sign of foundation settlement.
Horizontal Wall Cracks
Horizontal cracks in the home's exterior walls were another clear sign of foundation settlement.
Installing Helical Piers
After excavating enough soil to expose the foundation's footer, the LRE team carefully installs each helical pier deep into the ground.
Complete Helical Pier Installation
Once the helical piers reach the proper depth, they are bracketed to the foundation's footer, transferring the home's weight to stronger soil layers below and effectively stabilizing the foundation.
Concealing Helical Piers
After each helical pier has been successfully installed and the foundation stabilized, the LRE team begins concealing each pier with the previously excavated soil, ensuring a neat and seamless appearance for the homeowner.
