Photo Album: Foundation problems in a house in Saint-Basile-Le-Grand, Qc
Problem:
The foundation of Mr. Gubic's house had started to get unstable. Our team had noticed many exterior and interior cracks on the walls.
Solution:
To solve this foundation problem, our experts install hydraulic piles under the foundation. A foundation pier system is a cost-effective foundation underpinning to repair and many times reverse foundation damage with minimal disruption to your home.
Stair Step Crack
A stair-step crack is apparent on the facade of the house. This type of crack is a sign that your home's foundation has sagged.
Horizontal crack
A horizontal crack like this is also a sign that the foundation is sagging.
Interior cracks
These had appeared when the foundation subsided.
The solution is to stake the foundation
To prevent the foundation from collapsing further, our team installed hydraulic piles under the foundation pad.
Hydraulic piles
Piers are long steel rods that are attached to the foundation footing of your home. They are pushed down below your house's foundation until they rest on solid ground or rock. The weight of your foundation and house is then transferred to that stable strata through the piers.
