Foundation Settlement Repair in Lynchburg, Virginia
Challenge
Jon in Lynchburg, Virginia had started noticing signs that his home was settling. Cracks and subtle changes around the house made it clear that something was shifting beneath the foundation, and he wanted to address the problem before it became more serious. After inspecting the home, we found that unstable soil beneath the foundation was contributing to the settlement. The affected areas needed additional support to prevent the home from continuing to sink.
Solution
To stabilize the foundation, our crew installed 8 Helical Piers beneath the affected areas of the home. The piers extend through unstable soil and reach stronger, more reliable soil below, transferring the weight of the home to a stable supporting layer. This provides the foundation with long-term support and helps prevent further settlement.
