Symptoms of a Foundation Problem: Ceiling Cracks
The major problem with cracks is that if the main issues do not get taken care of, the cracks will only expand and get worse, as shown in this image.
Piers Installation Process: Location
Every location of each pier is very important, which is why choosing wisely where each pier will get installed is very important.
Piers Installation Process: Distance is Key
The distance between each pier depends on the weight of the house based on the type of material used to build the house since the closer the pier is, the more foundation support they provide.
Piers Installation Process: How Deep is Enough?
Every answer is different since every house got built differently and with different purposes. Normally, our foundation experts need to drill each pier until they reach the strata layer, which is approximately from 7 to 10 feet down below.
Piers Installation Process: Last Assessment
At this point, our foundation heroes complete a last assessment to determine if it is wise to lift the house foundation back to its original position.
After Piers Installation Process
As shown in this image, the holes got covered, and in some cases, our foundation heroes needed to pour new concrete into the hole. Thanks to Arizona Foundation Solutions, this family will no longer experience foundation problems ever again.
