Piers Installation Process: Is the location of every pier important?
Yes, the location of every pier is important t provide full foundation support to the specific room.
Piers Installation Process: How deep is enough?
One common question is, how deep is enough for each pier? Generally, our foundation repair team drills each pier until the strata layer is reached from 7 to 10 feet underground.
Piers Installation Process: Is distance important?
Yes, distance is important because depending on how far away each pier is, the foundation support changes. For example, the further away each pier is, the weaker the foundation support is, and the closer each pier is, the stronger the foundation support each pier provides.
Piers Installation Process: Is heavy machinery required?
Yes, heavy machinery such as excavators is required along with other specific tools for faster and more efficient performance.
Piers Installation Process: Protecting is Caring
Every time our foundation repair team goes to a project, they make sure to protect all surroundings from unfortunate events that might occur and damage the property, so they use plastic sheets to protect the floor, and sometimes the walls since a scratch can damage the painting.
Piers Installation Process: Last Assessment
Right before permanently attaching each pier with its assigned bracket, our foundation repair team needs to complete a last assessment to evaluate the current state of the home's foundation and determine if it is wise to lift the foundation back to its original position.
