Foundation Repair Photo Album: Push Piers Installed in Brentwood, TN
A few years after moving into their home, the homeowners realized that the cracks in and outside of their home were worsening. They were worried about the structure of their home, so they called Frontier!Our inspector came out and looked around their property. The cracks in their home were from it settling. This can sometimes happen when the soil under the home was not properly prepared before building on it, or natural causes, such as erosion. We had the perfect solution for them! Our inspector talked to them about our Push Pier System and the family agreed that that was the best solution! Push Piers are made of steel and are driven deep into the soil beneath a foundation to solve settlement problems.In many scenarios, push piers not only stop settlement but lift the foundation back to its original position, closing cracks and improving window and door operation.The family now has a lifted and supported foundation that they no longer have to worry about! Call us today if you see settlement signs in your home! Don't wait until it is too late! Free estimates and inspections are available.
